Does anyone know where I can find Bugles chips? I've read that they were brought back to Canada Nov 2011 and read other people's responses how they've bought them at Wal-Mart, Sobeys (Ontario).

Anyone know where in Calgary?!

dollar store in Royal Oak has them, regular and cheese flavour. Just checked my bag it's the Dollarama so they probably all sell them.

They didn't. Co-op on Macleod has always stocked them.

Doubtful.

General Mills pulled the plug on Bugles in Canada in early 2010.

So if you did see them at CO-OP, they were selling old bags of Bugles from 2009. Otherwise they were buying from the US and stocking their shelves with US stock (no French on the packaging). That is pretty unlikely considering the costs of transport and border costs. Not to mention that it is also illegal for them to do.

I guess I have no proof, and haven't actually bought them in quite awhile, but I sweeeaaarr, I always see them. Everytime we go on a roadtrip we grab cheerios snack mix, and they're always right beside them.

Coke + Vanilla Vodka is a good substitute for Vanilla Coke :P

I too have no proof but I swear I have seen Bugles at Co-op as well, never noticed them disappearing off store shelves.

This year they brought them out at Christmas time because they are a popular item for nuts and bolts. They decided to do this after a major customer uproar at Christmas time in 2010. It looks like they are seasonal items now.

Bought 6 bags from Dollarama today. Regular is TOO salty. But Nacho cheese isn't too bad.
