They're all dead right now. Very little foot traffic.

If anything, it's probably safer to go in T&T than a Loblaws.

Whatever. Anyway, I'm not a fan of the Fri-Sat-Sun sales either but it's hard to turn down these prices. I sense wings on the grill this weekend.

If you live in Scarborough, ON, Freshland has it for $1.68/lb

I'm not Chinese but in almost every Chinese/Asian supermarkets I've been to these days in Toronto, they provide you a free pair of nylon gloves and hand sanitizer to wash your hands at the entrance, whereas I don't see those at non-Asian ones

Are the chicken wings for $2/lb cheaper than @ costco?

Hey the $1.99/lb wings are pretty decent. But their chicken breasts aren't actually that good I find.

T&T is loblaws owned anyways i think

Anyone have a good hookup for basic asian groceries online?

Would love some pho spices and rice vermicelli, among others

Lol, you people just love to argue about anything eh?

On topic, my post in the first page mentions the $1.68 deal of wings, even better that it is a whole week deal, not just weekend.

Byecha!

I've been to T&T at Vaughan and Markham lately and they actually haven't been crazy busy. Often, I've seen lines at No Frills and Walmart,

I got a box of face masks at H-Mart on North Road two blocks south of Lougheed. It is a Korean grocery store and 99% of the people were wearing masks.

Much cheaper. Costco is $10/kg but has no wing tips.

is there a difference in quality?

I've never tried Costco wings before but I'm told they may by bigger. In my opinion, though, there's no way they're two or three times bigger or better. The regular price of wings nowadays is ridiculous, being 4 or 5 bucks a pound. That's getting to breast pricing.

Haven't tried the T&T yet, too early for dinner today

Probably not much difference in quality, except the tips have no meat.

Agreed. Though I usually separate the whole wing - drum, flat, and tip and grill them all and nibbles on the tips.
