Hell no - I stopped shopping at Loblaws since the boycott and I haven’t missed Shoppers Drug Mart one bit. I know that Shoppers is only one component of this health care empire but if it’s any indication, I won’t be needing anything else from Per Bank either. 🫡🫡🫡
Honestly the Boycott had me going to my local bakery, butcher and farmers market. In some ways it’s surprisingly cheaper and in some ways it’s a little (and I mean little) bit more expensive but knowing that my money is going to my local community / farmers is 100,000% worth it. Haven’t had to go back since.
I also go to local bakeries and farmers markets. It’s less expensive actually in some ways, and it’s not like you’re saving significant amounts at Loblaws stores. Fucking oat milk yogurt is 7 dollars a carton there FFS.
Yeah we have a local Fruiticana and fruit and veg is super cheap compared to Loblaws. But for Oatmilk I started going to Walmart for $4.50 rather than Loblaws at $6.99.

Same. Went to a local grocery store instead, it’s great.
