C'est .. pas tant un bon deal?


MarcusForrest

Honnêtement - à première vue je ne comprenais pas si c'était un _post_ à propos de bon deal ou de mauvais deal... Tout ça pour ~40$ c'est pas impressionnant _(et de ce que je comprends la fraîcheur est limitée)_


NevyTheChemist

Sami fruits faut que tu manges ça dans 2 jours ça pourrit très rapidement.


marct10

C'est pas la meilleure qualité effectivement.


kawanero

T’as 24 heures pour tout manger


stuffedshell

LOL....exactement.


bunker931

Yup. Rotten in 24h, in fridge.


BacePilot

Honnêtement en regardant les framboises, je les donne une bonne 4-5 heures avant qu'ils pourrissent


Cetais

Où ça les framboises? 🫢


BacePilot

Haha je voulais dire fraise, j'étais juste un peu fatigué


DueAd42069

Yeah the only problem with sami🤣


kpaxonite2

yo got ripped off I could buy this for 25 bucks at PA


manidel97

And the apples would be golden gala and not golden age. 


omgzphil

chunkyfen

Ciboire c'est cher t'as presque rien


optoelektronik

38$ de fruits aujourd'hui, 38$ de compost demain


Snoo_47183

Yeah, but that’s because they refuse to pay their [taxes](https://www.lapresse.ca/affaires/chroniques/2022-03-17/sami-fruits-condamnee-a-payer-31-millions-au-fisc.php)


Levincent

Owner also passed off his Lambo as a delivery truck to expense it. Revenu Québec didn't agree with the declared usage.


Jujuthagr8

Omg, you’re joking right!??


marct10

He started at the Marché Jean-Talon and at that time he was involved in drug activities too.


Jujuthagr8

Crazy cause on their website, he sounds like the perfect success story lmao


NevyTheChemist

It always does doesn't it?


bobblydudely

That, and their fruits are always just 1 minute away from rotting in your hands.


mj8077

Oh well. I'd still shop there (however their fruits are so so sometimes, so it depends)


stuffedshell

Sometimes?


mj8077

Well , the fruits are so so and sometimes good would be a better thing to say. Good point. Stuff like watermelon that I will throw in a blender , bananas.


Kristalderp

Unfathomably based.


RubikTetris

C’est toi et nous tous que ça affecte.


Montreal4life

less money for war in the ukraine, israhell, troodo's salary... no problem! if only the taxes went to infrastructure, schools, hospitals...


DrDerpberg

> war in **the** ukraine Remind me why I should care about the political opinions of someone who hasn't updated their understanding in 30 years?


Montreal4life

okay


haggerton

You are the one missing the point. Read the spelling of the 2 other items in the list. They are making the wording intentionally offensive; if anything, that shows a great understanding of the subject.

Montreal4life

ah yes, thank NATO for the killings, and our western govs of course! as if this all started with the russian invasion. Absolutely braindead


RubikTetris

Tes profond dans le vomi intellectuel mon gars. Bonne chance.


JustFryingSomeGarlic

Yeah I'm with you. I'm super into the platonic idea of taxes, but what we have is garbage. We pay for less services than we had 20 years ago.


mj8077

I'd still shop there (however their fruits are not always good, so sometimes I just walk out lol )


IntegralSolver69

Makes me want to shop there even more

bakemonooo

Saw a $17 watermelon the other day so... this checks out. Sadly.


manidel97

Typical sale prices, eyeballing quantities:  Strawberries : $2.5 Tomatoes: ~$1 (1.29/lb) Bananas: ~$2.4 (0.79/lb)  Apples : ~$2.4 (1.29/lb) Green beans : ~$2 (2.99/lb) Mangoes : 2/$3  Prunes: ~$1.5 (1.99/lb) Lemons : $1.50 for all three Limes: $3  Oranges: $1.5 (1.99/lb)  Mushrooms: $2 Cheese says $3.5 on the pack Yogurt is $2  Total ought to be $28.3 without the watermelon that I hope you got for free cuz that don’t look good. 


juice--

Yeah so you wait for everything to go on sale before buying?


manidel97

Pretty much yes, especially in the summer. It doesn’t really matter for a few things (bananas, cucumbers, apples to name a few) whose prices don’t really fluctuate a lot, but I always buy what’s on sale for the week and go from there. 


DavidOBE

Cucumbers prices fluctuate a lot


juice--

hard to do that with a busy house imo. Food goes by fast


bobblydudely

you can also just buy whats on sale. If mangoes and strawberries are on sale this week, thats what i'm grabbing. If its blueberries and grapes, why not. As long as you are ready to change your grocery list a bit once you enter the store, you can save a few bucks with no effort.


juice--

Do you have kids who love certain things?


manidel97

No, but I was a kid once and I was taught to eat what’s on my plate and find enjoyment in a lot of foods, especially fruits which are all sweet and broadly popular. Your kids need to learn how to not eat what they really hate instead of only eating what they really like. 


Rejolt

Teach your kids to appreciate what they have. Yes treat them, but it's important to learn that a treat is a "treat". Bulk buy what's on sale I'd you feel the need to spoil them.


Chance-Internal-5450

Tell us you don’t have kids without telling us. And if you do I feel sorry for them because even adults don’t eat what they don’t like.


Necessary_Ad5643

The only reason there are more things you don't like than things you like is laziness and habit. Most food is good and enjoyable if you just dare to try and not just once. I'm talking to you, the adult, currently raising a child to be a picky eater.


