For example , I saw Lindor packs for $4. There's are normally at least $5-$6. Saw fancy almond milk for like $2. The only drawback is a lot of stuff is close to or already expired so you gotta be careful . I say it's not our cup of tea simply because we tend to stock up / get too excited and buy a lot so expired/ close to expiring snacks is a no go . I was lucky to find these two steals and the expiration on each were at least close to half a year ! Camino bar was as only $1 :O and hairbo was only $1.55. The store itself looks pretty haggard but still recommend everyone to give it a run to see if they find any goodies :)

The Hot Counter has great lunch specials and at the end of the day they discount all of the hot food after 6pm daily.

When it arrived the wedges was cold but the wings were still warm. However they forgot to give me my dipping sauce! Also I order naked wings and they gave me breaded wings! They also only gave me 29 wings when it was suppose to be 30! It wedge tasted pretty darn good as it was well seasoned. The wings were lacking a tiny bit as it wasn't crispy anymore. Even though they messed up on my order, it still tasted pretty good so I would probably order from them again especially at that price.

Since my last review of the Pickering Loblaws, they've renovated and upgraded some of their…read moredepartments. Recently, in response to economic tensions with the U.S.A., Canadian products are labelled with the maple leaf. This labelling is usually accurate, but best to check anyway. The loyalty card is one of the best out there, and every month I save a considerable amount of money. Just remember to open your app and load the offers! Starting with the prepared foods and deli counters, the chicken counter has the ubiquitous roast chicken, which every grocery store with a prepared food counter seems to stock. It's good, but I recommend the chicken fingers even more. I'm not much of a chicken finger fan, usually, but these are amazing. On Tuesday, they are on Special! The deli counter is well stocked with a wide range of cold cuts and meats. I'm sad that they no longer stock Greek Feta, as deli Feta difficult to find in Pickering. Moving on to the bakery, the in-store baked breads have been vastly upgraded, and you can now get some bakery quality breads here. This is a welcome change! The health food section is excellent for a grocery store, and you can get all sorts of healthy and organic things there, as well as vitamins. They stock rye flour, and its one of the few places that carry it, as well as Bob's Red Mill grain products. The adjacent pharmacy has basic pharmacy needs, and they fill prescriptions also. The Joe Fresh clothing section sells a variety of reasonably fasionable clothing (for a "grocery" store). The wine and beer selection is also great, featuring mostly Ontario products. The grocery aisles are much narrower than they used to be, and sometimes it can be a challenge to get through! Here, the selection is much the same as it always was. The PC and No Frills brands are generally very good value, and sales are well advertised in the flyer. Recently, the International Foods (both fresh and frozen) offers a bigger selection, selling, among other things, frozen Chinese selections from T & T. This is a great upgrade!. It was true 3 years ago, and still is; this would be a great destination in a zombie apocalypse. You could literally live in this store. They even have alcohol to calm your nerves in such a crisis!

We came here while they seemingly had specials for Diwali. There were a lot of Asian vegetables that are hard to find like Indian and Chinese eggplant as well as some melons and root vegetables. I was pretty impressed with the freshness and overall appearance of the produce as well. I expected most things to be cheaper at Freshco than say a Sobey's or a Metro. The ground beef was not actually cheaper and was almost a bit pricier. They have a limited selection of meats so I wonder if it was the scarcity that made the price higher. There is also no fresh seafood at this location. We were looking for scallops and they didn't have frozen ones either. An employee that we asked about the scallops actually didn't know what they were and pointed us in the direction of the scalloped potatoes, oops.

Tip: Collect PC Optimum points at this store…read more A few months ago, I was at Rexall at the corner of Finch Avenue and Dixie Road. In the same plaza was Derek's Your Independent Grocer store. It intrigued me back then, especially with a Loblaws store close by on Kingston Road. I needed to get some groceries before I took in a matinee flick at Cineplex in Pickering. My original thought was to hit the Food Basics near this movie theatre. My route had me passing by this grocery store. Hey, why not give this place a try? I was driving eastbound on Finch Avenue. I took a right into the parking lot. It was spitting rain. I parked fairly close to the entrance and walked over to the entrance. I like that shopping carts don't require that you scramble for change to unlock it. I got a smaller one, as I didn't need a ton of items for this haul. I then walked in. I always like visiting a supermarket that I've never been to. I liked the produce section. Everything looked fresh. It wasn't overwhelming, as it is smaller supermarket. Prices are slightly expensive, as it's technically affiliated with Loblaws. However, I like the selection and variety. I needed celery and an avocado. They were both in pristine condition. The latter looked like every one was super ripe, but it wasn't the case when you held a few in your hand. I got a pineapple. There was a sale. Yay! In the prepared food section, wings were on sale. My highlight was seeing a perogies meal, complete fried onions and coleslaw. Wow! It was cool seeing sushi pockets in the frozen food fridge in both tuna mayo and salmon teriyaki. I grabbed the former to try out. This store also had beef rolls for hot pot. Impressive! I got a box of St Hubert tourtière in a pack of two that I've never seen before. I liked the smaller size that you can heat and eat. I wasn't planning on getting any pop here. However, I saw 7up in zero-sugar watermelon. It was new to me and a limited edition. I needed to get a case and did. This place had a ton of ICEE drink packs. It gave summer vibes early. I found the discount section. I ended up getting some ramen and a pack of PRIME drink packets that were heavily marked down in price. There was so much to see. I was extremely happy to have found bottles of furikake. I grabbed a bottle. This store has human cashiers and self-checkout kiosks. I went with a female cashier who was pleasant. She admitted that she was tired when she asked me for my PC Optimum barcode a second time. She had already scanned it. I was pleased to see a lavender reusable bag that I could purchase. I've been shopping with a reusable Yelp bag for a few years that has lost a lot of its insulated lining and had seen better days. This lavender bag was larger and would be a nice replacement despite not being insulated. This woman was great helping me place my items in my new bag. I put in the remaining items as she was getting me Disney stickers. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and was done. I thanked this woman and rolled my groceries over to my car. I then put my cart away. I liked shopping here. It had everything that I needed and a lot more. (182)
