This is my neighborhood grocery store that I frequently come to. It is conveniently located on my way home from work so it makes it for easy to pick up a few items or do a big grocery run. I find that the store carries a nice variety of items whether it is organic, ethnic, bulk, produce or locally sourced items and for reasonable prices. The store is fairly clean. Right now there are renovations happening to expand the store so there is a little more disorganization than normal but the staff are very helpful showing where to find where the products are now located. I am always left with a smile from the store greeter wishing me a good night which is a nice personal touch.

Straight up: This grocery store is more expensive than other grocery stores, even other Save On locations(esp meat… normally Save On is the cheapest place to get chicken with $ 126 packs, but not this location). However, it makes up for the hefty prices in convenience. This is on my walk home from the LRT to my apt after work and while I do own a car and can drive elsewhere, sometimes it’s just nice to stop by quickly while walking home. They also have a pretty decent produce selection(especially fruits), quite a good selection of local/organic/gluten free type options, and a nice deli area with some pretty good pre-made salads(I love the roasted corn salad!). Also — it looks like they bought the Quizno’s out that used to share the building(along with another store I don’t recall), and they’re expanding! Hopefully this will mean the selection will get even better.

I prefer Save On to all other grocery stores in Edmonton. There’s two locations I frequent, and love them both. Produce, meat, and even the treats. I’m a huge fan of the fresh salad bar at the 109 st location, and the deli is top notch. Save On will always have me coming back for groceries!

I like that Save On Foods tends to place more emphasis on local and unique products than any other supermarket chain. I dislike their prices and«Save on More» card. Why should I have to give over my personal information and spending habits in exchange for(slightly more) reasonable prices?

Centrally-located, large, lots of staff, good selection — now that the Jasper Avenue location of Sobey’s is closed, this is probably your best bet if you want to go grocery shopping in the downtown area. Lots of parking too.

If it weren’t for this save on, I’d probably eat out almost every night. They produce and veggies are spectacular for the price. They do also have a lot of semi-local grown content being from Alberta or BC. I also really enjoy the fruit tarts they have in the baking section. It’s tasty enough to tricky myself into thinking it’s healthy which is exactly what I want from a fruit tart. The cheese section here is also pretty extensive for a grocery chain. I could spend 10 mins looking for the right one to try. Although it is a busy location, I am surprised it isn’t busier give the population of the area. The parking lot is a mess though. Cars don’t have a lot of patients here and pedestrians seem aloof navigating the parking lot. Lots of businesses in the complex. There are absolutely better options nearby like all the farmers markets. However, as far as save-ons go it’s pretty awesome.

My local supermarket of choice. I have shopped here consistently since 2000. It is a very busy store with a lot of walk in customers. Self-scan is convenient for small orders. It now carries a lot more selection of local products. The busiest shopping day of the week is generally Sundays.
