No Frills: Good prices, completely unappealing environment and limited selection.
Walmart: Usually great prices...but crowded with people, rarely have stock, food always tastes off/stale (like it wasn't transported and stored properly), disgusting house-brand (great value my ass).

I'll take a trip to Superstore over any of these any day of the week.
Superstore isn't too bad but I almost never go there (only when I need some Asian food supplies.) I've only been to two Superstores in the last couple years (Deerfoot Meadows and Country Hills/Sarcee) and the stores are always packed with people and the parking lot is madness. What should be a quick in and out trip (3 or 4 minutes tops) usually takes 10 to 15.

I've only been to Sobey's once (the Lakeview store) and I was not impressed. I don't even know where a Sobey's is near my place now (Varsity.)

Coop is my go to grocery store. I've basically been shopping at Coop all my life as my parents always shopped there.
