When I lived in NDG, I used to do regular grocery shopping at the Provigo on Cavendish and Sherbrooke, and if they didn't have what I was looking for, there is the Loblaws one block over on St-Jacques.

However, I also really liked shopping at Akahvan (also on Sherbrooke).

Lastly, there is also EcollegeY for excellent local organic produce, but it might be a bit pricy sometimes.

I'm interested in this Provigo on Monkland. I miss so much about Provigo... mostly that it USED to be called "Superstore" and there USED to be a familysize/bulk section. Ahh.. the Maritimes.
Enough clowning around. Let's get red wagons for the bikes and buy our produce at the market.

Looks like we can take the 105 to a big Provigo on Sherbrooke Ouest (past the vet) and there's an even bigger Loblaws/Super C just around the corner from that. If we get too big a load, we could get stuff delivered back.

Sounds like and adventure in N.D.G! What fun! Let's load up our fridge and our bellies!

Um....do you find it weired that we're chatting about this in a community on the internet when you're in the other room?

I used to work at the Provigo on Sherbrooke and Cavendish. It's just a 105 bus ride away and it's quite large, with a good selection. You should give it a go. If you find it's not to your liking, there is also a Super C on the corner of Cavendish and St Jacques - walking distance from the Provigo.

There's also a Super C at the Atwater Market, which is just 2 metro stops away. The Provigo on Monkland is priced much the same as the Metro on Sherbrooke.

I tend to shop at the Provigo at the corner of Sherbrooke and Cavendish - and pay about $5 to get it delivered - this option is available from Monday to Saturday 9:00 to 17:00 as I recall.

Ah, now that would make the busride back a lil more manageable. Thanks!
