Sick and tired of the "price rip-off game". I am convinced I am not the only shopper feeling overwhelmed from the time I enter the Sobeys parking area (first contending for princess parking next to "disabled, and "mommy and baby" - (which by the way never existed a few years back, another sign of wokeness times. So, may I ask for dedicated marked parking with a picture of a grandpa painted and embedded into the parking spot pavement? A parking spot reserved for seniors? There is a misconception that “older” may mean “disabled”. Thinking about it, "mommy and baby" can move one or two over to the left to make way for grandpa and grandma parking, right next to "disabled", I mean, us older dudes and folks may not be too far away from legitimate disability. "Mommy and baby" are still young. They can walk that one or two extra parking spots?). Moving on, enter the store only to find all smaller carts are gone - (gee, this is going to be a long shopping experience. The whole of Bedford just arrived. It's like hunting season. Everyone chase the small carts. Do you know why? The smaller the cart the less you can load up, the more money you can safe. Bingo! That's why the large carts are standing there at the entrance, like rail cars that no longer operate, merely filling the "train yard"). Sobbeys, don't you read the change of times? Yeh, invest in more of the small carts. The big ones are redundant due to the cost of living - (which by the way is as a result of carbon taxes, which in return is the result of an obsession to beat the rest of the world on lowering greenhouse gas emissions (GhGe). Yet, Canada clocks in at an already whopping low ~1.51% of total global GhGe, one of the lowest. I’ll argue, Canada is ahead in the race to netzero, AKA 2050).Before the dreadful price overwhelmness sets in, you already feeling exhausted. You have not even entered the shop.Make your way through the aisles, and you feel like your dreaming. 2- to 4- days ago you can swear the price was lower with a few cents to a dollar plus. Butter, eggs, chicken, beef, cheese, juice, frozen food items, fresh vegs, not to mention fruit, you know that healthy stuff, so you can stay away from a crippling gvt healthcare system, .......etc., etc.By the time you get to the cashier - (both, self checkout and labour operated), the blood pressure has rissen to 911-level . O geee, the line-ups, only a very few pay points are open out of ~13 or so. I am thinking, yeh Canada is a developed nation, yet the core of the culture is "lineup rodeo gallore". You see the line-up already starts when you legit apply to immigrate to Canada. No wonder this grt country has a massive productivity challenge. It is a control game. The longer they can cage you in, the more money you are likely to spend.In a nutshell, Sobeys, you'r not worthy even of a -1 review score. Your shopping experience on offer is bad, yet you enjoy to do everything to shoot more holes into our wallets. Shame on you. Not even to point out the latest trick, "price lock", OMG, it is laughable. How dare you mess with our minds only to rip us off with more of the same BS. We want to see things getting affordable again, not another David Copperfield episode.

I spent over $120 on a few bags of groceries at the self checkout the morning of February 26.As I near the front doors, an employee comes running down the hall yelling, "Sir, sir!" She wanted to check my receipt to ensure that I paid. Meanwhile, I didn't see her asking any of the grey-haired customers for their receipts, no chasing after any of the women with strollers. So what's wrong with me? Am I not dressed nicely enough for Sobeys? Do I walk too fast? Too slow? Is my beard too long?You're the criminals charging a "fair markup" for your products, so don't come chasing after me.

This store randomly decides to stop serving anything at their hot counter. It's so frustrating. God forbid they have signage explaining why either...

Very expensive store. It has variety of meat, seafood but cost is a factor. Great Location - Larry Uteck and Peakview way in Bedford.

Pricing out cooperatives. Creating food deserts.
Светлана Пономаренко

Blair Cole
Tidy store. Great location for ageing shoppers.
Alana Murray
I know it's like this service ever since it opened up. What I really like is the extra large parking spots. Brilliant!
Judy Sullivan
Very clean store

Love this location, always an easy layout and good quality selection.
I really like the layout of this store. The lighting is very good. Not so bright to overpower sensitive eyes. The store is also quieter than other superstores I've been too. Good job in designing!

Good luck lace and food

"Please wait for assistance.""Please place the item in the bagging area.""Please wait for assistance."The self-checkout machines at this location are the worst. They are calibrated to be overly sensitive and there seems to be no pleasing them. The staff person working at the self-checkouts said everyone hates them and even the staff want them replaced.
