Shoppers - Box of triscuts = $5.19 Superstore - Box of triscuts = $1.97
The fuck is that shit about.
To be fair, if you're grocery shopping at Shoppers you probably have more money than brains.
Or you're a little ol' lady who needs her meds but doesn't have the energy to walk the extra few blocks to the actual grocery store.
Which is a good reason to build our cities to be more walkable so that more essential services/stores are closer together and more accessible.
Same company as well, so really just a fuck you for shopping at the pharmacy.
Basically taking advantage of little ol' ladies wanting to save a stop.
Where I am there's a shoppers on one side of the complex and a no frills on the other, it's insane to find something that's half the price not more than 50m away.
Fuck Galen, nationalization is the only option
Mr.Garison had the right idea for dealing with troublesome Canadians.
In some urban places you can walk to the Shoppers but need to drive to the No Frills/superstore/zerhs etc. So also fuck you for walking.
