| - This Shoppers has undergone a major renovation and is FINALLY completed. The scaffolding is gone, the aisles are all sorted and it has been officially upgraded to Shoppers-nouveau with the high end makeup counter, the grocery area and the supplement/wellness nook.
Please note the panhandlers still hang out front. A friend of mine overheard an argument, and apparently Shoppers is THE place to panhandle and the neighborhood unsavories all fight for the privilege.
I am happy Shoppers is so close (seconds from my house) for last minute purchases, contact lens solution, pantyhose, jars of spaghetti sauce, and of course Canada Post.
The issue is that there is NEVER enough staff on. The after work hours of 5-7 are completely ridiculous, with every Leslievillian stopping in to grab some things, and one or two cashiers on. The lineups usually snake back into household cleaning supplies.
The cashiers are nice, the layout is good, its open late, has food items if you eat convenience/processed stuff, Canada Post. The lineups are horrific.
