You got two options here. So which one are you going to choose? hmmmm?

    which actually pay their employees a living wage

    This isn’t my experience with Foodland or IGA - they generally only employ teenagers so they can pay them the under 18 rates.

      We must be going to different stores on different days.

      All the Local IGAs in my area employ single mums and more mature staff members. The only young employees I see are family members of the owners.

      The big IGA in a nearby town employs the same demographics of staff members; they even have a professional Butcher on staff (and they have excellent value cuts of meat) (I used to deliver for a butcher when I was younger and have seen some dodgy butchers and some overpriced dodgy butchers and some excellent butchers.)
