We got an email in from Stevie that says, not sure where the old man lives, but Food Basics has Primo mixed beans on sale for just $1.49 per can.
Andrew YoungHOST
Normally about two bucks, just saying.
Andrew YoungHOST
Somebody mention my name?
Mr. GreenHOST
Yeah, Steve Eve wrote in to say that Food Basics has a really good deal on mixed beans right now.
Mr. GreenHOST
$1.49 a can, apparently.
Andrew YoungHOST

I live in a little village outside of Toronto known as Pickering, and they got a Food Basics.
Vince GaetanoHOST
You don't have to go to Metro.
Vince GaetanoHOST
You could go to Food Basics.
Vince GaetanoHOST
They're all the same company, but they obviously have different price points on the same product.
Vince GaetanoHOST
Do some math.
Shane HewittHOST
I was at the grocery store looking for eggnog because it's awesome.
Shane HewittHOST
And I had a shift head text in and say, hey, get it at Food Basics.
Shane HewittHOST
So I went to Food Basics.
Shane HewittHOST
You know what else they had, though? What? Pumpkin spice eggnog.
Sylvain CharleboisGUEST
It's not a first.
Shane HewittHOST
Uh, 90 mil- Is that enough now to buy the ticket? I think that's enough to get the ticket.
Shane HewittHOST
When I go to Food Basics to get the eggnog, thank you texter, I love you, I, um, I, maybe I'll get a Lotto Max ticket, and we'll decide on Friday if we're coming to work or not.
Shane HewittHOST
What are the odds of you winning? 'Cause if you're anywhere else in Canada, you're like, "Let me guess.
Shane HewittHOST
Someone from Ontario won?" Well, statistically, that's where most people are, so that's where most people buy tickets.

It's dynamically changed based on you and your digital avatar, if you will.
Richard SyrettHOST
How did they get away with that? I mean, is that even, is that legal, first of all? And secondly, when I, here in Canada anyway, I go to the food basics and I want to buy a tin of beans and it says, I don't know, $2.49 for a tin.
Richard SyrettHOST
How are they gonna, how do they do this? What are the mechanics?
Sarah WestallGUEST
Well, they can't have, you can't have prices on there, right? It has to be like online, the prices are, you might think they're just posted, but they can be posted different for you than for me.

Richard SyrettHOST
They are in a mad rush, the government that is, to make us all wardens of the state.
Richard SyrettHOST
We have in this country, which should be among the richest nations on earth with our resources, we have 2 million Canadians visiting a food bank every month.
Richard SyrettHOST
And every time I go to Food Basics, I'm asked, you know, would you like to contribute to the food bank? And I say, if you raise any prices anymore, I'll be going to the food bank.
Richard SyrettHOST
They are really pushing universal basic income in this country.
Alexander DeBeradinisHOST
That's why I've been so busy.
Alexander DeBeradinisHOST

Alexander DeBeradinisHOST
Um, again, staying busy.
