As far as I'm concerned, Farm Boys should replace every single Sobeys...
Not mine please. I like to buy some items in mine other than just food.As far as I'm concerned, Farm Boys should replace every single Sobeys...
155 Sherbourne was a ValuMart they had one robbery then closed it down. Interesting to note there were no other No Frills downtown til TCHC built the family building at 501 Adelaide East in 2009.@afransen has it right above; I'll add that the discounters are where the TCHC/Coops are for the most part; market-housing downtown is comparatively expensive.
So you'll see 3 discounters in the vicinity of St. Jamestown (Food Basics, Freshco and NF); you have another Freshco at Regent Park, NF near the St. Lawrence area.
The exceptions in the mix are the Moss Park area, though the Regent Park Freshco isn't too far; the dollarstore on Sherbourne north of Queen was a supermarket when the complex was built and for decades afterwards.
Also Alexandra Park doesn't really have a discounter close at hand.
No thank you. Not interested in paying $7 for a pint of wild blueberries, and whatever other upscale price for basic everyday items.As far as I'm concerned, Farm Boys should replace every single Sobeys...
Although I'm happy they will have another downtown store to replace the previous one, I am sad that this store is essentially in Chinatown and may cause some loss of business for the mom and pop places. I would have been happier with another location more central and away from Chinatown.T&T announcing the new store on College Street (which I confirmed here awhile ago); and also providing a tentative opening date of September.

Sobeys is charging 15 cents per paper bag, which rip as soon as they’re packed and aren’t guaranteed to get home.

Easy: the grocers tend to run the same promotions on a rotation each year, and they pay close attention to what their competitors have done previously.How do they all end up having this exact same marketing gimmick on the exact same week?
