Hartco Income fund, the company that owns Compusmart, began shutting down its 15 Compusmart locations in May 2007. Originally, the South Edmonton Common location was not one of the first five to be shut down; however, it was quickly sold as well. As of August 2007, the location is currently occupied by Laptop Depot

[edit] Wal-Mart Supercentre

On November 7, 2007, the newest Wal-Mart Supercentre opened on the south end of South Edmonton Common, replacing the former retail location at Roper Road and 19 Avenue.

The Wal-Mart Supercentre has a full indoor garden centre, a fully serviced grocery store including meat, produce, bakery and floral. All former services such as McDonald's, optometrists, photo finishing and portrait studio are available at the new location, along with a Tim Hortons being located in the building, which brings a total of three Tim Hortons locations to South Edmonton Common.

Formerly, there was a regular Wal-Mart, and that is now being turned into T&T Supermarket.
