bc flag on the store
Hello There,
I live in Vancouver, and often go to the Canadian Superstore at Main and Marine Drive. During my last visit, I observed 2 flag posts on the store. One is for Canadian flag and the other one is for BC flag(provincial). Unfortuanately the BC flag is not in a good shape, and torn at the edge. Being a BC resident, I request you to change it with the new flag as soon as possible.
Thank you!

service
Dated: 31/03/17, i did shopping from superstore (store 01549 & 01567), and with the gap of 2 hours, i did shopping and make $250 and eligible for free gift of the week which is pc turkey worth of $24,
here is the point, am muslim and i told them that i can not take pc turkey because it is not halal it is my religious issue. They said we have halal turkey but it is expensive so we can not substitute your free gift with any other gift. They can give me 25000 pc points which is value of $25.
But she said that either you have to take that pc turkey or have to leave your gift. Here i come to know that loblaw / superstore ignoring minorities needs and their faith. Or can i assume that being muslim do not do shopping from superstore because we are not allowed eligible for free gifts because it is our religious problem that we can only eat halal meat. Is that what the customer service is trained by loblaw in their managers meeting.
I need answer of my question please, because i want to report this to media that real canadian superstore is launching anti-muslim campaign through their weekly $250 sale gifts,
i can provide my shopping bills that am eligible for the free gift and i can mention the name of the front desk lady if asked.
Thanks.
The customer knew what the gift would be and should not have participated if she does not want that particular gift, or she can pass the gift to a friend. For example, if a vegetarian won the gift, the gift should still be a turkey. Prizes cannot be personalized to the individual's personal values.
bad seafood
I bought the pepper bbq chum salmon tips from the Kelowna store on Baron. It was mushy and totally white inside and tasted bad. Like it had been thawed and rozen several times I spit it out because it tasted very bad. S I didnt get sick but might have if I would of ate more. I hope they are going to take it off the shelf so one no gets sick. I wont trust superstore for fresh fish again.

unhelpful customer service
Hi. I went to to superstore saint james winnipeg manitoba. I shop worth $275 and because of that i get a free item. The problem is the free item is a 1kg bunny chocolate which is ok if im not allergic. So i ask the customer service if i could claim it next week instead because i wont be able to eat it and it will go to waste. But the customer service is not even helpful and just keep forcing me to take the chocolate.
gluten free products and organic products together
Good Morning,
I'm just writing to inform that I think superstore has done a wonderful job adding a gluten free and organic food aisle. It helps me to find my products faster.
However, I have celiac disease and I am several allergic to gluten. In the last two years I have grabbed two products that were organic by mistake because:
1.they are in the same freezer as gluten free products
2.the labels of the packages appear similar
I confused waffles and hamburger buns.
This has caused me aching stomach pains because I absorbed gluten. Anyways I hope suprestore will look into separating organic and gluten foods. Gluten is a severe allergy that ppl have and organic is a lifestyle people choose to live with.
Please help separate those foods into two different freezers
Thank you
cashier
I visited Real Canadian Superstore on March 25, 2017. I purchased 2 containers of organic yogurt and presented the cashier with 2 separate manufacturer coupons valued at $.50 each for these items, which stated on the coupon 1 per purchase. The cashier told me I can only use one and I tried to tell her that I always use 2 coupons when I have purchased 2 containers and I have never had a problem, but she still would not allow it. The only way to use the other coupon was to split my order. It wasn't until I got home that I realized that by splitting the order it actually cost a lot more as the yogurts were on a special of buy 2/6.98 rather than the $4.48 each, that I ended up paying. As well, I missed out on the PC Plus points on the second order. I am not normally a consumer that complains about much, but I was very frustrated with this cashier and I didn't have the time to argue with her. I have been using coupons for many years and don't normally have any issues. I would appreciate it if the staff members are made aware of how coupons work and if they are unsure, then they should contact a senior member that could help.
clerk
Today Saturday at 13:30 I was there as I'm all ways do to get fuel and lottery.
However I was treated like a idiot by the clerk.
I would appreciate a little more respect as I'm 64 years old.
As far I'm concerned this Yong clerk should be removed from that activities as if not i will advertise on line regarding the quality of service offer by the Superstore gas station.
produce
I'm so frustrated. I have been shopping at superstore for years, and whenever I have to purchase produce, I always end up with at least one item that goes bad quickly. I decided to use click and collect yesterday, and while it is super convenient and the man handling my order was amazing, I ended up with raspberries that were covered in mold. I also ended up with carrots that had gone bad. It's so frustrating because I have a family to feed, and I end up with old produce. Not only is the produce sub par, I ended up unknowingly purchasing a product that had been recalled. When I went to bring the product back to the store, I was not allowed to get my money back because I didn't have he receipt. This is ridiculous. So many products from superstore (presidents choice products) have been recalled. I am seriously contemplating not returning because it doesn't matter which superstore I go to, I always end up with horrible produce. Please try and stick your stores efficiently with better produce. You are losing customers fast because of this. The price point is great, but if I end up with produce that has gone bad it isn't worth saving the extra money. It just ends up in the garbage anyway. I realize that I live in Canada and we don't have an abundance of fresh fruit and veggies, but I always make sure to purchase what is in season to ensure it's freshness. I can honestly say that I am never satisfied with the produce I purchase at superstore.
