From gas to groceries, Ottawa residents are paying more

With Canada’s inflation rate at a new 18-year high, many shoppers are searching out the best deals to save on their grocery bills.

"If you go to this store and then you go down the road to another one, same people and they're just picking up the specials," shopper Juanita Vetter said. 

The inflation rate jumped to 4.7 per cent in October. That means people are paying more for everything from gas to groceries.

"Steak and all the meat," said one shopper, of items that he's noticed have gone up in price. "Nothing is coming down, everything’s go up."

"Compared to last year, we're up maybe 10, 12 dollars a grocery order maybe a little more but with everything that's happening that's not that bad," said Ron Albert.
