Has anyone seen cornbread stuffing mix, cranberries, canned pumpkin, marshmallow cream or sugar free red gelatin in local stores?

OMG I will have to rush to Megamart for the pie crust mix. I finally got two cans of pumpkin from a friend (Expat Sueno) after dashing all over the city and questioning everyone I know. I saw lots of pumpkin before Canadian Thanksgiving and have been blaming all the Canucks for the canned pumpkin shortage. You better give it up, guys, before I sing "O Canada."

Megamart has

-dried cranberries in the produce section (but no fresh)

-canned whole cranberries in the reduced-price section

-canned pumpkin. I snagged the last 2 cans in the canned veggie aisle, then found a guy stocking some in the baking aisle

-I also found pie crust mix. Don't see it too often. It will go fast. (I left a few for you guys)

-no marshmallow cream

-no stuffing mix

-no SF jello

had stuffing mix and cranberries in abundance last week. I have heard that there is no pumpkin yet (have bought it there before) They occasionally have marshmallow cream (can get that almost anywhere at times) and jello-almost never see the sugar free kind, but the regular is in abundance everywhere.

dwmsdavis,

Oh please don't tell me there's no canned pumpkin, thought I had some but just discovered I am out, so will go hunt for it today. Can't have Thanksgiving without pumpkin pie!!!!!!

Stuffing mix - have never seen it here. Had to learn to make stuffing from scratch once I moved to Qatar.

Cranberries- can usually find fresh ones in the supermarkets. Canned, sometimes.

Marshmallow cream - again, sometimes

SF gelatin - not sure

Most of these things are not found all the time. You may have to look in a few stores to find them all. If I see any of them, I'll post it here.

Good luck!
