I needed some shampoo and conditioner while visiting my parents and I was relying on Shoppers being open on Victoria day. The store was open but due to some stupid bi-law in Barrie, Shoppers could only have 7500 sq ft of retail space open. Instead of blocking off the electronics section (for example), they blocked off the make-up, shampoo and body wash sections! Thanks shoppers... I am sure cottagers will be happy to know they can pick up some games for their Wii in lieu of soap!

The current owner has endeavoured to make improvements in the whole system of filling prescriptions and dispensing medications in a timely manner. My husband and I suffer from chronic pain and so, a reliable drug store is essential for us. Several months ago, we almost went to a competitor for our prescription needs but decided to give the new owner of the pharmacy a chance to improve the service. We are glad we did because we are noticing a good effort on the pharmacy's part regarding our prescriptions getting filled much more promptly and without confusion or hassle. Keep up the good work!

They don't answer their phone. Save yourself the aggravation and go somewhere where they give customers some respect. Will never go back.

My rating is 3.5 stars…read more After work last Thursday, I wanted to pick up some hand cream for my mom. She had cracked skin on one of her hands for at least a week. The hand cream that she was using wasn't healing a thing. I found one brand that seemed promising while doing some research online. The site said that it was available at this particular Shoppers Drug Mart. The store was conveniently on my way home from work. Then again, I cut across most of the GTA, so I pass by a ton of stores! This store is in a plaza. There seemed to be a Food Basics or some green-painted grocery store that has closed down. Shoppers Drug Mart is in the corner further down. The parking area can be a bit chaotic. It's an older plaza and the lanes are more narrow than what I'm used to in suburbia. This store has been here for a while. It has everything that you'd expect it to have, including a grocery aisle. I walked every aisle and could not find the hand cream that I was looking for, which was disappointing. However, there was a Gold Bond one that was on sale. It has been approved by the Canadian Diabetes Society. It has proven results. It was also on sale. I bought it! I dropped the cream off at my parents' place. My mom said that she would try the hand cream out immediately. This morning, I spoke to my mom. She said that three hours later, she noticed a huge difference. She no longer has cracked hands. Nice! She asked me whether she could pay me back. Hearing her say that this product works is all that I wanted. The lone cashier at this store was friendly and made sure that each customer was okay. She helped out a senior ahead of me. I liked the care that she showed and the help that she gave. I'd come back here again when I'm in the area. (157)

This shopper's has always had a magic spell on me. I don't know why, but it doesn't matter what I…read moream looking for, if I go shopping for something specific...I always start at this shoppers. Doesn't matter what it is, it is like a right of passage that on any shopping quest, I MUST first step through it's sacred sliding doors into the soft scents that can only be the cosmetics section (rereading that I think I may need some help......) In all honesty, I do think this is a great retail environment and not only because I seem to always need what shoppers has to offer. They really have it right on the retail environment. The layout is great, the visibility is amazing (it's always the brightest store) and the staff is friendly enough. It has everything and the mix of retail and pharmacy is great...what else are you going to do while waiting for the pharmacist to mix all the magical potions and call on the gods to create that coffee syrup (ok I'm not crazy but sometimes I do wonder why you have to wait for your prescription when the doctor wrote down the exact amount and the type...is it the handwriting they are figuring out...it's got to be so we have to shop around right???)? In any event, I am possessive about this shoppers and glad that I got to review it first. If you're ever in the area, stop by, because I swear this specific shoppers has...everything......

I immediately went into planning mode to send her off on a cheerful note. Setting up where we were going to eat for her farewell was easy. I had bought the perfect greeting card while I was in the Twin Cities. She is an avid reader. I had pooled funds from our department towards an Indigo gift card. I needed to get the gift card. I was flying back to Toronto from Minneapolis. Had my flight been on time, it would have arrived at 7 pm in Mississauga. By the time I fetched my car from my workplace's parking lot and headed to the nearest Indigo, I would have made it before it closed at 9 pm. My flight was delayed by 1.5 hours. I tossed out plan. Thanks, Air Canada! I always have at least one backup plan. You truly do, especially when Air Canada is a part of it. Plan B was to hit the nearest Shoppers Drug Mart (SDM) and get a gift card. From my workplace, I am fortunate that I have three SDM stores to choose from. However, considering that it was nearly 10 pm, the choice was obvious. I drove over to this one in Rockwood Mall. Why do I love this store already? It's open till midnight. My usual SDM that I frequent closes a lot earlier. I had no problem heading over here. It's roughly a five-minute drive from my workplace. There was plenty of parking available and it was fairly busy on a Tuesday evening. I backed into a parking spot and walked into the store. This store is designed like most SDMs. You walk in and the beauty boutique is right in front of you. I didn't need to focus on my beauty after having travelled back. Okay, maybe I did and I chose not to. I needed a gift card. Luckily, I found the gift cards immediately. They tend to be by the greeting cards. I picked up one and then browsed around the store a bit. I was happy to see Squishmallows. There weren't a lot of them. However, they were so cute that it didn't matter. I looked at vitamins, shampoo, and the food aisles. This store has a nice selection of bread. Maybe the folks in this neighbourhood love carbs. The bread varieties were definitely better than what I get at my local SDM. I lined up to pay. There was only one cashier. Another female staffer came over and said that I could use the self-checkout kiosk. I said that I had a gift card. Could I activate it at a kiosk? She said yes. Cool! In the past, I was always told that a cashier could only specify the amount on a gift card and activate it. This woman was awesome. She stepped me through everything. I loaded $150 on the card and paid with a debit card. Done! I thanked the nice woman. She was great. I headed to my car and drove to a hotel nearby work. It was so late that I opted to say in Mississauga. It would make my commute to the office the next day easier. The gift card worked without a hitch. My friend was ecstatic to get it. All ends that ends well, as the saying goes. I appreciate that this SDM was open. It played a huge part of my planning my friend's parting gift. I'd return when I'm back in the area and need something at this store. The hours and staff are awesome. (365)

I don't require a pharmacy on a regular basis yet the pharmacist remembered my name after only a couple of visits. Impressive.

I don't have a drug plan and was even offered a discount on the already low dispensing fee. I get my annual flu shot here and they are always kind and gentle. Prescription are filled quickly and I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else, especially to the larger chain establishments. If you are in the Brampton area I would highly recommend this pharmacy.
