I don't know what it is about Sobeys, but I'm not a fan. Its probably because I'm not the target consumer for their stores which is fine, but for what ever reason my girlfriend likes coming here so I tag along.
This is the only grocery store south of 130th Ave so it can get busy. The worst night to come is when they have their big savings day on the first (second?) Tuesday of every month. We hit up the store late on one of these nights to get in on the deals. When we got to the register they were clearly under staffed. It took us about 20 minutes to get through the line which should have been less than 5 if they had even one more cashier working.
On other visits the experience has been fine with the worst thing being the crazy shoppers who have to get to the ground beef before you because you might buy them all before they can get their pound for dinner tonight.
I'll stick to Safeway...I know, I know. Sobeys bought Safeway. Shut it.
