Best Deals by Category

Produce

Fresh produce did not surface in this week's top-flagged Ontario deal set from eezly's tracking, which is typical in early May when local Ontario growing season hasn't yet hit full stride and produce promotions tend to be store-specific rather than chain-wide. Your best produce strategy this week is to shop the perimeter at No Frills, Food Basics, or FreshCo for in-store-only markdowns, and to lean on frozen vegetables (see Frozen Foods below) for predictable savings. If you're cooking Mediterranean or Italian dishes this week, pair the discounted Hunt's tomato sauces from Fortinos with fresh basil and onion — the sauce discount alone effectively subsidizes the fresh aromatics.

Dairy & Eggs

The headline dairy deal in Ontario this week is Agropur Signature Notre-Dame Brie Cheese at $5.49 at Food Basics, down from $7.99 — a 31% saving and flagged as the best price across stores in eezly's tracking as of May 2026. This is a meaningful discount because specialty brie typically sits between $7.50 and $9.00 across Loblaws, Metro, and Sobeys-banner stores in the GTA, making Food Basics the clear winner for cheese boards or baked brie this week.

If you're building a charcuterie spread, you can pair the brie with the discounted Hunt's pasta sauces from Fortinos (used as a quick bruschetta topping) and the Grace jack mackerel for an inexpensive pâté-style appetizer.

Meat & Poultry

This week's eezly-flagged top deals in Ontario do not include fresh meat or poultry features, which means your best play is to lean on the canned-fish deal: Grace Jack Mackerel in Tomato Sauce, 425 g at $3.99 at Food Basics (regular $4.49). Jack mackerel is a high-protein, shelf-stable substitute for canned tuna or salmon at roughly half the price per gram, and the in-sauce format makes it a one-can meal over rice or pasta. For fresh chicken, beef, and pork this week, your most reliable Ontario banners for rotating discounts continue to be No Frills, FreshCo, and Food Basics — check the in-store flyer on arrival for last-minute manager markdowns on protein nearing best-before dates.

Pantry Staples

Pantry staples are the deepest category this week, with four standout markdowns. Hunt's Roasted Garlic Tomato Sauce and Hunt's Thick & Rich Spicy Red Pepper Pasta Sauce are both $1.79 at Fortinos (regular $2.79 each, 36% off) — a strong stock-up price given that comparable jarred sauces routinely sell for $3.49 to $4.99 at full price elsewhere in Ontario. Club House Ground Cumin 90 g at $4.99 at Fortinos (regular $7.99) is the spice deal of the week, with a 38% saving on a jar size that typically lasts a household six to twelve months.

Rounding out the category, Campbell's Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup at $1.88 at Food Basics is 24% off and useful as a base for casseroles and broccoli soup, and National Mango Custard Powder at $1.79 at Food Basics is a small but real 10% saving for South Asian dessert recipes.

Frozen Foods

The frozen-foods winner in Ontario this week is McCain Frozen Diced Hashbrowns, 800 g at $2.49 at Food Basics, down from $2.99 — a 17% saving and the best price across stores per eezly's tracking. At roughly $3.11/kg for prepped potatoes, this is meaningfully cheaper than buying whole russets and dicing them yourself once you factor in waste and labour. Diced hashbrowns are versatile for breakfast skillets, casseroles, and shepherd's-pie toppings, and they freeze indefinitely, making this a smart bulk-buy if you have freezer space.

How to Maximize Your Savings This Week

You can comfortably save 25-40% on a representative weekly basket if you split your shopping between Food Basics and Fortinos this week. Here are three specific strategies built around the deals above.

1. Run a two-store route: Food Basics first, Fortinos second. Food Basics is carrying seven of this week's top ten deals — including the brie, the hashbrowns, the Campbell's soup, and the headline Reese's clearance — so it should be your primary stop. Add a Fortinos run for the Hunt's pasta sauces and the Club House cumin, which together save you about $5.50 versus regular prices and are unlikely to repeat at this depth for several weeks. Skipping the second store costs you roughly $5-$6 in unrealized savings; making the trip is worth it if Fortinos is within a reasonable detour of your Food Basics.

2. Stock up on shelf-stable winners now. The Hunt's pasta sauce at $1.79 and Club House cumin at $4.99 are both prices that will be hard to beat for the next four to six weeks. If you cook pasta-based meals weekly, buying six jars of Hunt's sauce now saves you $6.00 versus regular price and locks in your pasta-night budget. The cumin jar, at 90 g, is a six-to-twelve-month supply for most households — the 38% discount won't come around often.

3. Use the Reese's clearance as a freezer item. At $0.32 per package, the Reese's White Creme Peanut Butter Eggs are a 75% markdown driven by post-Easter inventory clearance. Chocolate freezes well for three to six months, so buying a handful now gives you cheap lunchbox treats, baking inclusions, or ice-cream toppings well into summer. This is the clearest stock-up signal in this week's data.
