Review from Jack G.
Edmonton, AB
When I used to work downtown I visited this Shoppers Drug Mart a lot. I usually would browse the magazines if I needed to kill time.
Shoppers is good for a lot more than that though. They have most of your household needs like toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant, a pharmacy and much much more. This particular shoppers offers more than the average one. I was surprised when I saw a food section.
My favorite thing about it is they sell Slurpee's! During my breaks I would always rush here to get myself a coke Slurpee. So delicious. -
Review from Michael F.
Decent place to purchase your necessary beauty items, but be prepared to pay an extra 5 cents for shopping bags. They charge extra for those.
I usually buy my headache medicine in Canada because they are more potent than the U.S.
They used to be cheaper, but the currency exchange is not too good for Americans.
It's more expensive to buy stuff in Canada now if you are using US Dollars.
Not their fault, so I have to shop more carefully when I'm out of town.
I usually scope the discounted section and purchase the ones that I really need.
In a nutshell, I'd buy things here only if it's an emergency and necessary.Listed in: Traveling to Canada

Review from Jeanette B.

Is it possible for two Shoppers Drug Mart stores to coexist in only a one-minute walk one another? The answer is yes. This used to be a Value Drug Mart, and I was puzzled, when it changed to a Shoppers Drug Mart, since there is another one right next door in the adjoining mall.
This Shoppers Drug Mart though is different though. It's just like a regular Shoppers with a nice beauty department and pharmacy, but there is also quite a large food section here. You'll find fresh bread, packaged foods, many aisles of snacks, and a large selection of frozen foods. I like that they offer many organic and gluten-free items for reasonable prices.
This Shoppers especially comes in handy, when I'm going to a movie downtown. I come here and buy lots of goodies to stuff my purse with, so I don't have to buy anything at the theatre.
Even though there is another Shoppers Drug Mart lurking nearby, this store still seems to be bustling with people. -
Review from Maria F.
The only Shoppers Drug Mart I visit is the one located in City Centre. Inside this Shoppers' location there is a beauty boutique where you can buy hard to find brands such as Nuxe and Kibio. If it wasn't for the beauty boutique, I would visit Shoppers Drug Mart even less often than I do now, because in reality it is just an overpriced drug store. I did price comparison and discovered that Shoppers charges more for such mundane things as toothpaste, hair color and razors than stores like London Drugs and Rexall Pharmacy. The only thing that positively distinguishes Shoppers from other drug stores is that here you can find cosmetic brands not sold at other places. That and the fact that several Shoppers Drug Marts in the city are open 24 hours a day which is convenient in case of emergencies.
