Rice prices have increased dramatically. In one of the Indian stores in Kitchener, most of the brands are around $15 for the 10 pound bag and the cheapest one is now $10. How is it like in GTA? Prices would have gone up there too but have they gone up by $4-$5 for the 10 pound bag?

Raj,
I have not been to the KW Indian store. I went to the Sri Lankan shop(Udaya's at Kipling and Steels) just last week and got 8 Lb. Sona Masoori for $4. The rice is not as good as the Ravi Brand Sona Massori (The best we have tasted so far) but is OK.It also sells 8 lb. Idly rice for $4.
I had once bought Basmathi rice from a Indian store in Kitchener (10 pounds for $6.99) and it was horrible. I belive that the Indian store in KW does not sell good stuff.
Anyways, I pass by your house everyday (to and from work) and would be pleased to take your order for rice and pulse and deliver it to you as a token of our friendship. I will also try to hoard up rice and pulses for myself as soon as possible. Our apartment offers a 8' X 8' storage space in the basement for around $10 a month.
Peace out

Raj and Others,
I visited Udhayas (Kipling and Steels) yesterday. It is a Sri Lankan Shop.
They had increased the price of Rice by 20 %.
8 Ld. Idly rice which was $3.99 is not $4.99
8 Lb. Andhra Sona Massori Rice (Eating rice) which was $3.99 is not $4.99
I have hoarded Idly rice and Sona Massori rice for 3 months
The price of pulses remain the same. Around $4.99 for a 4 lb. bag of Toor Dal.
I invite people who visit Indian / Sri Lankan stores in Scarborough and Mississauga to detail the price of Rice for CD's. I am specifically looking for Ravi Brand Sona Massori Rice. I am looking to hoard this rice in our basement locker and distribute it among friends (for the same price that I bought in the GTA and in the Guelph/ KW/ Ca,bridge area) as a token of our friendship.
Peace out

Last week I bought Zaika basmati rice as the price for Tilda was nearly 16 dollars for 10 lbs. I dont remember the price for Zaika, but will post it soon. I live in Scarborough.
