Service.....WHAT "service"? Customer Service? Actually, the people that work there are great to deal with, never had a problem but I don't need to see CS very often. Aisles? If you had a MAP that was ACCURATE or know the aisles by heart it won't matter. I can (and have) gone two days in a row and not found the SAME ITEM in the SAME AISLE as the day before. IF, and it is a BIG "IF", I can find SOMEONE, ANYONE in an aisle to ask "where might I find____?", I usually get a response of "I think it is...." or "I'm not sure, that is not my department." Or my ABSOLUTE FAVE... "It should be....". "SHOULD BE"...you "THINK IT IS..."....well, I NEED You to KNOW. Not GUESS or WONDER. KNOW. If you work in a grocery store where I have to pack my own groceries, WHICH ORIGINALLY was RCSS's mantra with their advertising cheaper pricing based on "PRICES BEING CHEAPER BECAUSE YOU PACK YOUR OWN GROCERIES". THAT has clearly gone to the wayside because RCSS IS NOT "CHEAPER" by a long shot anymore and hasn't been for a LONG TIME. But, here I am, STILL packing my own groceries as well as HUNT for them. The LEAST you can do is EDUCATE YOUR STAFF to KNOW where items are in the store. I rarely am asking for a specific brand or size, usually a question such as "Cheerios" might be as detailed as I get but I DO EXPECT someone with a "Real Canadian Superstore" uniform on, to KNOW WHERE THINGS ARE in the store they work in. I do NOT think that is too much to ask for. I REALLY don't. I RARELY see them stocking shelves in their blue shirts so I guess they are paid to walk around and "think/wonder/guess" where items in the store are because they certainly are NOT there to HELP, at least not with any certainty. IF I had the time to hunt and go aisle by aisle, I wouldn't ASK for HELP. I would do it myself. The ONLY staff that have been 100% correct & known EXACTLY where something IS, are the staff I loathe bothering as they are the ones packing groceries to be picked up. They are on a time limit & I know I would not want to wait because they were doing SOMEONE ELSE'S JOB rather than pack my already ordered groceries which is a service I PAY FOR. Sadly, I have HAD to ask them & I am clear in apologizing, speaking fast and thanking them profusely & forbidding them to SHOW me. "No, no...you have a job to do & I am super sorry I had to bug you at all as there is NO ONE I can find to help me!". Of course they are ALWAYS kind & gracious about it but if 20 people ask them the same question while they are picking groceries, the items they have are going to be melted, warm or worse, so it is NOT fair to them. I am well versed it is not their job. It IS the staff in the blue shirts job though, yet they can only wonder/guess/think about where something is. THAT is IF you can find anyone and IF they speak ENGLISH. No, I do NOT CARE where someone is from. I am a Nurse and have been for MANY YEARS and EVERYONE BLEEDS RED. I have made it MY PERSONAL mission to learn phrases in several languages that help ME with my job in order to help the patient. So YES, I DO expect to be able to UNDERSTAND what someone is saying when I ask a question. Not too much to ask for is it? Today was the tipping point for this VERY UNHAPPY & overdue review. My husband had to stop to get sandwich meat for his lunches. He stood at the deli counter for OVER 10 (TEN) MINUTES trying to "politely yell" for "help" by yelling "Hello, hello...is anyone working here?". Yelling that isn't polite sounding no matter how hard you try but he tried. I KNOW because I was on the phone with him. He was FAR more patient than I would be. NOT HAPPY. OVER TEN MINUTES for someone to come to the Deli to help him. He said that there was literally NO ONE from Tim Hortons all the way down that East wall that the Deli is on. NOT A SINGLE HUMAN to be found. AFTER TEN MINUTES, someone FINALLY came out of the back.REALLY? SERVICE? EMPLOYEES that actually KNOW the store. By the way, this asking that you have employees KNOW the store they work in, is BEFORE you started Reno's on the Deerfoot Meadows Location. So, no excuse with that detail. NOW, we don't BOTHER TRYING to find anyone because if they didn't KNOW BEFORE reno's they sure in the heck do NOT know NOW! Shape up. The COST of MY TIME is far far MORE VALUABLE than what I "save" with you so shopping at Co-op again is starting to look like a savings in money AND TIME. Money, they will match a price. TIME, THAT is a COMMODITY that even YOU CAN NOT AFFORD TO BUY BACK, not FOR ANYONE or FROM ANYONE. TIME is the most PRECIOUS commodity we have and if you do NOT believe me, come visit me in ER and I will be more than happy to show you grieving families that would give ANYTHING for 5 more minutes with a loved one. TIME is a PRECIOUS thing and you seem to take it for granted that your customers don't care. WE DO! read more

Deerfoot Meadows is one of my favourite places to head out to early on Saturday mornings. This complex has grown significantly in the past 3 years. Undoubtedly the flagship stores down here are Costco and IKEA and now Walmart Supercentre. In addition you will also find Superstore, Bestbuy, Banana Republic Outlet and Gap Generation to name a few. As well there are numerous fast food and a few sit down restaurants. The good Lots of free parking One stop shopping for almost everything you need Easy access off of Deerfoot The not so good Can get crazy busy on the weekends ( I go early in the morning) Continually growing ( when will it stop? ) All in all, I much prefer Deerfoot Meadows to making numerous stops all over the city. If you havent already done so, head down there and see for yourself, the variety and convenience of shopping here. read more

