I shop here sometimes. Although the Real Canadian Superstore has good deals. It’s way to packed, the lineups are long and takes a long time to checkout. I find it can be a bit pricey but I guess that’s what you get for living in a expensive city like Calgary.

The pharmacist here is very helpful. I like him a lot he’s knowledgeable and does seem to care. The wait times are usually reasonable for prescription fill but during peak hours ie after work rush it can be up to 45 Mins. As for the store itself well its superstore they’re not much different one to the other. The sunridge location has better ethnic food and the country hills location has fresher produce. But this place is ok too. In the evenings they’re often out of stock especially on sale items. They have a goodlife fitness women’s only club upstairs, and a cooking class area upstairs as well.

The place is clean, the cashier who helped me was nice, BUT… the one who tried to sell me the credit card was not professional at all!!! I think she is Chinese coz she asked me if I know Mandarin. After talking for a while my answer was still no for applying that, so I thanked her for introducing me. She didn’t appreciate my time but also turned to the other way not looking at me n expressed her not satisfied face!!!

Review about PC Cooking School — Heritage Had the opportunity to experience adult cooking class with Ginni Kelley. It was delicious, educational and a great deal. She made a Salmon Escabeche and oven roasted Talapia with Mixed Herb Panko Breadcrumbs. The accompaniments were a couscous and fresh tasting grape tomato salad with chives served on toasted crustinis. The method for cooking the salmon, produced a perfectly cooked, moist dish that accentuated the flavor of the salmon. The class size was small and comfortable. Classes are reasonably priced.

This review is strictly on the Photo Studio part of this Superstore. For the second time in recent months, we had to come and take pictures here. First time was for passport photos and second for portraits. For the second time in a row, we got the same older woman and our experience have been ruin by this woman’s poor attitude and poor photography skill. Giving your customer attitude is a quick way of chasing away customers that pays your salary. On top of that, she doesn’t knwo what she is doing and have no business taking portraits. Any beginner photographers would beat the pictures taken by her. The unfortunately thing is that she seems to be the senior staff there as another girl was asking her questions.

Awful! I keep coming back thinking it would be different I guess that makes me an idiot. Great prices, shitty shitty service, actually non existent. No greeting, no smile and after waiting close to 15 mins with only 2 people in front of me I am done with this store.

This review is really about the PC Cooking School located inside the Real Canadian Superstore. I enjoy having the store in the area and shop here regularly. Although if you shop in the afternoon on a weekend they never have enough cashiers on hand so you wait in line for awhile. If you shop in the evenings they are typically out of stock of a lot of produce. And 3 times in the past month or so their debit/credit machines have been down so you either have to arrive with cash or wait in a long line up hoping the ATM they have inside does not run out of money. For the past 4 years my kids have been partaking in the PC Cooking School run by Chef Amanda. They started out as «Little Hands» and now my daughter participates(when time allows) in the older kids cooking classes on Friday evenings. She has also participated in the summer cooking day camps. These classes are fun for all ages and so well presented. The little hands(3 – 5 yrs old) requires a parent to attend the cooking class with the child. The kids get to eat what they make or take it home to snack on later. It allows them to try new foods depending on the class theme and have fun while doing it. Cooking classes are available for kids or adults and we are always encouraging people with kids to try it out or arranging playdates at the classes! So pleased with our experience with cooking classes, I convinced my daughter to have her birthday party here. Kid’s birthday’s at this cooking school are a complete package. The only thing we had to bring with us, besides our kids, was the loot bags(which I filled full of cooking goodies). All the kids in attendance had a wonderful time at the party and each one left with an 8 inch butterfly cake they got to decorate themselves. Highly recommend the birthday party’s here(ages 6+) and the cooking classes!

A unique superstore with a large selection of fresh Asian vegetables aside from that it is the same as other superstores. The check out lines are always long and and every time I buy extra lean ground beef I find little chunks of bone! so dont buy the ground beef. Aside from that this is a great store and I shop here all the time :)

Lived in this community for 15 years, 12 of those years without a Superstore. Super stoked when they finally built this one and tore down the Zellers.

I defiantly love shopping at Superstore. Not only do they always have amazing prices, its close to my house. Since this is a new store, its much fancier than the other Superstores in the City. It has very high ceilings and bright lights so you never feel like your in a cave looking for food. The aisle are well organized and easy to navigate. I really like the Joe Fresh line they have at Superstores. Always something cute there and they usually have some decent things in their clearance section. Their home department isnt the best but if you going for home goods, you probably arent going to shop at Superstore for those kind of things. In store they do have the Good Life Fitness center, which I know is a plus for some who want to grab dinner after working out. They also have a walk-in clinic(which is not really a walk-in, they say it is but the last time my friend went their as a walk-in they wouldnt accept her saying they arent accepting new patients… wtf is that??) As well the have an optical center and cooking school. I find they always have lots of hot food ready to eat or take home and the quality is not that bad either. They also have a little sushi station where they have premade ones but they can also make platters for you for a reasonable price. I get my prescription at this pharmacy and I find its much cheaper than some other pharmacies PLUS the have a loyalty type program where you get«superbucks» for every prescription you get through them, which can be used towards your grocery bill. Probably the only fault I think this store has is the fact that the self checkouts lines are ALWAYS long during peak hours and people dont seem to grasp the concept of those being for quick check outs not a cart full of grocery check outs. Also, if something is on sale and is a REALLY good price, get it right away as they tend to sell out of those products quickly.

This is my favorite place to shop and I could spend hours in the store. If you like to shop early like I do, then you’re in for a treat because you could shoot a cannon through the place before 9am. There have been many times I’ve grabbed my goods, walked right up to the self-serve check out and been done in no time. The fact that it’s bright, clean and they occasionally play some good music is another reason to visit often. I always buy my junk food here. The President’s Choice«Loads Of» ice cream series is the best if you truly like your ice cream with lots of stuff in it. Based on my experience, no Dairy Queen or Marble Slab Creamery can top this for quality or price. I nearly died and went to heaven when I tried Loads of Pecan Butter Tart ice cream. Seriously! Oh my word, and the Loads of Chocolatey Caramel Treats ice cream! A true ice cream lover would appreciate this line. Also, the giant chocolate bars are good, cheap and the fresh bakery cakes are fantastic. I could go on ’cause I love my sugar. Shopping for the Joe clothing line is a bonus. Really, who is going to notice a shirt on their grocery bill? The workout clothes are just as durable as any other I’ve purchased and the least expensive. I’ve had many compliments on my clothes from here. Another thing worth mentioning is that I don’t freeze my rear off when I browse the refrigerated isles. I hate when that happens! Being that I can run errands during the week day mornings or afternoons, I can attest that this store gives me the most consistent, pleasant shopping experience above all others.

This is a fairly new store/nicely arranged and big… Most of the staff are helpful and friendly and i usually walk out with more than i plan on. It also helps that I work there too. hahaha/ I recently used their optical dept for glasses and they got great styles and great prices that can beat anyone… Their Joe Clothes is some fun too…
