    Mine is about 5 mins walking or 3 mins driving lol! Just a small store with basics. Have two other stores close in both directions within 8 mins as well.

    This is fun.

    I pass 2 SDMs on my way to work. The closest is 0.62 km. There is one store 1.1 km away and is the only SDM store in the neighbourhood that sells food so I don't go to the others too often, even though I pass them every day. I honestly only go to those little ones for cookies, chocolates and the odd vitamin or shampoo, because they are so small and don't have much

    8.6km, but it's straight country driving and no traffic lights or traffic so I'm in the store in 6 minutes. It's a great store and they know me, however doesn't have a full beauty boutique so I have a few other regulars as well. Depending on family member activities etc. I may go to one more one year and another the next.

    I'm at Shoppers 1-4 times a week, although 1-2x is the norm.

    My Shoppers (Ajax, Ont) in order of proximity:

    1.0km - 10 min walk (Harwood South)
    3.1km - 5 min drive (Salem & Kingston)
    4.0km - 7 min drive (Westney & Kingston)

    First preference is always Harwood South, easiest to get to either by walking or by car and normally the best staff, selection and coupon policies. However, the Westney & Kingston location beat them out one time with an offer on Robax, they had a bonus pack and I had gotten a raincheck on the regular pack at my local one, used it at that location and got a much better deal.

    I have 2 shoppers close from me, one is 5 minutes and another one is 8 minutes for opposite direction.

    As for price check, is that only me that found even 2 stores that I hit, some items' prices can vary unless they are on sale indicated on flyer. I noticed this when I was going to do MIR.

    The closest SDM of mine is 12 mins walk. They are not bad from my experience in the past.

    However, they don't accept Internet coupons anymore so I missed some good deals.

    i asked why and cashier told me that they are losing $ because they do't get reimbursed from manufacturer. Well ... I stop bothering ...

    According to google maps, my closest one is 300m! However, I usually drive to the one that is 3.3 km from home, as the staff is great, and they have a Beauty Boutique. I am there at least once a week.

    P.S. There is another SDM 1.4 km from my home.

    According to google maps its 750m if I was driving. I walk so its more like 500m by going thru the back gate, walking thru a mall property and jaywalking. The next 4 stores are 1km, 2km, 3km, and 4km away. There are 20 stores in the city and 4 Home Health Care. Each store is different and caters to the area. I had to travel by 2 buses to get my laptop.
    Main shopping is 1x a month and Friday for best deals. Closest store has the post office.

    Closest SDM 50km one way. Oh boy if I were only closer would max out points even more. Usually hit the store 3-4x a month.

    2 are 15 mins walk
    1 is 10 mins walk
    1 is 25 mins walk

    so 4 SDM's quite close. Also they are all in big shopping malls or plazas with grocery stores right next to them . so if I go there, I also visit the corresponding grocery store for deals or specials. so I don't waste my time and trip. Almost always I visit the corresponding grocery store if I am there at the SDM.

    1 has Freshco right next to it , 1 has Metro right next to it, 1 has Sobeys right next to it and 1 has Loblaws across the street 2 mins walk.

    1 is North, 1 is South, 1 is East and 1 is South-West , so pretty much in 4 SDM's in 4 different directions, so doesn't matter which way I am going or coming home from, generally there is one on the way close to me. so don't really have to go out of the way

    2 are big ones with electronics, milk, photo lab, frozen/frozen products like pizza, ice cream, veggies etc.
    2 are small ones with no milk, photo lab, electronics or refrigerated frozen stuff..mostly carry non perishable snacks and stuff like that.

    We have 3 stores. The closest is being renovated so hoping more food choice So! It's 2 min drive.
    second one is new bigger store but don't care for the staff there so very rarely go there 5 mins drive.
    my favourite store is 10 min drive across town as they have the best customer service and so friendly!
    i always go to their galas for look good feel good and shop 1-2 times a week
