Eh... by comparison, I'd say the closest relative to OV Urban Fare in terms of size, product mix and layout is the Nesters' at Woodwards, and I never found it much cheaper to shop there.
OWFG wanted the exclusivity of the OV location post-Olympics and they figured the concept would work given the lack of adjacent competition (nearest grocery stores being several blocks' walk).
It works okay as a store for doing fill-in shop (i.e. "oh shoot, we're out of milk") but beyond that it's prohibitive for most, even those living in the area, as a weekly shop destination. I found Nesters' to be the same in that regard.
