What the Giant Tiger employee told you is about the same as what I have seen online said by Dollarama employees-the PPE onus is being placed on staff whenever they mention it to managers. Also Dollarama stores seem to have an issue about plexiglass being attached to counters -owners/managers don't want counters damaged. Game of passing the responsibility.
Yet Dollarama did give a $20000 donation to a Vancouver food bank. I'm sure employees were gnashing teeth at this when they cannot get PPE from store managers. Nickel and dime stuff in the thousands.
Would CRA deny store staff a non-refundable medical expense tax credit if staff bought their own PPE for work purposes and had receipts to support claims? Think this matter needs addressing. I'll tweet to CRA and see what reply is.2021-Bring on the sunshine, sweets & online shopping.

I went to the Bulk Barn today. I walked out of that place cleaner than when I went in. Those people are serious about the cleanliness of their store. Even though I wasn't allowed to touch anything, I still had to use hand sanitizer and wear disposable plastic gloves while walking around with my personal shopper. Each scoop that is used for your purchase is cleaned immediately after you are finished with your shopping, and each shopping cart is sanitized after as well. I have no hesitation whatsoever of going in to pick anything up from there. And you can now order online from them as well in certain locations. Kudos to the Bulk Barn
Have to add also, that all the girls there today were wearing gloves and all of them had face masks on, supplied by the company it looked likeLast edited by GoJays; Fri, Apr 17th, 2020 at 12:03 PM.

When I went on Friday morning shortly after opening, I was one of two people shopping so, no, it wasn't busy.
As for the prices, perhaps you should call them and ask.

T& T Supermarkets began temperature checks yesterday on everyone wanting to enter their stores.

I don't know how customers will know if the detectors are calibrated or those who had to travel a long way by transit will feel if they are declined entry but really need groceries (even T&T has grocery pickup delays).Last edited by Ciel; Tue, Apr 21st, 2020 at 10:15 AM.

Screening workers in this manner is one thing... screening the public is something altogether different.
Depending on where I just came from (the gym, or standing in line in the sun) my reading might be higher than average... or if one was trying to fool the IR reader, they could apply a cold compress before entering the store. My point is, the IR readers arent necessarily accurate for each person and is only really reading a surface temperature. Besides that I wouldnt let them stick anything in my ear or mouth (or other orifices for that matter) to get an accurate read.
And as was mentioned, it doesnt lend any credence to the chance that someone might be carrying the virus on them. It just means they dont have a fever.Last edited by bhlombardy; Wed, Apr 22nd, 2020 at 07:28 AM.

Well went by the same Shoppers Drug Mart today as I did last week that had a severe lack of proper social distancing at the checkouts but today before entering I looked in through the window.. they hadn't change a thing - so I turned around and left - I'll go take my business somewhere else thank you very much.
