This is a very nice Shoppers Drug Mart (hereafter SDM). Spacious, with a section dedicated to boutique type cosmetics and a consultant to assist you in selecting the best products for you. Otherwise, they have a terrific collection of lip balm, more run of the mill cosmetics (which I can actually afford), and they regularly stock my often hard to find hair color.
When I was having some knee pain, the helpful staff directed me to some helpful pain patches, called Salonpas. These things smelled terrible, and I would never use them close to my face, but wow, did they ever do wonders for my knee pain. Temporary, but effective relief!
Surprisingly, SDM can have great deals on certain products that you would not think to find in a pharmacy. For example, potato chips were on sale for 50% less than the sale prices at grocery stores. You can also get useful household cleaning products at SDM.
I was surprised and pleased to discover the unexpected diversity of this pharmacy. Check it out to see some deals which may surprise you, too!!
Located in a large mall, you can visit SDM, go to Home Depot, Michaels and then go and eat at one of the many restaurants. If you need an ultrasound or xray (a bit bizarre in the context of this review) then you can just get it done in the same place.
Parking is plentiful, and the location is supported by traffic lights which make it an easy driving experience (and, face it, driving is, for many, the suburban reality)
My only complaint is that this is a large store, and at times it is difficult to track down some staff to help you find what you need amidst the plethora of products and aisles. Otherwise, an excellent shopping experience. read more
