'It's got to make some kind of change': Boycott of Loblaws-owned stores begins

'It's got to make some kind of change': Boycott of Loblaws-owned stores begins

For the next month, thousands of shoppers from across the country plan to get their groceries anywhere other than Loblaws-owned stores. The move is an attempt to get the box chain to lower its prices, as frustration grows over the high price of food.

For the next month, thousands of shoppers from across the country plan to get their groceries anywhere other than Loblaws-owned stores (which include the Superstore, No Frills, and Shoppers Drug Mart). The move is an attempt to get the box chain to lower its prices, as frustration grows over the high price of food.

The idea started as an online push on Reddit and has gained over 60,000 members.

While the true number of people participating in the boycott isn’t known, the page is filled with shoppers claiming they won’t be visiting Loblaws stores any time soon. Support for the idea appears to be growing each day.

“I’m all for it,” says June Melanson, who was just finishing some shopping.

“If people can’t afford the stuff they have to do something right? So if they are all coming together, especially as a collective, you know it’s got to make some kind of change.”

“I certainly will be looking at maybe if I can get my groceries at other places to support it,” says Brenda Keenan.

“Just so Loblaws gets the message that how can Giant Tiger charge $1.47 for celery and they want $5.97.”
