I was greeted by Wonder Woman (it was Halloween) and she was very friendly and helpful. She let me browse the store without pressure (which I really appreciate because some stores can put a lot of pressure on you to purchase). Other than Christmas decorations, Jilly's a bit of everything! There is clothing in the back (it's very expensive though - so expensive I almost choked on my gum). They also have numerous home decor items, candles, bath and soap products, they have a lot of stuff. The sale section towards the back of the store drew me in immediately (it had purses). I really liked Jilly's. I will be going back to shop soon!

The perfect place to shop for the perfect gift!!! With Mother's Day just around the corner, this…read morecould be your one stop shop. Jaillis Boutique is packed full of goodies from jewelry, to candles, to clothing, and so much more! There is even a little kids section. You can also find Kate Spade stationary accessories here. This place is seriously jam packed! I took pictures, and when I looked at them after, I saw things in the picture I didn't notice in the store! You can, and probably should, spend at least an hour here! I was in there for about 20 minutes which is seriously a long time for me. I can browse a store and be out in 5 minutes. But this place was like a candy store for me :) My favourite sections in the store were the Farmhouse Fresh skin care line (get the Whoopie Cream lotion), the gurgle pots, and the Volcano candles. Oh! And the scarves! Such a huge selection of scarves here! So many great spring patterns and colours. This boutique has something for every budget. You can pick up gifts from $20 and up. What a great place to come for hostess gifts! And in addition, the girl working at the shop was super friendly and I could tell she loved working there. For real, I think this is as good as it gets for a local boutique in SW Edmonton. 5 stars all around! *Applause*

Mother Earth Essentials is a store that sells bath and skincare products, as well as candles and…read moreteas. Their products are their own brand, and are made in Canada. They are an indigenous-owned business. I received their Cedar Balsam candle as a gift from my sister-in-law and it smells divine! It's a natural woody scent that makes me feel close to nature. It's made of soy wax, is non-GMO and the wick is made of unbleached cotton. The candle was part of a personally curated gift box that contained my sister-in-law's "Favourite Things." Well, guess what? Mother Earth Essentials' Cedar Balsam candle is now one of MY favourite things too, lol.

I'm constantly looking for new options to reduce the amount of chemicals in my personal care…read moreproducts (soaps, shampoo, creams/lotions, etc.) So this store was a fantastic find! You can drive by & easily miss it. Next time, pull in the parking lot (free parking) and take a look. It's a 100% Aboriginal owned & operated small business using locally sourced ingredients and essence from sacred plants. They have a really unique and important mission statement which sets them apart from other similar businesses. As for their products, I loved pretty much everything in their store. You can view their entire collection online. I particularly love their soaps. They have a wide range that appeals to many people. I love the Wild Mint & Sage. They also sell a line of healing teas, but I looked mostly at the skin products. And all their prices are completely competitive (if not a bit cheaper) than other companies selling similar products. And as far as I could see, they really are 100% natural. Companies like LUSH still use chemicals like Sodium-Laureth-Sulfate which are known to disrupt hormones & possibly cause cancer. Everything I looked at here at Mother Earth Essentials looked completely natural. ...exactly what I was looking for!

I purchased a Santevia water filter tank listed as "on sale." It was only after I paid that the…read moreinvoice noted the item was "cracked" and "damaged". This is a major safety risk for a water filtration system, yet my original receipt made no mention of this damage. When I immediately contacted the owner, Wanda, to cancel, she refused. She claimed the order had "already shipped" and could not be stopped. She tried to justify selling broken safety equipment by claiming the damage was disclosed, but that text was buried far down the page, well below the "Add to Cart" button where it was intentionally difficult to see. Wanda eventually agreed to refund the item but refused to refund the shipping cost ($28.35), claiming it was too late because the item had shipped. This was a lie. The tracking number confirmed the package never left their facility; the status remained "Label Created" for a week. Most egregiously, Wanda admitted in a later email that she did void the label and received a full refund from Canada Post. She explicitly stated she was retaining my shipping funds to cover "the time it took" to process the order. She essentially admitted to pocketing money for a service (Freight) she never rendered and for which she was fully reimbursed. To make matters worse, they have already re-listed the cracked, unsafe tank on their website, likely hoping the next buyer won't notice. Do not trust this business.

I found that they could have shut down during Covid but they stayed open to help and support the community. Right on, this is a business i love to support.

There are literally thousands of items for sale that would rival Homesense and all your other favorite home decor and gift shops. Many of the vendors are local.

At the back there is a cafe. Barista on duty. Muffins and baked yummies for sale. Small seating area. The deck out front has some nice seating. We probably could have sat outside on a sunny day like today. The yard is nicely decorated as well. Pumpkins and scarecrows.... There is plenty of parking.

A good friend sent a sympathy bouquet to my mother. The flowers were delivered to the wrong house…read more Luckily the homeowner delivered them himself. Delivery service is very poor. The floral bouquet lasted for less than four days. When a phone call was made to the store regarding the delivery and poor quality of flowers there was no action or apologies made. It was stated that the delivery service is the only one in the city and is contracted out. As for the flowers, four days was the normal length of life for a bouquet. The attitude of the shop was unacceptable and very concerning considering they are in the service business. If I could rate the shop as a zero, I would.

The lady on the other end confirmed she received it and asked when I wanted it to be delivered, I said the following morning (Thursday). I thought it was strange that we never heard anything back from our sister and called the company. The said they tried calling the recipient numerous times to confirm the delivery but couldn't get a hold of her. I said she never got a phone call. The delivery was supposed to go to her office on Broadmoor Blvd. They said they didn't know it was a business or where Broadmoor was as their an Edmonton based company and said the flowers would be delivered on Monday. I said that wasn't very good when a sympathy bouquet would be delivered a week later and asked for a refund. They refunded the money and that was that. Needless to say, I'm very disappointed in the customer service. If they couldn't get a hold of the recipient, they should have contacted me. Unfortunately there was no apology or anything said or done to reclaim the business. I do not think I will be using this company again or will recommend them to anyone. Stick with Growers Direct!
