Sobeys Todmorden

Be careful what you buy from the bakery. Recently bought a pack of 6 store made Calabrese buns and they went complete mold right at the expiry date. Usually takes way longer than this for mold to show. I am thinking they may have re-packed and re-labelled expired buns to avoid throwing them out. I have heard stores might start to implement tactics like this to reduce waste and keep costs down.

A bit long story ---
I needed to buy some top soil yesterday, specifically the Compliments product, which is very good quality and I have been purchasing in the last few years from Sobeys.
I first drove to the Danforth store, but it has got none. To not waste time, I called the Broadview store to check, and I was quite pleased to hear it has got the soil and price too.
I drove to the Broadview, but there were no Compliments top soils. I then found the young lady at Flowers, shared my experience and asked her help if she can find any.
She admitted right away that she was actually just talking to me on phone and she was very sorry that she mixed it up as she was eyeballing the soil piles in the parking lot from inside the store.
She sensed my disappointment immediately and showed an apparent & sincere desire to help the customer, thus proposed she will message the store manager, trying to get me another top-soil product at some discount. While no response after ~10 minutes, she tried to call the store manager, nor answered...
(further details omitted here...)
At the end, the twist of the story made such a warm impact in my (and my family) heart, we talked about during dinner, and we feel obliged to write it up here.
It must be the great customer-caring culture (haha, the fertile soil) at Sobeys on Broadview, that she is so honest, sincere, able to sympathize customer's sorrow, and do all she can to earn back the trust of the customer, while not breaking the rules.

Not such a great experience for me today. I’ve been a Sobeys customer since I’ve move to the neighbourhood and lately I’ve been disappointed by the quality of the meats. Today is an example: packaged today 4, best before the 6 and the color is that. Outside was looking good, nice pink/red color inside brown! That’s how you waist 9$, I put all in the garbage without even trying to cook it (don’t want to pay more for medical expenses).

Really went to store to access the wine store which turned out to be a separate entity but ended shopping in the sobeys. Store spacious and clean. Visited bakery deli and meat section. Was happy to find beef strips for me and beef liver for my dog. Happy for good dating on both bakery and meat will definitely visit store again.

A truly one stop shopping experience for me! What I enjoy the most is that it's a relaxing experience to go and shop here. I've never felt rushed, rarely if ever deal with unruly shoppers or crowding. The staff and patrons are usually so nice. The people at their stations are always so pleasant and ready to take my order or give me a moment to see what calls me. Some of my favourite amenities are:
- coin counting machine
- beautiful plants
- xmas trees in the winter, cozy garden center in the summer
- prepared hot and cold food
- stations with their own dedicated staff
- parking
- next to a bike share station

Service there is only for the Average & persons who don't care about their wallet.
Disabled folks-Stay away, folks struggling to get Great food , Well the Quality of foods indeed is Great.
So weighing the difference& the persons there who can make anyone feel welcome! Is their friendly & greetable cashers.

This is a smaller store that still has plenty of variety. Their prepared foods selections are excellent. They have all the varieties of chicken asking with roast beef and pulled pork.
They have a parking lot. The store is wheelchair accessible. And they even have a small garden centre.
