I shop both Sobeys and Superstore, but the majority of our groceries come from Superstore. I like to buy my meat at Chris Brothers though, much better meat and fair prices.

Definetly Sobeys!! A few yrs ago it was all Superstore UNTIL i found a human hair found imbedded in my frozen already packaged hamburger. That was it for me. Sobeys meats are so much better. I will pick up a few odds and ends if they are on sale at superstore (shelf products orfruits and veggies only though).

I shop at CO-OP, but would go to SuperStore before Sobeys. I LOATHE SOBEYS. They have got to have the WEIRDEST layout of all. I can't find a damn thing, nothing makes sense.
And I've never been to Pete's.

Well Pete's is kind of a long drive, though I do pick up some specialty stuff there from time to time. The Stupidstore in NG sucks, they typically only have one checkout open when I go there. So Sobeys on the westside it is

Mostly superstore here  during the weeks between( we go every 2 weeks) if we need small things and junky stuff (haha) Dh or I will go to Sobeys as its only a hop skip and jump from where we live. Also find we get more for our buck at superstore.

Shop at both stores, buy most of my stuff at sobeys, but then go to superstore if they have good sales on. As to above Chaters is good but there is a meat place in Rawdon called Meahaens (spelling wrong). It has been there for a very long time. All local meats, it is the best place for prices and the meat is the best I have ever tasted. They will cut you fresh steaks what ever size you want as soon as you ask.

Sobeys for the Air Miles but I must admit that SuperStore has lower prices on a lot of items. Wal-Mart is also good for some items but I don't jump around the three, I usually just shop at Sobeys and pick-up some stuff at Wal-Mart if I'm there for another reason.

Superstore but only because it is closer to walk. I refuse to buy milk there tho. A 4 litre jug is $6.91 compared to $5.99 at Sobeys. A 2 ltr is $3.63 & at Shoppers it's $3.50  Go figure
I do walk to Sobeys when they have their buy one get one free sale even tho they jack their prices up.
I'll be venturing down to Pete's once it warms up a bit

Usually the Superstore, they seem to be the cheapest. I will pick up the occasional thing at Sobeys. I don't think I've ever spent a cent at Pete's. I haven't even been in one in 5-10 years.
