Real Canadian Superstore

I hope this post will help someone else find a better location to get their groceries from. Tonight was awful shopping there. First no shopping carts in the front so I have to go back from where I just came from and get one from the parking lot. The cart I chose didn’t want to steer after I got it in the store too… went to the deli to some deli meat and there’s a sign that says “be back in 15”. Ok no problem so I do the rest of my shopping first. The store wasn’t very busy so that was nice but every staff member I went by just seemed annoyed that I would go down the aisle they were either online shopping for or stocking. Like it seemed some of them purposefully made it difficult just to get by them. I actually forgot a few items because I felt pushed out of aisles .After about 30 minutes of shopping in go back to the deli to get my deli meat. Sign is still there but there’s a guy with a large moustache preparing chicken. I recognize him from previous shopping experiences and I know he runs the deli counter. He ignored me for about 10 minutes before I finally gave up and bought something I didn’t want from the cooler instead. I’m actually thankful he didn’t finally acknowledge me so I wouldn’t have to say what was on my mind. I understand you are busy but you can acknowledge that I’m there and waiting. I go to the checkout and pay for my groceries and the cashier didn’t say a single word to me other then “do you have a PC Card”. At the end of paying I say thank you and have a good evening. Nothing… no words… I honestly tried to be kind and polite to everyone at this store tonight but got nothing. I’m a single dad of 3 children who had just worked an 11 hour day so he could buy groceries for his family. I will no longer be spending my weekly $400 at superstore. I hope this helps others where to not shop.

****UPDATE : prices keep going up on a daily basis at this grocery store, yet they never come back down. It’s so bad that they even raised the price of their flash food items, the app that sells near expired groceries. Over a month ago the App had consistently amazing deals, but for some reason now the prices are even much much higher on there. It’s too bad because with higher prices, people are not going to buy these near expired items that are going to end up in the garbage. I understand Inflation is a country wide problem, but for some reason I see it more at the store and I’ve been seeing it a lot in the last month, ! *******nnI just arrived in Yorkton this evening from Ottawa and walked to this store to get fruits and veggies to keep in my hotel fridge. I was shocked at how expensive the produce was . I was even more shocked at how bad it looked! Dark radishes with wilted leaves, moldy blueberries, rotting Cantaloupe… all of which was ridiculously overpriced. Pale looking navel oranges, bruised pears, brown pomegranates…. Needless to say I was very disappointed in the quality of the produce that evening but when I came back the next day the produce looked much better. I found some good quality stuff and great flash deals as well. Got a beautiful bright yellow cored pineapple for $1.94 and and large Caesar sale kit of 586g at regular price $2.94 minus 30% reduced for a total of $2.06!! Currently the price of romaine lettuce has skyrocketed up to $6.99 for 3 hearts due to bad production so this was a real deal. Looking around in the store one can find some great specials although some things are still really pricey. The store is dead quiet after 9pm and early morning but overly crowded between 4-6pm. Its so crowded one cannot move In the isles and the lineups are massive so I would try to avoid that time. The staff are quite friendly. The self checkout is a great option and its quick. They don’t give plastic bags anymore so bring your own! They have a unique international section . I even found Durian fruit at $4.99 a pound. It was not fresh but whole frozen Durian which may or may not be ripe. At $4.99 one whole Durian would come up to almost $50! Maybe I will treat myself to one at Christmas. After all , its not something you can easily find in regular stores and my other option would be flying out to Thailand to have one. I was really k pressed and surprised superstore carried it. I understand that inflation is hitting all businesses hard . I wish the produce here was more affordable but I am relatively happy and content with all the other specials and the low price of No Name products. Good job Superstore.

The store has gone soo bad. There is no stock of anything at any time of the day. Empty shelves in the dairy and if you ask for help from the staff you get glared at and there is no sense of hygiene as employees are chewing on tabacco while handling food and produce and mouldy fruits on the shelves. Health department should definitely take a look at this store. Absolutely horrendous.

Very hard to navigate. Mexican food isn't on any of the signs. I had a hard time finding it. The grated cheese and cheese Sliced aren't with the rest of the cheese. Confusing. All in all this is a terrible superstore.

Great guys. Fast, not pushy. Didn’t give me a hard time for my obvious neglect of my vehicles fluids. nI’ll be going back.