club pack bread
Hi there,
I live in Chilliwack, BC. I have been a proud customer of Superstore for a very long time. Mostly because I am a vegan and you offer many products that I can purchase for myself and my vegetarian family. I especially love your natural aisle. I find the natural products cater to a mother like myself who only wants natural, wholesome, toxin free foods and products that are chemical free. My family is large, I have 4 children and a husband who eats like a horse. So I spend a lot of money at your store. The other day, my husband and I bought some of your club pack bread products for our home. It seemed like an amazing deal, 4 loaves of bread for $5. For a family of my size, deals matter. I normally read labels, but did not think to do so until today. That is when I found out that your club pack products have some really scary products in them. First, they aren't vegan (this is not the issue although I don't see why this is necessary to put in bread). What really scared me was that you put TBHQ in your bread. This is an additive to food that preserves its shelf life. Your label says (antioxidant) which is misleading. Although it is classified as such, it is not a healthy antioxidant such as the one found in plant based foods. A well-designed government study found that this additive increased the incidence of tumors in rats. And according to the National Library of Medicine, cases of vision disturbances have been reported when humans consume TBHQ. They also cite studies that have found TBHQ to cause liver enlargement, neurotoxic effects, convulsions, and paralysis in laboratory animals. It has also been linked to human behavioural issues such as ADHD.
My ask of you is that you remove this additive from your bread products. I will be boycotting your store and will spread the word to my online mom groups if you refuse my request. You might think that I am just one voice, but with 4 children I am deeply involved in online mom groups and my voice is well respected. These groups consist of 150-800 moms per group across Canada. That is a lot of moms who I have known for many years. You can mark my words that I can impact the sales of at least your bakery. I do not mean to come across as threatening, but I also don't take lightly you poisoning the population of Canada and increasing the demands of our health care system in order to save a few bucks. TBHQ is cheap and it preserves your food, but that is not worth the lives and health of our fellow citizens. Please stop the use of this additive in our foods. I expect a response back to this message as soon as possible. I look forward to hearing your plans to change this unhealthy and dangerous practice.
Sincerely,

food items
This has been going on for about a year at the Real Canadian Superstore located in Strathroy Ontario. They have been selling food items that are toxic and have caused my family and friends great illness. I don't know if they are not preserving the groceries in the correct manner or if chemicals are spilling into the grocery items while the employees clean the supermarket. But this issue has come to my attention and I feel that as a consumer I have the responsibility to address this matter to the complaints department. Two of my cousins have ended up in the hospital and another friend of mine has been hospitalized for the past year. Something needs to be done about the Superstore at this location or else I fear what will happen to the residents of Strathroy who shop at this location. I request that the board investigate this supermarket to make sure that the food items are safe and can be consumed by customers without them having to risk their lives. Please take my complaint seriously and investigate this supermarket as soon as possible.
unethical behavior
Hi Corinda here i had talked to the RCMP on March 18 th 2017 and they talked to the pharmacy staff and i am convinced that the staff lied to the RCMP by saying there was a glich in the computer to say that my pills were picked up. My pills were picked up on March 16th 2017 at 830 pm while i was atwork . Found out morning of March 17th at 1130 when i went to pick up my Proplolnol 80 pills .
I am sorry to say but, if it was just the computer glich the pills would be on thier several medication pick up spots, and the pills were not there at all, i witnessed the pharmacist counting out my pills and bottled it, without
the papers that go into the bag explaining the medication. The pharmacist and pharmacist assistant both had worried looks on thier faces, as i know they can be in very big trouble for giving out pills to the wrong person .
I am emailing you to let you know that the person they gave to has my pills, i saw them and this person is a pill dealer, she steals pills and other drugs to sell . This person also said that you delivered my pills to my house, but
1: store has never delivered to me at all, and they wouldnt leave the pills with a niehbour ( hopefully not ) but i am wondering, with her statement of the delivery, i realized that she does have them.
2: she stole my information from my place and a empty pill bottle, when she looked after my cat who had surgery, while i was at work for 4 hrs.
3: this person has stole from your store many times, and other stores and civilains, as i saw on her criminal record, she gets her prescription from her doctor and 2 hrs later they are sold then she steals from anyone, she has stole my seroquel 100 mg 3 month supply.
When talking to RCMP and they said that it was a glich i knew it wasnt at all for the facts i just wrote, and i feel like i am not taken seriously by your store and RCMP, makes me sick
that staff in a pharmacy can lie so easy, so they dont loose thier jobs, integrity in your store is awfull .
I see now that the staff has no accountability for thier mistakes, i know for a fact that since the person who got my pills will continue as she knows that the pharmacy doesnt check ID, which i think they should from now on.
When this happens again with me or others i hope that they dont kill someone for giving out other peoples meds .
I will never shop thier again and my meds with be filled some where else and if this is not taking care of professionally, accountability, instead of blaming it on technology, and admitt to all authorities
your ### up i will put this complaint in all media out there and newspapers !
