"Rexall is known for providing exceptional patient care and customer service with an ongoing dedication to caring for Canadians’ health, one person at a time"

I appreciate that they didn't even try and pretend Rexall is known for things like low prices or value to customers. I guess there is something that's a step too far for marketing BS after all.
I remember looking in Rexall once for dish soap and seeing it was something like, 50% off, but that still meant it was the same price as everywhere else, because Rexall's regular price for Palmolive was SEVEN DOLLARS PER BOTTLE. Presumably so it could always be on sale and people felt like they were getting a deal (assuming they never shopped literally anywhere else).

Canadian ownership is good news. I've been happy with Well.ca, but I hated the two Rexall stores I once used. The pharmacy section was always understaffed; once they gave me the wrong prescription drug (I only found out because my husband was taking the drug I was given and I recognized the pills!). SDM is heaven by comparison (but not heavenly enough, I'm about to switch to an independent pharmacy).
 
Overpriced gourmet cookies are a thing in this town - why don't I open up a shop? I'm so bored of the corporate bullshit job I have...

The Pink Cookie: Strawberry - White Balsamic

Taken today. Some things never change...

Fun anecdote for y'all.

When I was at work looking to buy a camera in 2015 I typed the address for what I thought was the Blacks website.

I had a highly reflective window and you could see everything that was on my screen.

I learned the hard way that it was blacks.ca not .com. Blacks . com is 1000% not photography.
