I like this rexall. Its in a busy part of a square, its in the first floor of a building that…read morehouses a very large medical practice, some lawyer offices and other busy businesses. They have free parking. There's a lot of parking at the door, but its a fairly large and busy customer base that visits the whole building so parking close can be a bit of a feat (I of course am the parking whisperer and parked across from its entrance. Score) No fear, there's a tonne of parking all over the square, you will find it. The store itself is well lit and clean. You notice how tidy and clean everything is which is something I like. There's nice wide aisles, nothing is crowded on the shelves, if you have ocd for things to be neat and lined up, this is the store you need to visit! The staff are really nice, everyone says hi, asks if you need help, etc. Checking out is fine, there's three cashes but mostly only one is open which is not a big deal because its not that busy!! But if you get caught behind people with lottery tickets.......pain in the arse

This is the only grocery store in Blind River. It's definitely priced as if it's the only grocery…read morestore in town! Location: On highway 17 across the street from the beer store in a small plaza Parking: Free and a lot of it The Goods: It's a Weston company grocery store like loblaws. It may be called valumart but don't fool yourself into thinking you'll find any value. It's pretty pricy and if something is on sale they get short changed on delivery. Thanks loblaws group. The staff: Everyone is really nice and a lot of people work there so you can always find someone to help So like I said, it's the only grocery store in town so you kinda need to use it regardless. 4 of 2019

As stated previously, this store is high priced as the ONLY grocery store in Blind River. Compared…read morewith southern prices, you are looking to pay 30 to 70% MORE! Ie In the south, or bigger cities you will find sour cream is 1.99 - this store $2.50! That is just 1 item. Cheese is also over priced with similarly higher prices. Milk & sugar is same as south for obvious reasons. No Name vegetable or bean cans, priced at .99 down south is $1.25-$1.50 here. That is NO NAME! The produce is stupidly high priced considering we are surrounded by Amish & Mennonites who sell cheap at this time too. ie Amish cabbage price -$2-3.00 each any size. However, Value-mart in it's stupidity is 1.29 per pound. Cabbages can be $5-6 or more depending on size. Are you getting the picture here? Farmers markets & roadside stands are much better than these 2 stores. Broccoli & cauliflower as well as more are also similarly over priced. Selections are so so at best. They are both small stores. The same people own the Thessalon Value-mart which has the exact same over pricing & gouging. There is NO value at these VALUE MARTS. NONE, ZILTCH, ZERO. Even bread is 2 for $6.00 be warned, shopping here is a gouge. Neither store is really very affordable by regular folks who have no choice of where to shop if they can't get out of town to a bigger facility, ie Basics. Side note - other closest facility to shop is A No Frills in Elliot Lake at least price the No Name stuff correctly. There is a Foodland aka Sobey's there as well for variety. Bottom line is, try to avoid these two stores - Value-marts - if you can. They are making a ton of money from folks who haven't really got it to spend on food.Thanks for reading. Hope it helps.
