  I'm thankful to have a grocery locally, about a 5 minute's drive for me, and the prices on most items are cheaper than the drug store in the same area, but more expensive than other, larger grocery stores 10 minutes away. I also really wish the cashiers, especially in the "express lanes", had a greater sense of urgency especially during peak times. I do expect to wait in line during these times but when there's two people in front of me with less than five items, 10 to 15 minutes is too long. On the other hand, staff is generally friendly and helpful if you ask a question, and I am greeted from time to time by merchandisers, and I can always find what I need there.

  Why do people even shop here? I really don't understand it, all the prices are way higher than other grocery stores. Not even slightly higher like sometimes double! The same loaf of bread, same brand and everything for $3 at Walmart sells here for $5.99. All the produce and meat is similarly overpriced. It's literally like a gas station down the road is selling gas for $1 but you choose to pump for $2.70. Do you realize apples shouldn't cost $6/lb or that $20 is the wrong price for a raw chicken? I mean seriously are you just that dumb or just plain rich (probably not the latter otherwise you wouldn't be doing your own grocery shopping). I can't understand why this company is still in business!! All these 5 stars for friendly staff?? Its a flipping grocery store why do you need friendly staff?? I'm going to open up a store where employees give you a hug if you're willing to pay $30 for a loaf of bread. Seriously, read these other reviews and tell me this isn't part of some cult. "I had so much fun shopping here, associates are kind and humorous." Are you buying groceries or going to Disneyland????? What the hell!!

  A grocery store that carries a wide variety of produce, meats and grocery items. The produce can be a bit hit or miss. Sometimes it's great and sometimes not. I find the prices are generally higher than what I expect although they occasionally have some good sales. The staff seem generally uninterested except for the rare gem that goes above and beyond. I no longer do my general grocery shopping here but I still go by to pick up sale items. There is no pharmacy in this store but there is one next door.

  Always a friendly face to be seen in the store. Associates are kind, humorous, and helpful. Aisles are stocked and the store is clean. They always seem to have some good sales going on too! My only complaint is that while my wife and I shop there we have been approached multiple times by an affiliate (not sure if they are employed by Save-On) of Scotia Bank and they're always trying to sell us on a credit card or account.

  Otherwise, I love coming here. Especially for lumberjack sandwiches!

  Lack of product organization. Took the cashier far to long with customers he wanted to talk with. Never said a word to me except the total. Talked to the customer behind me while doing my transaction.
