The Wholesale Club is one of several favourite shopping stops of ours on Kingsway. It's where we often head to replenish supplies of basic staples. But at the same time, we always look around to find 'values' in the fresh meat and other departments.
Upon entering, we always head to the bread first, then branch out from there, checking the offerings of fresh meats, milk, cheese, and the like. And before heading to check-out, the various aisles of packaged and bottled products. We usually end up with having quite a decent load to carry to check out.
We share our shopping amongst a good many stores - we like this one primarily for filling supplies of basic staples, and such. For fresh meat and produce though, we much-prefer the smaller, independent markets.

A fun and most-enjoying shopping experience here after enjoying dim sum this morning. We had bought only bread, and headed to one of the "you haven't bought much, and can check out here" check-outs ... and what a delightful experience it was to check out! With noboby behind us, we, and the cashier became engaged in a most-delightful discussion of bread, dim sum. and etc. We left with big smiles on our faces. Heh, we had just stopped into a "big, impersonal place" to catch some bread .... and were treated to some very warm, friendly, and personal service .. wow, what a nice treat!! read more
