Not Me Again at That Store - Price Matchcommented on Dec 24 2012 7:20AM |
| A few weekends ago I price matched some grocery items at the NoFrills located at Mavis and Steels in Brampton, Ontario and the cashier defaced my flyers by scratching over the items with a black marker. When asked why she was marking on my flyer she said it was their POLICY to prevent me from price matching those same items at another time. Since then and before I have shopped-and-compared at many places including other No Frills stores and that has never happened to me before. I have never felt more unwelcome at any store before. I left the store wondering if this was personal or is it really a policy for No Frills to embarrass it's customers. |

| I live in Chatham and it is almost a given that the local NoFrills either runs out of specials or doesn't even get them. Usually end up going to nearest store out of town but that is a pain in the butt. Why can't I find the store phone number so I can call & save a trip if not available. |

| i dont understand their flyer what pages are the four day sale and what pages are until oct 11. I really hate 3 or 4 or weekend only sales they make absolutely no sense as they still wont have it in stock and when you get to store you still dont what is the quick sale. |
pixles Dumas - unethical advetisingcommented on Oct 7 2012 1:28PM |
| No Frills have sales and they plaster the counter with low price tags. It makes you think the low price refers to the item on display ,but the price tag is usually for something placed on top above having nothing to do with the sale item. It is a total deception and planned to catch your eye |

Rocky T - limit quantites on sale itemscommented on Aug 12 2012 5:25PM |
| Hamilton's 2 Main St locations always seem to be out of popular sale items as soon as Friday afternoon rolls around. If it is a "while quantities last" sale then there should be a limit purchase on such sale items, like a 3 per customer limit. I would really app it if this sudden shortage issue would be addressed. it's not as though I were coming in on Thursday evening at 8:30 PM and expecting the sale item stocked. |

| Why are most people wasting our time with "crap" that is garbling on about everything but No Frills. Let's keep to the topic folks! As for No Frills in Kitchener, I find that they most often have what is on special, and I enjoy going there - even if it is a bit further to drive. Very helpful staff at this location. Will keep going there. |
rmat - flyer deals - hot items a hoax?commented on Feb 2 2012 9:15AM |
| more often than not, the hot deals of the week in Your NF flyers are GONE by Monday and sometimes before then . No such thing as rain-check ( what's up with that) - just out. this is esp the case at the Danny's NF in Hamilton. this should not be the case. You ought to be stocked with the on sale item until Thursdays. It just makes it look like you're really not offering it at the said price. |

ML - Terrible customer service at No Frillscommented on Nov 4 2011 4:26PM |
| I tried to return a $5 item to No Frills (where I shop practically daily) and the STORE MANAGER said "We are in the business of making a profit, not taking returns". Seriously? I asked about customer service and she just shrugged. I won't shop there again. |
James - No baskets in storecommented on Oct 31 2011 6:39PM |
| I am very disgusted by the lack of shopping baskets at the joe's no frills at Kingston rd and lawrence. There are hardly never any when you walk in, and finding one is no easy task. Staff are no help. Cashiers suggest it's because a few of them are being stolen. Is this any reason to punish the regular customers? Many customers are walking around with their hands full of groceries. It's become a joke. Worst part is that nothing is getting done and no one seems to care. |

Brian Dougan - Good Readingcommented on Sep 24 2011 8:23AM |
| **o Folks! This is good stuff--so funny. "Fake bananas"....Ice cream cones that "crumble in your hands." I live and work in South Korea, and have good memories of shopping at Food Basics in Orleans, ON; on Tenth Line. Friendly; hands-on owner and his son; low prices, and always honored his flyer ads. Complain if you must; but be thankful for what you have. Come to Korea...run of the mill beef steak; unaffordable at $20-30 /kg. Ground beef; 200 grams (a small hamburger) for $7.00. Fruit and vegetables? Ha ha. Very limited selection. Spinach is now $5.00 for a small package (out of season.) Apples? About $1.00 each. (Fresh and locally grown.) Rice: This is Asia; after all. Ready? Four kilogram bag of rice=$13.00. Carrots; a bag of two washed carrots for almost $2.00. Cheddar cheese...only sold in the big chain supermarkets. English old cheddar; 200 grams; $5.48. "Fake" cheese slices (taste like wax; makes a low quality grilled cheese. Five slices=$2.25-3.50. Bread; good price; but mostly heavily sugared. Prices have increased world-wide, and I'm okay over here; but I miss shopping for food in Canada. I really enjoyed reading all of the comments; quite nostalgic for me. |
Bram - Flyer September 23commented on Sep 24 2011 7:10AM |

nightshawks1 - No pros but deff CONScommented on Aug 28 2011 4:54AM |
| No Frills is exactly what you get when you shop there.No Selection, No Signs of intellect, No Interest in patrons,No Meats. Personally, i would stay away from anything that could possibly be cross contaminated.Think about it . If they operate the meat section the way they operate the rest of the store, WELL ???? |

