There are so many better choices. Sorry, I just can't step a foot in SS. Just an awful place to shop IMO.
My wife and I shop around for good deals. We normally, on the weekend, go to several places. Some have better meat prices. Some have better produce prices. Others better pricing on canned/packaged goods and yet even others for supplies like deodorant, etc.
On any given Saturday/Sunday we shop at:
Save On Foods
Safeway
H&W Produce
Sobey's
Walmart
London Drugs
All of which I would rather go to than SS. I can't stand the layout, the people who shop there and just the general feel of the store. We save a lot of money going and getting various things at the above stores. Anyone who just purchases at one place is not going to save money and get the best prices these days unfortunately.
