To clarify this is the first Farm Boy location in Toronto. They have Loblaws/Metro pricing but include a food court. I will update on March 3rd when I go visit the new store and take some pictures.Wee! Another stop on the way to Ikea!

Well, Alderwood Plaza has been pretty quiet. I am sure that starting next Thursday when they open, they will bring a traffic boost to that plaza. Farm Boy is not exactly the cheapest, but that's how it is supposed to be. The company has a " buy less, shop more " idea, meaning it is a bit different than your average supermarket. Also, this is the first supermarket for South Etobicoke since TOPS closed in 2015. I will post here on March 3rd some pictures from the Grand Opening.I’ve shopped at Farm Boy in Ottawa often. I find them expensive. It’s a different concept from the traditional Loblaws/Metro approach. It will be interesting to see how they do in the Toronto market. Some locations” demographics make sense to me, some I question.
I look forward to the photos, since it may be some time before I get out that way. Thanks.[...] I will post here on March 3rd some pictures from the Grand Opening.
How can you tell the difference? ha ha[...] the former Sears space has been replaced by a cheap goods store [...]

Not sure if this was posted elsewhere:
The Galleria is in its death throes and yet the lights stay on. We asked eight writers and a photographer to find the meaning of the mall

Wrong. See thread.Galleria Mall will be redevolped in the coming years into a condo. The mall would stay, but a condo would be built on top ( there is obviously a delay though if the mall still is open in 2018 )
