Store staff are really helpful. One of the staff also thought me how to pick good watermelon by demonstration. The watermelon I took home was perfect. Thank you so much for being so helpful and I learned something new ! Next time, I know how to shop for good watermelon

Priced reasonably and a fresh produce available year round provides its local community with Amenities all year around. It’s located at main bus roads so is easily accessible as well. If you are a new comer in Victoria a visit to save on will provide you with options regarding your grocery shopping. Don’t forget to check the fliers for discounts. Happy shopping folks.

I shop here pretty often, it's decent, but my experience recently was soured by watching a power tripping manager be needlessly rude to his employees.
Two ladies were just chatting and having a laugh while they were working, one was stocking shelves. I love to see that- we're all human, and should get what enjoyment we can in our workplaces. But then here came the manager who asked what they were doing, and one said she was going on break and he told her to take her break somewhere else. He came off terse and arrogant in the short interaction. I later saw him snapping at other employees about whether they were doing their tasks right. He just seemed like a jerk lording over his employees for no reason. It's a grocery store, we aren't saving lives here, get a grip.
Feel like I can't go there in good faith if the employees aren't being treated with respect.

If I could, I would give them a lower score, however this is only based on the bakery and the deli. The highest prices of any grocery store, and the least amount of quantity for the price.
Just look at these burnt crumbled smashed up Granny Smith apple pies what an embarrassment, I would never put these out for sale. Speaking of sale, coincidentally Granny Smith apples were the only ones on sale, the other flavours were regular price. Hmmm I wonder why? 🧐 haha
I would’ve just saved myself the embarrassment and just thrown these pies away.
Bad business.
Upon returning 8 days ago, it’s good to see that the prices didn’t disappoint and are still through the roof and the pies are burnt, smashed, and crumbled. Here are a few new photos.

I dislike this place for so many reasons. I'll dig in to one single point. Why do you have signs above the isles with missing information? Coming from the front of the store I can see where canned goods are located on the sign in the isle. From the back of the store you cannot see this information but instead have void spots on the sign where this information could be listed. WHY?