| I've just spent some time looking over the comments left. To me, many of them are just crass, vulgar and unnecessary. You know who you are and should have a better manner in explaining yourselves without the objectionable language and absolutely rude comments about some of the other commentators. I shop at No Frills in Brampton and have always had courteous attendants, and no problems, however, some of the other shoppers leave much to be desired. |

| This is for the Danny's No Frills and their wannabe cop who treats ALL customers like criminals. This security guy has got to go! I was shopping with my 4yr old daughter and he was following me around like I was a thief and when I confronted him about it he said it's because all latinos and other races are thiefs. How could you have an ignorant loser work there???....it's gotta be because of the loser managers who did absolutely nothing against his lack of professionalism. This store should be looked into for overall performance. Upper James No Frills is awesome and treats everyone the same. |

Barry - Danny's no frills hamilton ontariocommented on Apr 12 2011 7:31PM |
| This one is pretty good. Of course some of the same issues with sale items not being available, but have had pretty good luck when going on the first day of the sales. The manager is this crazy fella of unknown nationality who is constantly cracking jokes with the customers, chasing shoplifters like a madman while screaming and cursing in whatever his language is, and is a genuinely helpful (if creepy) guy. There is another no frills about 12 blocks away and its like night and day, this other store is everything that is wrong with grocery stores today. So if you find a good one, stick with it and support it. |
JGriffiths - No Frills, sales etc.commented on Apr 12 2011 2:33PM |
| Just an attempt to address a few of the issues raised on the forum. I am an employee of No Frills and am in no way defending them or attacking them rather explaining the position employees are often placed in. In regards to rain checks employees don’t give them out because none exists rain checks are not company policy it is a situation that is out of our hands. In regards to sale items in the weekly flyer, it is true we are often out of stock and very often the company is aware in advance that they cannot stock these sales from the get go. Sales are a method to get people into the store, chances are once you’re there you will make purchases. Different stores have different priority levels sort to speak, some cities are given a higher preference for stock if you fall at the end of the line in west no-where-ville perhaps your store’s stock won’t be as high a priority as say the GTA. A product’s country of origin is a great concern to customers again this is not a decision made by individual stores or it’s management this is a head office decision, trust me they don’t care about buying local, Canadian or anything else they care about their cost and their profit. It’s a nightmare for employees I’m the first person you see I have no power and am not in charge of ordering product nor am I permitted to make signage but I take flack for all levels of performance failure. I would suggest to customers that they call the number on the flyer or email their complaint this will get Loblaws’ attention. Those clerks and cashiers you see on the floor are minimum wage employees that only repeat what they’ve been instructed to tell customers. Retail is not a democracy! Even amongst department managers there is very often limited power, the decisions are made from head office and the individual store owner. If customers truly wish to be heard you have to take your concerns directly to them. |

| why is it that they put things on sale to attract people into the store..and then you go to buy it and theres a limit...and then fuss aboout it...just write on the damm flyer that theres a limit! it aviods so much arguing and shyttt if you just let everyone buy as much as they wanted and stocked on sale items like crazy you wouldnt have to argue with us! and you would make shyt loads of money!!! |

Pennycommented on Dec 23 2010 9:03PM |
| All the stores go though a warehouse...and they divide the goods up among the stores.Not every store always will get whats in the flyer on the firt day the flyer goes into effect. Sometimes the item does not get to the store untill the 2nd or 3rd day of the sale. So if you go the first day and your item isnt there chances are it will be sometime that week.I know its a P.I.T.A...most managers i have seen are willing to write a rain cheque on that item..so the next time your in you can get it at the sale price you wanted. I worked for Loblaw for 2 years and its not just customers that get fustrated..its employees,managers etc when your expecting something to show and it doesnt..then you have to sit and listen to people b**** If something doesnt ring up at sale price if its under $10 you get it free.If its above 10 bucks you get $10 off of your bill either way. |

| why does no frills put things on sale that are not available in stores? I checked all the stores but I couldn't find it anywhere. They all said that they didn't have it. It says "selected stores" but none of the stores have it. |

Dbarcommented on Aug 30 2010 7:38AM |
| Seiously Donna....do you really think buying crap food imported from some unknown country is better then going to local grocery stores? At least at food basics there are local food options. The reason stuff is cheap in chinese markets is because the quality is low and it is purchased all around the world for a fraction of what it's worth...unripe so it can last during shipping...yet people still buy it! I will eat what's in season locally over that any day...and I will pay more for it because it's worth it and so am I!! |

We know how expensive it is when it's not for sale so all you ice-cream lovers out there run I tell you not walk to Sobey's. Sorry No Frills, this deal was too good this week to pass. |
Mark - Give your head a shake, Donnacommented on Aug 17 2010 11:17AM |

