Reviews
This review is about the Flower Shop.
A glorious range of plants and flowers, with lots to choose from. Staff are knowledgeable about everything they sell, and they told me how to look after my Aloe Vera that I purchased there.
I made an impulse purchase on a bunch of pretty flowers, by the door. They looked a bit too skinny to fill the vase I had, so two bunches would have been better. Such a purchase might be around $50. You get beauty and life for your money - not to mention Brownie Points. Beauty and life are fleeting and no amount of money can bring them back.
I recommend seizing beauty and life, while the going is good...
Good chain grocery store. Nice people. However this stores parking lot is a bit of a problem. I got door dinged while in shopping. Not a lot of room for larger vehicles and it is usually quite busy.
It is one of the best thrifty foods locations, in my opinion. People are nice, staff are helpful, store is spacious and well stocked. Lots of great stuff here. No sotting area anymore though, it seems. That's too bad.
We recently moved to Saanichton and I was looking for a new grocery store that would become my weekly routine for shopping for the family. I love this location. I have been blown away how clean, organized and stocked the store is. Even more, the staff are amazing. They will stop to help you no matter what. They seem to hold pride in their work and this location and their contributions. They even praise each other's contributions. There are lots of sales and nicely packaged specialty items. The bakery, seafood, and meat counters are wonderful. I am so glad I have found my new local grocery store. Keep up the good work everyone!!
Bita in the floral store in Sidney did a magnificent job of arranging flowers I picked out.
old lady at working at the customer service counter aggressively yelling "MA'AM???" trying to get my (a mans) attention for self checkout needs checked for Alzheimer's.
Remember the first weeks of the pandemic, when stores ran out of stock and it seemed shopping was a risky endeavour? Shopping at this Thrifty's remains a challenge.
Every Sunday we shop for our parents here and invariably the store has run out of sales items. I realize the parent company, Sobeys, has changed their stock to reflect what sells best, thus reducing the overall selection of brand choices. But this store can't stock to meet customer needs... Every weekend!?!
I'm not sure if the small aisle size contributes to customer confusion, but too many people don't follow any store rules regarding social distancing. Staff seem oblivious, with the exception of the ones monitoring the front door.
And don't even get me started on the parking lot: stalls undersized, bumper car parking and snarky drivers!
Update: who has sales like this!?! Check out the pictures.
Staff alternate from grumpy to best-customer-service-ever.
Best time to shop is at dinner time, or an hour before closing.
Best place for floral needs ! Variety and great customer service !
Watch for buy one get one free or $1 day sales in the grocery store!
