Mexican Sandwiches - Las Tortas

Mexican sandwiches now available in Vancouver BC Canada at La Tortas 3353 Cambie Street. I came across this the other day when I was walking down cambie. The sandwiches had a ton of filling and the prices started at about $6.00. From what I could tell, they looked like regular sandwiches, but who knows the sandwich flavour could be to die for.

If you beat me to trying it out, provide me with your comments here.

Hidden Mexican Restaurant Dive on Dunbar

There is a great hidden Mexican Dive on Dunbar Street. It is called Mexicali Restaurant. The ironic part is it does not seem to be owned by Mexicans. Not the fanciest looking place, but great food.

The prices are cheap and unbelievable. For example:

2 soft tacos
+lime slush/pop
= $6.00

You can lunch or dinner under $10.00.

I go there at least once a week, yummy to my tummy :)

Lululemon Boxing Day

Lululemon boxing day wasn't bad, it all depends on what you are looking for. Things weren't that cheap, but some discount is better than nothing at all. I have to say the discounts were better than the ones you get at their warehouse.

Sale items were sorted out by size, so you were easily able to go in there and try what you want and grab and go.

The sale is still on so get there as soon as possible.

Breakfast and Sushi at a Bargain - Yummy Sushi

Yummy Sushi at 4th and Pine offers cheap breakfast and sushi specials all day. I have not been there yet personally myself, but people say the food is decent. Breakfasts with bacon, eggs, toast and more are $2.95 and 18 piece sushi sets are like $4.99.

Whatever you do, don't expect ambience inside this dive. It somewhat reminds me of a trucker stop cafe.

Spices for 50 cents

I did not think you could buy a cheap package of spices anymore for under a buck. However, with allot of patient shopping I finally found a place that does. So, if you love cooking, this place is a deal :)

I bought oregano for $0.50 cents. That's right, 50 cents.

Have fun shopping!

Gas Prices Down

Okay Kitsilano residents, the gas prices are finally down, but you probably do not need to worry about this since a majority of things are inside of walking distance. The last time I checked it was 118.4 compared to last week at about 131.2 to 132.2. Craziness!

Best Place for Affordable Fresh Produce

I just found today a place on 4th avenue where you can buy fresh fruits and veggies for allot cheaper than Safeway and Capers. They even carry organic goods like Capers, but for less.