People need to know its thier right to protect themselves.
Thanks i guess
fruit products
The fruits looks attractive when you see them, but you cut them to consume they are very disgusting and i end up throwing them out. This has been going on for quite few years now and i am not going to purchase any fruits any more. I taught the company cares about the customers they serve, but in contrary they are here to make money with out any consideration to our health or well being. Please see the picture to understand what i am complaining about.
so fresh unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Hi,
I shop at the Superstore on Weston Road every week.
I went grocery shopping in the evening on March 17/17. The almond milk in the natural foods cooler was all out of stock. So I settled for buying a small Almond Breeze unsweetened vanilla almond milk.
I went back to the Superstore at 11:30am, Sunday March 19 in the hopes that the almond milk would be restocked. And guess what? Still the same situation as Friday...no almond milk in the cooler.
I went to customer service to ask when the So Fresh unsweetened vanilla almond milk would be restocked and the person in the natural food section said they have it in stock, they just haven't put it out yet. The customer service lady told m to come back tomorrow. Really?
What is that? How long does it take to restock your cooler/shelves?
Absolutely ridiculous!
This sucks as I had to settle again and purchase unsweetened vanilla cashew milk.
I would like a reply by a call back, [protected] or an email at [protected]@msn.com.

meat department
I love the Strathroy RCSS, I think everyone there is wonderful and super friendly..except for one man at the meat department. He is incredibly rude and refuses to serve me when I go there. Do you know how it feels to feel like you are bothering someone? It is very uncomfortable and I would like this to be addressed. He stares me down as he walks by and truly feel like he hates me. I am not sure what I have done to have him treat me this way. i don't know his name but he is very tall and a bigger man. No customer should have to feel unwelcome.
credit card sales
I was shopping on Mar 17th 2017 at conferderation park region superstore in Saskatoon, SK, Canada. One inside credit card sales approached me. I politely refused his request for application for PC credit card, but he keeps on selling the credit card to me, which makes me feel very disturbed. This is not the first time I have met aggressive credit card sales in Superstore, and since 2016 I have met many different ones at the same location. I deeply understand and respect the idea of face to face credit card selling, however, sales people should respect the time of customer as well. I have remembered one of the credit card sales even asked me "why not " (not march 17th) when I refused to have one PC credit card, and I really want to tell him"it is none of your business". Aggressive sales only makes me have negative feeling about PC credit card.
farmers market lemon meringue pie
Bought the pie today and it reads ready to serve and when I brought it home and cut it it was frozen solid very disappointed. Why would it be frozen when it states ready to serve. I was unaware that you even froze your pies. I always shop at this store for freshness and am really going to second guess my decision, if your pies are frozen when they are suppose to be fresh what else is wrongly labelled...?
less product in the box than described
March 6, 2018.
I have purchased a box of Presidents Choice Club Pack Sweet and Salty chewy bars. As described on the box it says it comes with 18 bars. 9 peanut and 9 almond. Upon opening the box I realized there was a lot of empty space. The box only contained 12 bars. That's only 66% of the product that I purchased.
As a University student this upsets me very much. I chose to shop at your retail stores because of the competitive pricing and variety of products. My budget is specific and small, as any other customer I expect 100% of the product of which I have purchased to be given to me. Unfortunately I have misplaced my receipt but still find it of value to send it a complaint so that this issue can be resolved. Personally resolved for myself and for any other customers who are potentially going to purchase this specific product.
I would like to be contacted for further information.
Thank you.
the pharmacy
I have a complaint in regards to the pharmacy at superstore. Prescriptions should be very confidential yet, on many occasions I had the pharmacy at superstore talk to my family about which medications I'm taking. That s just not right. I had my mom freak out on me and that shouldn't have even happened. It's personal information and should not be given up at ease.
halal food assortment
I went to Calgary Trail superstore in Edmonton to buy newly introduced Zabihah Halal Pizza on March 04, 2017. I was pissed off when i saw that halal stuff is being stocked next to Pork dumplings! I mean halal is halal for a reason, they have so good selection of halal and non halal meats and meat products but they got this one spot to keep pork and halal together. Why on earth you will do that? Never made a purchase...
unethical behavior by cashier
Date of incident: 01MAR17 @ 2:27 pm
Store # 02800 Term Z028004C Slip # 770000 REG 4
Location 2549 Weston Road, Toronto, Canada
Manager: Aaron Kornacki
Description of incident: I, the customer am a minority Caucasian Canadian. The cashier was brown skin, continued to carry a conversation with another brown skin man that was standing behind her at a closed register station. This man appeared to be a friend of the cashier. The cashier had her head continuously turned, facing the man behind her, continued to visit, while casually grasping for grocery items as she felt them come to her on the conveyor belt to be scanned in between her sentences. She was not concentrating on what she was doing, as the line up of people continued to increase at register number 4.
Luckily, these people are being gradually replaced by "do-it-yourself" check-outs, similar to what the "Fortinos" grocery store has.
I asked this cashier to focus on what she was doing. She then teamed up with the man she was talking too, and both claimed I was rude.
Do yourself a favor and send this lady to the warehouse so she can't be distracted.
