“The young man in the butchery/meat dept (Chetan) was so pleasant and helpful when I went in today to select some meat. A really great employee. Management please thank him for his good work.”
“Fresh fresh fresh. What can I say. When it’s harvest this place is great. They even let you have the container peaches cones in rather than others that dump it in another bag and the peaches can get bruised”
“BEST STAFF EVER ! THEY ARE ALL SO KIND, I WILL ALWAYS SHOP HERE. I ALSO COMPARED PRICES TO OTHER AFRICAN SHOPS AND YOU ARE THE MOST AFFORDABLE AMONGST THEM ALL WITH EVEN BETTER QUALITY ❤️”

“Clean store. Pricing competitive with other grocers.. they do have some good specials though. Lots of free parking. No one ever gets a 5 star, as there is always room for improvement.”

“A wonderful little store that sells almost everything you might need from cleaning supplies to naphtha camping fuel at competitive prices. Beyond that, it's run by two of the kindest people I may have ever met. They always ask about my baby daughter and my day. From my first day in Welland they made me feel like a part of the community. Thanks for your service ?”
“Nice little convenience store on St. Paul, I'm not a fan of the way the male worker looks at me as I shop but I guess theft is common here. You can find the same merchandise as Dollarama, Avondale, gas station etc. and the owneris a very sweet lady.”
“Store is under renovations, but still my favorite store. It'll be even better when it's finished..Absolutely.My favorite store has everything I need in one spot including a deli. What did they offer pick up services to complete your order?Ahead and not even have to go into the store. For the most part, I find the staff friendly. Unfortunately, had 2 runnins with the same lady. Over the last three months, I finally just said something to the manager personally, because she is a little aggressive for customer service person”
“This is my go to no frills store. In general, most things are a little cheaper.But they don't carry the largest variety of certain items. Usually has what I need”
“The Pen Centre is always busy. There is everything u need including Zehrs. I like Zehrs as I can get things here thst i cant get in the states and come back often. Go and check it out. U wont leave empty handed.”
“I come here often as a local for small trips. I have always had good expirences with cashiers up untill tonight, and I’m sharing this in hopes management sees this and addresses the issue. I came in around 6:45 pm to pick up a few groceries. I do not usually use self check outs but I did! I saw cherries were on sale and grabbed a bag. When I scanned them, I noticed the price was different so I removed the code to see if I can try again. A lady working self checkout ( didn’t get her name)- yelled from her toll- “DID YOU NOT WANT TNEM”- I responded nicely- I do, I just thought they were a different price. She says in a condescending tone- ITS PER POUND. So I go to re scan them and because I didn’t enter the code first it flashed a message saying assistance required. She yells at me again “DONT SCAN THEM FIRST”. The entire transaction she was yelling at me, annoyingly came over to fix the screen while huffing and rolling her eyes at me and stormed off. I was getting so nervous my hands were shaking and it made me want to just leave everything and go to food basics. I paid for everything and walked out. She was standing laughing with another worker and didn’t even say have a nice day like the other cashiers always do. Her job is to help people in a friendly manner and I didn’t get that experience. I was left feeling judged and snubbed. I hope this is the first and last time this happens. Other than that, I always have such pleasant expirences with staff here.”
“Great selection of goods. Fruit and vegetables are excellent. Staff is very friendly. To all those people complaining about being treated like thieves. You are!”
“I have been so pleased with shopping at Sobeys. Great staff and friendly service and so helpful ?. Great job Sobeys, for picking such a good staff. I love your meat counter and the fresh sliced cold cuts. The bakery is so good ? and everything is so fresh and delicious ?. Thank you for coming to Port Colborne Ont. , and giving us something good to look forward to. Con.B”
“Lots of great options here that I can't find in other stores. Looking forward to trying out some new premade/frozen options from other cultures, along with their sales items.”
“This is our regular grocer. Their prices beat all the competition in the area and we can often get our groceries for less than we expected. Their selection or foreign products is also extensive, it allows us to experiment and experience groceries the world round. We regularly interact with their stocker Cameron and he is a joy to speak to.”

Realm lets you browse "digital doubles" of real Walmart products by navigating through several make-believe worlds. "We believe this is the future of commerce," said Justin Breton, who leads brand experiences at Walmart. "It won't replace our website or app, but will complement them."
