I was heading home after spending a good chunk of my Sunday afternoon in the Beaches. On Saturday, I normally do my grocery shopping, which includes getting eggs. I didn't have a chance to grab some. I decided to stop by this Rexall to pick up a dozen eggs.
I have passed by this Rexall many times. I normally don't visit it because there's a Shoppers Drug Mart a block away. I was curious to check this drugstore out.
This Rexall is in a plaza with a ton of parking spots. I parked fairly close to the entrance and walked in.
The beauty section greets you when you walk in. It felt like an older store, but it had everything that I needed.
I looked ahead and found the daily living section. It essentially meant food and drinks.
I found the eggs. There was a woman there looking at the photo of a grey carton with a blue stripe. It did not match the grey cartons in front of us.
We chatted about it. I looked at the price of the grey cartons and they were $3.99, which was the price posted with the photo with the different carton design.
I have seen egg prices rise steadily at Rexall. It started off at $3.49 months ago. It was at $3.79 two weeks ago. It was $3.89 yesterday when you look at the flyer. For some reason, the price hiked up again to.
The woman basically grabbed two cartons and was about to leave. I asked that she check that the eggs weren't cracked and that the expiration date was good. She nodded. We both had good eggs.
I looked around the store some more. I found M&M Food in the fridge. I found pop that was decently priced. There was a vitamin sale. I enjoyed browsing.
I found Twigz pretzel snacks. I got a couple of bags, as they were on sale. I then headed to the checkout.
There was a man there who wasn't the most talkative, but he was competent at the checkout. He scanned my Be Well barcode and my items. I then paid with a credit card.
I thanked him and left with my items. I didn't go into the store with a bag. I put them in a reusable one in my car and headed home.
I still need to try the snacks. I hope that they are good.
This Rexall is a solid drugstore. It had everything that I needed. I didn't need the pharmacy, but I was glad that it was open.
