Tip: This store is between Subway and the Beer Store.
I spotted this Becker's store near the RBC Royal Bank that I was at on Wednesday. I hadn't been in a Becker's store in ages. I have fond memories of my local store growing up in the Beaches, on Queen Street East and Leuty Avenue.
I thought that I'd check it out. I was already parked. Why not?
I walked in. It was weird seeing a customer standing a couple of feet in front of me, with a foot between him and a male employee. Both folks wouldn't budge. I had to squeeze in-between them.
Weird.
I saw snacks and candy. I also found the fridge with Fanta drinks. Perfect!
There was a lot to look at. I was contemplating what flavours to get when the male staffer said something to me that I didn't get.
It frankly threw me off. Pardon?
I was borderline annoyed. Although he was asking if I needed any help, which was kind, why not just let me be? I'm clearly looking at items and brain cells are active. If I have any questions, I'll reach out.
I got two Fanta bottled drinks:
- Zero-sugar orange
- Crimson sour cherry
Two bottles for $6. I chose the larger size over the cans.
I paid with a credit card. I tapped my phone and paid with my default card on Google Wallet. Done!
I thanked the man and wished him a great day. He reciprocated. I left with my drinks.
The crimson sour cherry is so different. It's like having a mild version of Chinese sour plum beverage. I dig it. I wish it came in a sugar-free format.
I always enjoy the zero-sugar orange. It's the original. It's sugar-free. Love!
It was nice dropping by this store. When I'm in this plaza again, I'd come back, hopefully without folks blocking the entrance.
