Très bon service

Had to pick up mail today (Feb, 1, 2025) at around 3:00-4:30pm and entered the store after walking about 2 miles from my house since I don't have a car, suddenly some lady was hollering at me going: "Sir, sir!!! You have to leave your bag at customer service. That's why this is here." she exclaimed whilst pointing to a yellow sign that I had not even seen saying that "Bags must be left at customer service." clearly implying that I was stupid and that somehow I would've seen the sign automatically when walking into the store whilst I headed directly to the post office. The reality is I have really poor vision and happen to be almost blind in my peripheral vision along with my right eye. Reluctantly I let customer service have my bag as I went to go get my mail, after walking so far though I decided that instead of buying groceries at sobey's which is making me go out of my way to run around the store when I have to walk nearly 5 miles in -21c or colder in the first place to get there and back home, I'd pick up my mail and leave.

If it's that big of a problem where customers are stealing that I have to leave my 800$ load-bearing backpack with customer service, how can I expect my extremely expensive backpack to be safe with customer service. I can't. So instead of buying groceries from Sobey's, from now on I'll just go somewhere closer that allows me to bring my backpack with me when I'm shopping and that doesn't have ableist employees. I walk with a cane in the first place, so it should be obvious that I have physical disabilities just by looking at me from the start.
Also why in particular am I being picked on when there are tons of women who walk into stores with their giant purses that are free to run around the store as much as they want without having to hand their purses in to customer service. You'd think that a bag which would be easier to just throw stuff in and steal stuff with would be accounted for, but no. Instead they target the disabled male walking around with a cane, that has a backpack that can't even be opened without taking it off, undoing multiple securing buckles and zipping open as it's a clamshell zipped bag.
Quite frankly I'm not going to trust any of you with a backpack that costs almost an entire paycheck for what one of your employees makes in a week, and I'm not going to support a store that openly makes their customers feel treated as they were lesser people. It's not worth my time, money and effort at that point to shop at Sobeys anymore, so in this case I'm recommending against shopping at this store entirely unless they change their rules, get better security and hire employees that do not belittle their customers based on their disabilities, what they are wearing or who they are.

Know your prices. Place is,close, but may be worth the short 5-10 minute drive to another place to save money, esp with them damn tariffs coming.

Been shopping here for years. Sobeys has a small town feel with many of the regular amenities of a larger grocery chain.
Staff are generally very helpful.
