Good - keep it up!
I personally would like to hear Bob Loblaw’s take on the situation…
Perhaps he could make a post in his law blog.
Low blow Bob Loblaw
Good to see from Canadians.
Wish it was seeing more success where I work. Then again, I have batshit coworkers calling the boycott “Dumb”, that Loblaws “Is the cheapest place”, and think a successful boycott would “Cost jobs” (we’re fucking union no it won’t), so maybe it is being effective and I just hear the negativity from coworkers able to buy stock shares because of working here out of boredom rather than need
Lol. Out of curiosity, are you hearing this from management, or from staff on the floor?
If prices are so high that a store inspires a unified national boycott, jobs loss (if it happens) can actually be blamed directly on the prices!
Staff on floor. Who are also unionized. It’s like, shut up you elderly bag you clearly are not doing this because you have to and as such can afford the stock buy in program and not need to choose between eating and rent
At least some other coworkers are sane and agree with the boycott
Lol, loblaws is cheapest. Your coworkers need to check out other grocers. We have some Asian and Indian grocers, and prices on produce , and staple items (potatoes, rice, lentils, etc) is always half of what our Superstore charges.
I mean, that’s fine if you live in a place that has those kinds of amenities. In some places, Loblaws is cheapest.
Canada has many food deserts.
I do all my product sampling in Loblaws, then go elsewhere to buy it if it tastes good.
I do all my shoplifting and self-checkout fraud there. SUPER affordable.
Even with those precautions, I wouldn’t characterize it as SUPER affordable. At least closer to a fair trade
Tip: When the carts lock up, stomp on the bottom part between the back wheels to make it do a wheelie. Locks are only on the front
Yes! Every month should be “steal (business) from Loblaws” month.
“We don’t have a contract with our customers. They can choose to shop elsewhere tomorrow if they don’t like the offer that we’re giving,” he said.
Interesting choice of words. I spend over $500 a shopping trip, and am a PC Express member (which means I have a contract with them).
I haven’t been shopping with them already for a few weeks because of some issues I experienced at my local store. I don’t blame the store either; I directly blame management at head office who have been methodically stripping power away from local managers over the past four years.
Fuck Loblaws they left my country 30 years ago and didn’t demolish the building
I will not buy from loblaws anymore. The small stores is where it’s at.
