Best Discount supermarket in Canada

D	Dragan Scorpian on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Avoid shopping early morning. Management intentionally understaffs the cashiers so you’re forced to use self checkout. It’s fast if you have a few items but studies have shown they are much less efficient than they appear. It’s not like they are passing on the cost savings to us consumers! Just look at food prices.
B	Blake Dezormo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The parking lot at this location seems to be packed at all times of the day. It isn't a particularly great grocery store in terms of selection, however the staff I have interacted with are friendly and professional, which is this establishment's most important redeeming quality.
m	megan goos on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Always great service. Clean store. Fresh foods are better than any other discount grocery.
M	Marta Borowska on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Okay location, a bit busy, a bit unkempt, not the biggest selection in comparison to some other locations. Little vegan section included here as well in the refrigerated area in produce. Includes some Yves and Daiya products. They also have a self checkout area.
J	Joe Kimpson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Pretty decent produce department, lots of parking, good prices. Friendly staff. Easy access from Lackner or Ottawa. Good produce section, fruits and veggies were fresh. Good snack isle as well.
A	Alena C. on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not particularly impressed. They still keep the pandemic business hours - it is too late to open at 8 am. And if you come in the evening the leafy veggies are wilted (spinach). Why can't they open at 7 am like other stores?
S	Sherry Bradshaw on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Clean and organized grocery store with polite staff. The wait for checkout is long and they could use more employees at the registers. Prices are fair and you can always find a good deal on something you weren't planning on buying lol definitely cheaper to shop here for pantry type items.
G	Gabriela on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I feel like I always save $100-200 when I shop here! Shelves and produce are kept well stocked and the quality of the chicken is good. Perhaps I wouldn’t get my steaks here but everything else about this store is good to me.
