I would say Sobeys stores are generally nicer than Safeway, but prices at Sobeys can be ridiculous (at least from what I remember. haven't shopped there in a couple of years).

as for Family Foods, I guess "Safeway Select" and other Safeway private labels will be replaced with Sobeys "Compliments". lol
I like Family Foods because you can be in/out in 20 minutes if you want to, unlike the shopping fiasco of say, Superstore
