Thursday evening at nearly closing time, I had brought my kids in to shop with their own money.nMy kids are 4,5, and 11. The kids found some toys they liked left over from Easter, and some ice creams. They were very excited as they had been saving for some time!nWe were beyond blessed to land on James' till for check out, James and the lovely young lady assisting him were AMAZING!nJames took the time to explain to each of my children the process of their purchase as he rang them through, explained their receipts, EVERYTHING! As one of my kids finished James' helper stood kindly chatting to the kids about what they had found to buy!nWhen it was my 11 year olds turn James even had some history about the bluenose on the dime to share!nI would return to this grocery store 1000x just to say hello to James and to know there are kind and patient employees there like the lovely lady that assisted I wish I got your name!nThank you to two amazing people, that made my whole families day!
Rarely do i shop at save on foods. Today was another reason not to. I stopped to buy dessert for coffee. The clerk female at the self serve was not helpful, cranky and had an attitude. The self serve checkouts are difficult to use, don’t need the hassle.
I have been going to Save On Foods since I moved to Duncan 6 years ago. The staff are amazing! It's really nice to go into a store and see familiar friendly faces. I much prefer shopping here to any other grocery store in Duncan.
I had an awful experience yesterday in Save-On-Foods. I rarely shop at this store, but I've had gift cards from my bank in my purse for months. I don't think the bank has redeem points gift cards for other grocery stores. I wanted to buy four items. Pizza pops came up the wrong price. I had to buy two boxes to get the sale price. Nowhere did I see a sign that said two had to be purchased. Second item: soda water. Price on the shelf was $1.99. I rang it in at the self checkout and the screen said new price. HaHa. A checker had to go and magically check for this new price. $3.69 haha. Almost double. First, under the law, I should have received this item for no charge. No one working there knew the law. Didn't buy this and made a mental note to never shop in this store again. How crooked can a greedy company get? Almost doubling the cost of an item once it's taken to the till? Tiramisu cake came up the correct price much to my surprise, but it tasted awful. Tasted like whipped cream and white cake. No flavour. And not cheap. Like I said, I'll never be back. Will use my gift cards at another Save-On.
The store is organized and fully stocked. Staff are nice. Prices are comparable. This location has bakery, deli, and a pharmacy that offers on-site vaccination.
