Everyone here is lovely, but Karen (usually staffing Canada Post) is particularly wonderful. She noticed I was shipping often and helped me order bulk packaging at a great discount. SHIP AND SHOP HERE!

Peters drugs was fantastic , my families favourite local business! Unfortunately, I dont go anymore due to an an employee named Karen. Shes extremely rude and I was appalled at the way I was spoken to and the way I over heard her loudly speaking to other employees. Even if Karen is a manager at the drug store or not i think the way she barks at customers and colleagues is highly unprofessional and disgusting behaviour.