Donna - LOLcommented on Aug 12 2010 12:50PM |
| Funny how all of you have the time to chit chat about grocery stores...there's more to life, folks. You want the real deals, go live close to chinatown...the food is so cheap, and at least you're not supporting some mega-corporate-taking-over-the-world crap. |
D. Thomas - Toilet Papercommented on Aug 11 2010 1:35PM |
| Well here we go again. Another sale right. You go to any NO Frills store and they are either "OUT OF STOCK, DID NOT RECEIVE...WAITING FOR TRUCK". Why is it that one store gets "TOO" much as others get none. Toilet paper on sale for $5.77 this week, good luck if you can get any. Customers come from all areas of town, stock up (mainly vendors...greedy) take about 10 packages, go and load it into their vehicles and go back into the store, get more,but goes through a different cashier. Therefore putting limits on items no longer serve any purpose. My main beef is when something like this goes on sale, they run the ad for 1 week only and half that time, they never have any, while dollar days crap and I mean crap run for 2 weeks. Wow good thing other stores price match because I've seen a lot of people going to Walmart. |
Veronika - Re: Out of stock items - not the purchaser's faultcommented on Aug 11 2010 1:27PM |
| If an item is on sale, then people have the right to purchase as many items as they wish. There is no crime in "overpurchasing" items because at the end of the day, they are still paying for what they bought. If there was truly a problem with low stock, then perhaps managers of No Frills should put up a limit sign. These people are not greedy - they are smart; they know how to efficiently shop at low prices. Business owners have contracts with suppliers; they already get low prices; they do not need to waste their time & gas to line at up No Frills. These so-called "greedy" people that you are referring to, are simple people who know a good deal when they see one. At best, they are small business owners who resell these products that they by at almost an equally LOW price - not 10x the original value. When an item is offered at a low sale price, it is up to the store to anticipate the quantity of items that will sell in any given week. If the stock ran out in one day, blame the store not the customers. It is the store's fault for not keeping track of inventory as regularly as they should. I find your comment to be ignorant and quite judgemental. Perhaps it is you who tires from ringing up that many purchases at a time? If so then you probably should apply for a job elsewhere. As long as people pay for what they buy, there is nothing wrong to complain about. No limitations = freedom to purchase. |
Heather - Out of stock sale itemscommented on Aug 6 2010 12:06PM |
| The reason most No Frills are out of stock when something comes on sale is because greedy customers come in and take 20 or 30 of one item that is on sale so and Vendors of variety stores are the worst when Pop is on sale. They load up two carts with Pepsi and regular shoppers get none. Then the Vendors separate them and charge 10 times what they paid for them. I know this...I work at No Frills. It infuriates me when I see this. Then the regular customers don't get any because of other greedy people. Take two or three, not 30 or 40. |

NBcommented on Jun 7 2010 9:04AM |
| I shop at No Frills regularly but am finding it difficult to get to the store while the flyer is still in effect.

Thanks for reading this and taking it into consideration :-) |
Danny - lack of sale itemscommented on May 29 2010 4:03AM |

Jen - NO number or address on the flyers is a BIG NO NOcommented on May 2 2010 12:59PM |
| Front page top right please put your number and address of the store for the area your flyer is going out to - or please do not bother sending it out any more. A real waste of time to find the store by web, and then Zehrs states its out our area, even with NoFrills being apart of Zehrs chain? Someone there in your marketing department seems to be doing 1/2 the job or maybe there are not enough people there to check things before advertising them. I still find there are better content in some things advertised as in the salt and sugar and fat contents in no name products are causing a risk so there for NOT always a good price or deal when hindering a persons health "system" or the child's behavior. In essence the babyfood in the jars are not labelled with all the included ingredients and some ingredients within the ingredients are a risk to young children and adults with allergies or who are celiac or diabetic etc...so we need to go back to basics and not purchase pre-made items due to what the products are containing and are able to put into the pre-made foods. Staying healthy means we can not depend on the labels of premade foods or even what the fruits and vegetables are sprayed with - do we know? Please fix your flyers to show the exact address and telephone number of their location. |

Annecommented on Feb 27 2010 10:15AM |
| The No Frills I shop at usually has their specials and if not they do get them in some time during the sale you just have to keep trying, it happens at all stores. At least the cashiers are usually nice at the one I shop at that is more than can be said at other grocery stores. |
Brenda - Complete Concommented on Feb 25 2010 2:58PM |
| I think No Frills is a complete con. They have all these sales but unless you get there the second they open on the first day of the sale your screwed. Also not one No Frills gives out their phone number so those of us that live more than 50k away don't make the drive for nothing. One thing I can say about the other discount grocers, they're honest and 90% of the time they have the product. I finally gave up on No Frills. My advice unless you live next door shop elsewhere. |

| I can't believe how many people do nothing but complain. Even if the store was opened and everything fully stocked and then they were told that everything was free you would get nothing but complaints because the truth is that you cannot please all of the people all of the time or any of the people any time. We have become a very greedy unsatisfied brood. Time to get back to basics and realize its time to buy what you need , zip your lip and tighten your belt. Look around and appreciate what you have. We have too many people starving out there. Mary Strathroy Ontario. |
