Frito-Lay stops shipping chips to Loblaws stores in pricing dispute. At issue is a dispute over pricing between Frito-Lay Canada and Loblaw Companies Ltd. Frito-Lay, the maker of brands like Cheetos, Doritos, Lays, Ruffles and Sunchips, says it’s trying to recoup higher costs. The situation has left the chip and snack food aisle of many Loblaw stores less full than usual, or stocked with house brands, such as President’s Choice or No Name.

Frito-Lay spokesperson Sheri Morgan confirmed there is a “temporary disruption” with one customer. “Our business has faced unprecedented pressures from rising costs of items including ingredients, packaging and transportation,” she said in an email. “To help offset these pressures on our Canadian operations … we have made adjustments to our prices that are consistent across the marketplace.”

Loblaw spokesperson Catherine Thomas said the grocer is “laser focused” on minimizing retail price increases. “When suppliers request higher costs, we do a detailed review to ensure they are appropriate,” she said in an email. “This can lead to difficult conversations and, in extreme cases, suppliers don’t ship us products.”

The rift between Frito-Lay and Loblaw exposes deepening tensions in Canada’s food industry that many experts say could worsen as supply chain challenges and inflation continue. Some argue that grocery retailers are simply trying to keep sticker prices low for consumers and stop suppliers from using inflation to justify unreasonable price hikes.

This week Shoppers Drug Mart Canada has a gift card offer that may be of interest to some of you. Until February the 25th, get 5,000 PC Optimum points for every $50 that you spend on Gap Inc. Brand gift cards at Shoppers Drug Mart Canada.

Because the offer is for every $50 spent, you are able to purchase multiples and the 5,000 points will multiply. However, this offer will not combine with other personal spend offers that you have, like 20x the PC Optimum points, etc. 5,000 PC Optimum points for every $50 spent is the equivalent of 10% back in points, and while this is not the highest return we’ve seen for Gap gift cards, some of you might need to purchase things at Gap brands in the next short while. Some savings is certainly better than none.

You will not see the points for this on receipt at the end of your transaction, but the points will be awarded to your account within two to four weeks. Keep your receipts in the event that you do not see the points and need to contact customer service.
