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!!

Mark - Give your head a shake, Donna
commented on Aug 17 2010 11:17AM
Donna there are more than 150 No Frills stores in Ontario alone. What makes you assume there is a Chinatown nearby for the vast majority of customers outside Toronto? Pull your head out of your downtown Bohemian scene, dear.

Donna - LOL

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 Paper
commented 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.

Heather - Out of stock sale items
commented 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.

josh alwaysgone - whats not going to be there
commented on Jul 30 2010 7:38AM
Guelph, Ontario, Silvercreek Pkwy store.

EVERYTIME I go to this store for things in this flyer, weather it be 10 am, or 8:30pm, most of the "great deals" advertised in the flyer are not there or there was a "mistake" in the flyer...thanks.

It seems the stock boys only stock facebook updates, and answers starting in "uhhhhhh..."

STILL...I will always shop here 'cause it right beside my house, and its a very interesting store, my International market!

I shop at No Frills regularly but am finding it difficult to get to the store while the flyer is still in effect. I'd like to see it go back to the way it was so I don't have to keep revamping my grocery list and make trips to several stores instead of just one. Thanks for reading this and taking it into consideration :-)

Danny - lack of sale items
commented on May 29 2010 4:03AM
if you work, the odds of getting items on sale even Friday evenings or Saturday morning is impossible. It was much better shopping when sale didnt start til Sat. to give a vast majority of shoppers the same discounted price or better planning in upcoming sales based on previous event numbers.

This is "hands down" the best owner of a No-Frills. Shop there regularly and enjoy the dialogue with the staff as much as the shopping. Great values, great people, great staff.

I regularly shop at No Frills in Newmarket, and there is a clerk that has been there for a while. Her name is Casee. Hands down, the nicest, friendliest, most helpful clerk i've come across. And always a nice smile on her face. I'd like to have staff like that at my office!!Hang on to this one Steve & Adele

susy main - picton no frills
commented on Apr 15 2010 11:07AM
the no frills store in picton ontario is not one of the chains best. needs some serious overhaul and maybe a head office visit. if they set up a complaint box it would always be full.

i have no problems with the no frills in kitchener i go in for just the sales and come out with a cart full they have so many more in store specials before this one opened i went to the one in elmira and i think those people who are dissatisfied with a particular store can blame the owners not the store themselves

commented on Mar 4 2010 11:53AM
I purchased 2% milk (Nielsen Dairy OH) and it was priced at $6.67. I just noticed the price when I arrived home. I tried to find their tel. no. but was disappointed that I could not find it. I called 211 and a lady tried to search but still could not find it. Tried 411 and just the same, their store is not on the listing. Nick & Mira is all over the Richmond Hill News except for their phone no. Thats Business!! Thank You.

You have a better chance of winning the lottery, than ever finding an advertised special in stock at the No Frills franchise here in Newmarket!

Frank T. - No Frills is Number 1
commented on Mar 1 2010 11:36PM
I'm very, very happy with No Frills and as long as they keep coming out with variety in their sales and keep their prices down, I will continue buying most of my groceries there. For a while, I also shopped at Food Basics but their prices have gone way up since they've been taken over by Metro. Thanks No Frills....from a long time loyal customer!

commented 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.

Flyer week: Feb 19, 10 - Feb 25, 10

Brenda - Complete Con
commented 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.

commented on Feb 25 2010 11:51AM
There are many more $1 items in store. Best deals of the year, a lot of things are $1 instead of 2.99.

commented on Jan 1 2010 4:22PM
This is a reference to the Christmas flyer. I visited two different N Frills on 2 different days hoping to purchase the beef roast special advertised. Both stores had nothing on display. This has been an ongoing theme with this company and a big reason why I do more and more shopping 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.

More and more frustrated when I visit the store. Specials are picked over and not quickly restocked. Large price increases on some items followed by "locked in price" announcement..which is insulting. Shopping more and more elsewhere.

The Catelli whole wheat pasta is on sale for 0.99, and has a cupon to save $1.00 on Catelli whole wheat noodles, which are also on sale for 0.99. You end up getting a penny credit :)

I would like to see more Ethnic food sold in the No Frills in Parry Sound. I understand there is not a large Ethnic population, more "meat and potato" type people, but I think if it was brought to the store, people would buy it. Better selection of Asian, Chinese, Japanese and Indian foods would sell. More of thier noodles, sauces and it would be great if you could have a Seafood section. I am seafood deprived....Help.

No Frills carries major national brands and exclusive brands such as Teddy's Choice, No Name, President's Choice and President's Choice Organics which is a line of organic food. They have a great weekly flyer providing great grocery products at great prices. Some stores feature a pharmacy known as Drugstore Pharmacy. No Frills' grocery prices are relatively low, this is maintained by having customers bag their own groceries. Grocery shoppers are also expected to provide their own bags in order to save the store expense of plastic bags. Although they are available for purchase, you should bring your own reusable bags for environmental purposes. As an alternative, product shipping boxes are provided to the customers to use to transport their groceries, further reducing the need for plastic bags.
