“Cobourg Metro Pharmacy has the BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE over five Pharmacies I have shopped in, Including one major pharmacy in Ontario. Pharmacist DR.ZHENG QUAN is friendly, very informative and always giving exceptional customer service. I like the convenience of dropping off prescription and getting it filled awhile I do my shopping. I like to Thank staff pharmacist PRASHANT for his phone call, that he finally received okay from my doctor for a repeat on my daily medication and that he is going to fill it right away, so I can pick it up before the major snow storm hits. Thank you PRASHANT, for caring my safety and well being. The Staff in this pharmacy truly care of their customers beyond just filling prescription! Also special thank you to staff member NICOLE. Thank you NICOLE, for your good advise in purchase of Blood Pressure monitor. I tried to shop in another major pharmacy, but I did not get help or answers for my questions. Since I am already very happy customer with Metro Pharmacy, I decided to check with Metro Pharmacy. NICOLE gave me all the answers and very good recommendation regarding my needs, since there are many different models. THANK YOU Nicole for excellent customer service and saving me forty dollars, which I would have paid more in another Pharmacy and all the time you spent with me to make sure I purchased right one according to my needs. Thank you! Anneli”

The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market. Mary Ellen Adcock, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief merchant and marketing officer, walked through the lineup.
Walmart shoppers want a head start on the holidays, and money explains a lot of it. Some 44% of respondents call affording the holidays their top stressor, and 61% say holiday costs shape their shopping mood. Asked what would make the season easier, 70% picked lower prices and 57% picked more deals and promotions. Convenience ranks lower: 30% want one-stop shopping across categories, and 20% want faster delivery.
Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
