One way of saving money is to pay attention of the shops where the prices are cheaper. Here I have a list of some of these places:
Groceries:
- Super Store (Burnaby)
- No Frills:
- Alma and 4th avenue
- Fir and 4th avenue
- Broadway and Cambie
Both of them are from the same owners
- Fruit and vegetables: Young Brothers and Balaclava (only cash)
Beauty, health wellness, homeware, photo lab, electronics, etc.:

There are located in a many places around the city
Home furnishing, living room, bed, kitchen
Located in Burnaby
Also there are some stores that sell used items:
In Macdonald and Broadway there is one that is from the Salvation Army Thrift Store.
To conclude this web page is excellent to find jobs, used items, sell items, etc.
