Essentials
This Shoppers Drug Mart (located right beside me) is one of the only drug marts that offers a very good selection of groceries and fresh food in the city (vegetables, fruits, bakery, pasta, frozen isle, etc.). Shoppers Drug Mart also has a pharmacy, Canada Post, cleaning products, toys for kids and personal care items. Regular prices are a bit higher than a regular grocery store but weekly sales make the prices cheaper than the regular grocery store!

Sightseeing
Rated as one of the top ten sites to see in Toronto by all of my Airbnb guests (over 60+ groups). A definite must see whilst in Toronto. Take the time to open the doors that look closed as they lead to cool art galleries, a museum on the history of the distillery, cool stores, Mill Street Brew Pub Tour, etc.