See all

Yes Deerfoot Meadows has a lot to offer and there are great shops there. But whoever did the planning of this super center was obviously a novice. The twisting roads are horrible when it gets busy, making congestion there a huge problem in peak times. I have seen two car accidents there in the last year or so. Not enough pedestrian walk ways either. Also my biggest annoyance about the area is the lack of options for getting there. The only reasonable option is my car. Currently there is only 1 bus route that passes it and only comes every 30 min. Deerfoot Meadows also didn't see the need for bike racks, which is stupid because the bike path is so close. Deerfoot meadows is ace and has a lot to offer, but their planning committee is clearly high read more

Getting in and out of this mall is SO annoying. I want to punch the guy who thought it would be a good idea to make those lanes so narrow, if you own a larger truck, just dont try. And the future shop has some pretty bad service. Only reason its getting 3 stars is because of Cosco, Starbucks and PetLand. read more

Deerfoot Meadows is fairly close to my home, so I find that I frequent it quite often for groceries, or for any type of shopping where I need to get into some big box stores. Often on my circuit here is the WalMart Superstore, Real Canadian Superstore (and liquor store), and of course Five Guys Burger and Fries. I do occassionally swing by Ikea, Michaels and Marks Work Warehouse. Sometimes, A&W for a chocolate shake. What I value about this shopping center is its easy access from both Deerfoot and Glenmore. Also, I have miraculously never even came close to a parking lot accident in there. Either I'm getting smarter, or they have a layout that is not prone to people running into each other. When hitting the big box stores, it is frequently a choice whether to head to South Crossing or to Deerfoot Meadows. When either trip will do trick, Deerfoot Meadows is usually the first choice. I can simply zip in from Glenmore, and zip out on deerfoot. You just can't beat that access! 6/30 read more

Deerfoot Meadows is a good destination shopping centre. They have key stores like Ikea and Costco which drive most of the volume to the area. Notably, there is also a Michael's, Best Buy, Superstore, Walmart, and Wholesale Sports. Gap and Banana also have factory stores, but sadly they're not outlet stores. There's also a good selection of restaurants for all budgets so you can grab lunch while you get your errands done. read more

Deerfoot Meadows is one of Calgary's largest open-air shopping complexes. While it's big on home decor stores, it's also got a bit of everything for everyone! In terms of home decor stores, it's got Leons, The Brick, Home Evolution, Ashley Furniture Home Store, the Simmons Sleep Centre, The Bedroom Boutique, Kitchen & Patio, Linens 'n Things, Pier 1 Imports and Ikea, just to name a few. And in terms of having a little bit of everything for everyone, it's got Costco, Superstore, Eddie Bauer, Michaels, EB Games, Future Shop, Blacks, Best Buy, Lexus of Calgary, Mercedes-Benz, The Gap, H & R Block, and Walmart, again, just to name a few. Deerfoot Meadows is a one stop, no matter what you are looking for. Head on over and get lost in all its glory! read more

They have a large selections of stores plus ikea is super close only one in the city. I enjoy the ability to walk store to store so in case you can't find parking it's nice knowing you can simply walk. The layout and parking can be confusing but once you get use to it all is good. They have micheals , Best Buy , ikea , hair salons , food services you name it and across the street is Walmart all local shops are nearby which is awesome. I personally always come here for my shopping it can get very busy on weekends so go at an earlier time or later in the evening. The peak time for this area is around 1-5pm rush hour happens quickly. I also like the options of food within the area it makes it easy to choose. I wish more places were as nice as this location! read more

One of the best shopping locations in the city. Ikea, Costco, Superstore, Best Buy, Jysk, Future Shop, Sport Chek, the Calgary Auto Mall, a Walmart Supercentre, various home decor stores, and over a dozen restaurants, including McDonalds, Starbucks, and two outstanding burger locations in Fatburger and Five Guys. In terms of sprawl, it is a massive area, by far the biggest in Calgary, and it is still growing! The commute around can be unforgiving during busy periods (Christmastime is always pure chaos, a perfect storm of tight places, icy roads and mad drivers), but any place where you can get a new couch, groceries, rollerblades, a stack of Blu-rays, with a burger and a coffee to wash it all down in one stop is quite alright with me! read more

THE BEST BUY...... NEVER AGAIN!!!! DO NOT BUY ANYTHING HERE! Went in for a cell phone replacement...the rep was an idiot...took 2 1/2 hrs for an upgrade. Starts me on the $70 plan..which 2 hrs in ends up not being available. then all of a sudden the $70 plan is GONE and now its a $75 plan. Put me on a plan where I lose my long distance but could not show me what I was getting as his screen did not have the option. Could not transfer my numbers although it says WE WILL TRANSFER YOUR NUMBERS FOR FREE. I got a bill from Rogers saying I had $100 in long distance charges as I no longer HAD a plan for that!!! The bill also showed me $157 for the phone that should have been a ZERO phone. PLEASE AVOID these people... I have bought a mini ipad and was told it did not have certain features...had to buy extra cable...got home..find out it had feature and had to return the cable.... No one knows ANYTHING about ANYTHING they sell there...liars and scammers read more
