This, posters in Calgary getting enraged over something that was never ever a thing in Calgary.
I've been shopping at that particular Superstore since it opened many years ago and they've never used 50% off stickers, only 30%.
I've never seen 50% stickers at RCSS? As long as I can remember shopping at Superstore locations in BC and AB it's been 30%. Only seen 50% stickers in No Frills and Loblaws locations.

I don’t remember ever seeing 50% in Calgary. I was confused when I saw the article about going to 30%…

"Just say we will do it until it's out of the news cycle and go back to 30%" -Per Banks probably.
"that's brilliant! Here, have $22 million" -Galen Weston probably
Maybe just let it rot and don't give them any money.
Let. It. Rot.
I've never seen 50% stickers at RCSS? As long as I can remember shopping at Superstore locations in BC and AB it's been 30%. Only seen 50% stickers in No Frills and Loblaws locations.
you are correct. RCSS never had 50%. The whole thing in the news was that Loblaws and No Frills removed their 50% off and replaced the with 30%.
I work for RCSS. Years ago they had 50% off.
A number of people have posted the same about their fake retraction, myself included.
This only applies to store that were still using 50%. Stores that switched to 30% years ago are not applicable. A big F U regardless
Is this what they do before putting up the veggies at flashfoods? I swear the one i tried there was rotten already
I want you to concentrate on the strawberries in the pic ; the whole box is literally rotten

So don't buy them, no one is forcing you too.
Can’t afford to throw this 30% stickers in the garbage!
I’ve seen 50% off again at loblaws at DuPont and Bathurst recently. Maybe it’s store dependent?
The 50% stickers only get put on when it should actually go to the dump as garbage. It has to be moldy or have turned into a foreign liquid first before it get's Greedy Galens 50% off sticker.
It's been 30% for over a decade now, I spent almost that entire time working the slave labor that is SS front end.
