Toronto Asian Supermarket Staples on Sale This Week: Shin Ramyun $3.99, Ginseng Chicken Stew $9.98 (May 22-28 2026)

Summary: This week, several Toronto Asian supermarkets have strong deals on everyday household staples — from bottled water and frozen shrimp to instant noodles and ginseng stew. Here's what's worth stocking up on and why.

Introduction

Some items don't need a special occasion — they just belong in the cart. This week, five stores across the GTA are offering notably lower prices on items that most households buy regularly. Here's a breakdown of each deal and what makes it worth the trip.

💧 Aquafina Water 24×500ml — $6.99/ea (reg. $9.99)

📍 Centra Foods (Aurora) — limit 5 per order

Saving $3 per case, coming to under $0.30 per bottle. Large-format water rarely drops this low in Toronto. If you have a car and the Aurora location is accessible, maxing out the five-case limit is straightforward math. Room temperature storage, long shelf life — ideal bulk buy.

🦐 Fu Yang White Shrimp 400g — 2 FOR $8.88

📍 Foody Mart (Warden)

$4.44 per box. White shrimp is one of the most versatile proteins in the freezer — stir-fried, steamed, in soup, or used as dumpling filling. Buy two, keep both frozen, and you have a reliable protein source for the week.

🍜 Nongshim Shin Ramyun 5-pack — $3.99 (reg. $7.99)

📍 Sunny Food Mart (Don Mills) ⚡ While quantities last!

Saving $4 — $0.80 per pack. This is one of the lowest prices for Shin Ramyun currently available in Toronto. The "while quantities last" note is real — get there early in the week rather than waiting for the weekend. Two or three packs per trip is a sensible approach.

🍲 Harim Instant Ginseng Chicken Stew 800g — $9.98 (reg. $13.99)

📍 Tone Tai (Don Mills)

Saving $4. Harim's ginseng chicken stew contains a whole small chicken stuffed with glutinous rice and ginseng — a traditional Korean restorative dish. Five minutes in the microwave and it's ready. Room temperature storage, genuinely useful to have in the pantry. At $9.98, buying two or three makes sense.

🫓 Lazeez Pain Paratha 2.4kg — $6.88 (reg. $8.99)

📍 Yours Food Mart (Warden)

Saving $2.11. The 2.4kg format covers several weeks of use. Parathas heat up in two minutes on a flat pan and pair well with curry, chutney, or on their own as a quick breakfast. A reliable staple for multicultural households across the GTA.
