Ya gotta stop with these tear jerker stories.  I mean, the Real Canadian Superstore where I live is such a paragon of customer service, product quality and ethics that the community would be devastated if it closed.

Here's a thought.  If Loblaw paid somewhat higher wages maybe they could employ higher quality people to stock their shelves overnight so I don't constantly arrive home to find that a product is squashed, cracked, broken or slit with a box knife.  Or maybe they could lose the deceptive price tags - you know "Buy in Groups of X" price but the single (higher) price is absent or illegible.

Yes, prices at Thrifty Foods (Sobey) are higher but the quality of staff and product is also significantly higher (at least here where I live).  And Thrifty does online order, home delivery for $4.95 pick charge and $3.00 delivery.
