Ultimate Lemon Creme Biscuits

Location: Dundas West dollarama across from the station

Price: $2.5 CAD

Also I checked supermarkets for similar and it's stupid out there. $3.49 for the exact same thing in metro, and that's the special membership cost.

Made in Canada. We are SLEEPING on local in times where now more than ever! (valley girl voice) we need to build our own economy instead of relying on others!!