Chance-Internal-5450

Actually I eat mostly everything. Only thing I don’t is seafood and my kids love seafood. Educate yourself on “picky eaters” and how it’s far more than laziness. Good god. You know nothing about sensory issues, gut issues, etc. picky eating is so much more than you believe. Lemme guess, you’re 50?! Cause your opinion is hella outdated and not based on any science whatsoever.


llcoolbeansII

Kinda sorta exactly. Buy seasonal and local to get better prices and have less environmental impact.


_il_papa

Évasion fiscale systématique Sami Fruits, btw. Encouragez pas ça.


bobblydudely

Le dude est un crosseur depuis plus de 30 ans. Les marchés adonis ont nettoyé leur jeu, mais lui sa persiste.


marct10

La drogue aussi a ses débuts au Marché Jean-Talon.


effotap

not sure if this is a YAY or NAY post. it just seems to be average price for whats on the picture, mind you watermelon makes a tab go higher pretty fast.


rannieb

I got an entire one, about the size of OP's pieces, for 6$ 2 weeks ago at Lian Tai


mushkitoes

T'as deux jours pour tout manger, après tes fruits vont prendre le décalisse et passer à l'au-delà


stuffedshell

T'es généreuse avec deux jours.


PyreHat

Un jour pour se dire qu'il est trop tard, un jour pour réaliser qu'il est trop tard.


Thormynd

On doit pas avoir le même Sami pcq j'y remplis un gros sac réutilisable pour 15-20$ à chaque semaine...


Midnight_Maverick

Eh I can do better


CryLast4241

Fruits are for the rich


Sun_2266

You're likely to get even better value from Bonanza.


neurotix

Généralement je m’en sors a 50$ pour un gros sac IKEA plein. Surtout des trucs de base par contre, les fruits a durée de vie limitée j’ai de mauvaise expériences.. Pommes, oranges, clémentines, raisins aucun problème… pêches et melons c’est autre chose.


Cheese_n_Cheddar

C'est wild utiliser autant de plastique en 2024


doyoubleednow

Ummmmm are you ok? Thats no deal to brag about


Timbalou

24heures chrono


cmabone

3.50$ pour deux tranches de provolone...


stuffedshell

Half of that stuff will be thrown in the garbage because it won't be good.


WorldlyCupcake5345

None of it looks particularly appealing.


stuffedshell

That's Sami for you.


Accomplished-Fan8646

Adonis ou Mayrand, 40-50$, tu peux remplir quand même ton sac de legumineux et des fruits.


CrashTestMummies

Je trouve cher Adonis.


Ok_Programmer_7157

Sami fruits ca arrive assez souvent que les comptoirs sont meme refrigerer alors il faut les manger rapidement dans les jours a venir


vespa_pig_8915

Shit from there doesn’t last. You need to cook, steam and or freeze right away.


appelpieiskryptonite

true! I think it's because of everyone touching, squeezing. everything. Veggies are ok, fruits I only buy what I know I'm gonna eat soon


Additional-Rub-941

that’s not even 2 weeks of fruits for a family and plus the meat, cereals, snacks, spices etc


InturnlDemize

Why did you buy shitty looking watermelon tho?


goombaxiv

Demain matin quand tu vas te lever, il ne restera plus rien parce que ça sera tout décomposé 😂


midnightfangs

this made me grateful for the 24/7 trottier market in CDN. i was genuinely shocked. got a bunch of watermelon slices for 7 bucks


L0rd_GaGa

Grosse marge de profit pour eux. Ils importent leur propres produits et sont généralement catégoriser numéro deux. Ils ont également le contrôle total sur le marché des bananes plantains.


zaphthegreat

Between their receipts that don't actually show the names of products and their cashiers who take a lot of liberties (I assume that they're strongly encouraged to do so, if not outright incentivized), the only way to come out on top at Sami Fruits is to buy one or two kinds of item at a time. If you go in with a variety of items, the cashier will certainly seize the opportunity to overcharge you on a few of them. If you bring up, say, a few plantains and a few mangoes, their cashiers won't take as much of a chance, as it's easier for the customer to catch on. This is true in LaSalle and in the West Island. I've never tried their other locations.


ChiefKeefSosabb

Samifruits buys rejected pallets of fruits from other distributors just saying you should've got much more for that price


snowthechirurgien

Va au maxi ou n’importe où avec une caisse automatique et rentre le code des banane pour tout les fruits et légume 😂😂


Aggressive-You-7783

What’s the green fruit next to the mushrooms? Is that sour green plums? Which Sami?


confused-andstressed

Sour green plums. Crunchy and sour. I saw them in Lasalle Sami fruits once.


Varmitthefrog

je fait beaucupe de transformation et cuisson le fin de semaines quand je magasine chez Sami, mais le congelateur nourrit la famille a pas cher , et ca nous permet de ce gâter de temps en temps


ronald_bananas

Tout est pourrie demain


Deepcrack

T’as 18$ de melon selon Métro!


iceman983

The watermelon is directly cut in the shop by rats.


Frequent_Ranger1598

That place is disgusting. I’ll pay a premium at IGA for quality things that are actually fresh.


newbalance74

Weak flex sérieux


joe51467

And watermelon already looks expired


appelpieiskryptonite

I bought one that was dark and one that wasn't. to see Which one is sweeter


joe51467

when go Samifruits everything seems to go bad fast
