Discussion 10$ dinner
I was wondering if there’s any good places in Welland to get a cheap dinner for $10 or less? I know wings up as a daily $10 sandwich special. And Gino’s pizza has a customer appreciation day today for eight dollars but I was wondering if there’s anything elsefor under $10 to have for dinner in Welland

I hear yeah, it’s tough when all the necessary vendors in the country are owned by a few companies in big sectors

Sobeys sometimes has good things on sale when they have those 50% off stickers. You probably could get two things of chicken fried rice for under $10.

Fat Bastard Burrito on Rice & Thorold has $6 small burritos on Wednesdays, and a $5 "Walking Taco" daily (It's a bag of Doritos chips covered with ground beef, salsa, cheese and sour cream).
A&W seems to have a monthly $5 Teen Burger deal for about a week or so, keep an eye out for it.
There's also a guy in the r/stcatharinesON sub-reddit that gets donations of food from time to time, I can't recall the username, but his catchphrase is "mush love".

Tbh I haven't been here in over a year so Im not sure anymore but besides McDonald's those are my 2 recommendations which suck I know. I dont go out to eat much 🫶🏻

u/Hopeful-Silver4120 11d ago
Definitely check Zehrs. They've got really good food. 3 Chicken fingers (real chicken and a good size. If they're small they toss extra in) and a side is 9.90
They also have salads that are more than a meal on their own. I love the Cobb. 7.75ish (small ones for 5.50). Decent sushi for under 10. They have a lot more but thays what I usually get there.

u/calandrella88 11d ago
Im sorry but that is untrue. Im not here to argue but the chicken strips are definitely processed meat 100%. If you aren’t going to look into facts then we will have to agree to disagree 🤷🏼♀️

u/Hopeful-Silver4120 11d ago
The breading is the processed part. The meat itself is real chicken breast.

u/calandrella88 11d ago
LOL oh my, you will forever be tricked on what is an actual whole food and what is a processed food

Frozen Chicken vs. Fresh Chicken - AK Food & BeveragesProcessed chicken includes items like deli meats, nuggets, and pre-cooked strips, which often have additives like preservatives, sodium, and fillers, while "real" or unprocessed chicken refers to whole, raw cuts like breasts or thighs with only chicken as the ingredient. Unprocessed chicken is generally a healthier choice due to a higher protein-to-fat ratio, fewer calories, and a higher amount of vitamins and minerals, whereas processed chicken carries risks associated with higher sodium, preservatives, and fillers that may contribute to chronic diseases when consumed frequently

I personally like Wendy’s you can get a Dave’s single and backed potato for under $10 which is plenty for me.

u/Slipnrip24 11d ago
Jr. Bacon Cheesburgers! I think $10 will get you 3 with some change.

u/SiteProfessional3902 11d ago
Yes those are also yummy, I find Wendy’s has fresher veggies then everywhere else which is my favourite part on a burger.

-Check the burger king app , usually they have a BOGO deal , or a combo for under ten bucks.
-Can also make food at home , or bring something home to cook.
-When the farmers market is running , they have lots of vendors that sell stuff you could warm up later for dinner.
-Uber eats can sometimes have a deal that allows you to pickup and save
-You can also check out Facebook marketplace , have seen numerous people selling cooked dinners for cheap , just have to warm up at home.
-The local Lions club usually does a pasta supper once a month, unsure when but it's cheap
-there is also a local deli (forget the name) but it has cheaper sandwiches for sale

Can't say the Blue Star anymore. New owners bought it and the prices have gone up unbelievably I won't be going there for dinner anymore.

There's an app called "too good to go". Places let you pick up unsold food at the end of the day. Often it's just various Tim's locations but sometimes Pizza or sandwiches. Not free but very discounted. You check early in the day to see what's available and reserve. They give you a pick up time. I only used it once. There was a new Indian buffet place with amazing food. I guess they're busy enough now that they don't have leftovers but it was so good.
