    I vowed never to return to this store but I did. It started the night I had to wait with a fever…read morefor my antibiotic script for the pharmacist to finish the methadone clinic. The second time was when I asked the pharmacist for a antiviral and the third time for an anti fungal which I had a previous script. Both times I was told to go to the hospital. Look I get the location is bad but now all they have are self checkouts. And when I needed a bag they brought me a $2.78 bag. Insulting as I am disabled because of ON healthcare. Now unable to walk properly for the fifth time and still paying for most of my healthcare after losing my job in BC when I was having difficulty walking.

    I owe my life, almost literally, to the pharmacy staff at this Shoppers store. After suffering for…read moretwo weeks with what turned out to be pneumonia, attempting to fix it at home my self since, like many in Victoria, I don't have a family doctor, I finally managed to get a Telus Health appointment and was prescribed an inhaler. Despite being short staffed and it being a holiday, the pharmacy staff went above and beyond to fill my inhaler prescription today, so I didn't have to wait. I didn't realize how bad my breathing had become until I attempted the normally 5 minute walk to the store! One dose and I'm already breathing better. So, thank you. You all deserve a medal and a giant pay raise for the work you do, under increasingly difficult circumstances these days in healthcare.

    I have been a loyal customer of Shoppers Drug Mart for close to 50 years and have never complained…read moreabout your service or practices, which are generally very good. On Jan 14, 2026 I had an extremely unpleasant experience the CF Richmond Centre store in BC. I bought 2 Oral B io series toothbrushes that were on sale, paid by debit card but almost immediately, realized that I should have paid for the toothbrushes by credit card. So I went to the back of the line and when I came up to the cashier, I asked that the purchase of the 2 toothbrushes be reversed so that I could pay for them by credit card. When I explained that I had made a mistake and wanted to pay by credit card instead of debit, the cashier first told me that I would lose all Optimum points associated with the initial purchase even if I were to buy back the same items immediately. She strongly discouraged me from changing mode of payment. She highlighted the points on the receipt to emphasize that those points were a "one time only" reward and would all be lost even if I were to buy the same items again. Then when she rung up the items for a second time, she stamped "Final Sale" on the receipt. I'm at a loss to understand her actions: Why would the same items paid for by credit suddenly become a final sale. I find it to be incredibly sharp practice for your cashier to take unfair advantage of a customer's mistake particularly when the mistake was discovered almost immediately. All these transactions occurred in under 6 minutes.

I had a chronic problem right before I was scheduled to leave before I could get my prescription filled. I had to be on the plane or my flight. I arrived late afternoon and found out that the pharmacies if you have a chronic condition and you pass the interview by from the pharmacist, they will issue a prescription and fill it. The pharmacist I spoke with was intelligent articulate and interviewed me. I satisfied the guidelines for this service. She issued me the much needed drugs and gave me some advice. It was a wonderful experience. It solved my problem in two days and I enjoyed my trip. I also did some last-minute shopping in the store and it was a great experience.

    I'm not sure I can tell you anything about Safeway that you don't already know if you've visited…read moreany of their other locations, but if you're new to the area, the chain, or the country, maybe there are a few things to note. First, things are pricey here. I'm not sure if it's just the extra trucking required to come all the way up and over to Anacortes, or if these are Washington prices, but there were a few moments of sticker shock as I stocked up my cart for the next week and a half of eating. Produce and meat especially, though there are certainly still steals and deals to be had. I've been here twice, and both were over the holidays. It was elbow to elbow shopping and the parking lot was a zoo--if it's a busier time or season, be prepared to hunt for a spot to park. Safeway is one of those "member card" places, where everyone can be a member and you have to swipe your card or punch in your phone number. At some point, we all agreed that instead of just selling us the products at the price they definitely can, that we would let them track us and our shopping habits and harvest our data by swiping a card every time we shop. It's asinine, but that's how they operate. There's a Safeway gas station across the street, and I've filled up there twice before going to the San Juan islands and paying island fuel prices. It's not a bad move, and the ferry is just down the road. All in all, pretty convenient if you're headed to the islands and want to stock up before the prices go up to island sticker shock levels.
