Regina shoppers react to lower food prices

The price of food has been going down, but have customer’s noticed the difference?

Last month, food prices had their first year-over-year decline in nearly 17 years and the price of food was down 2 per cent.

980 CJME went out and asked shoppers if they noticed a change in the price of their food.

“I try to ignore the price of food and basically, we try to eat healthy but having said that, I also try to buy everything at a discount,” said Glenys Eberle.

“They’re not low, but they are lower,” Kristine Douaud said.

“Not a lot. Certain things, yeah, but not everything,” said Sherri Toronchuk

“Gone down? Absolutely not, its gone sky high,” Sylvia Derkatch said.

“No I haven’t but I don’t monitor it that closely anyways,” said Dennis King
