I am a fan of Gap. I am proud to say that I have been the same size for eight years. I used to not…read morebe able to fit into anything at this store when its largest size was a woman's 16. Thankfully, I got my weight down and removed this size restriction. Of course. Gap decided to offer larger sizes afterwards, which offers choices to consumers. This Gap Factory Store is a part of Quinte Mall, but it's not in the mall. It's a part of the box store section where you have to walk outside. I came here after having lunch for part two of my shopping spree. Years ago, button-fly jeans were in. When I lived in Winnipeg, I got my first pair of button-fly jeans. I moved around a fair amount that I don't know what happened to them. Weird. It's still a mystery to me. Anyway, there were button-fly jeans that were 50% off. I tried on a pair and loved how they fitted. I also have signed up for e-mail promotions. I got an extra $10 off them just for showing the e-mail. Go, me! There are decent discounts in this store. I liked how it was so easy to shop around, as it wasn't overly busy on a late Sunday afternoon. The man at the cashout area was great. I paid with a credit card, got my jeggings in a small bag, and happily made my way out. This store is next to an LCBO. There was plenty of parking around the area. (351)

This GAP Factory Store offers true discounts. I bought 2 T-shirts for less than CDN$20 each…read more There were a good selection of sizes in the women section. The store was clean and neat. It was sparsely staff the day I visited, but it was a weekday, so it could be the reason. What brought the rating down to 3 stars was the boring styles. There were a lot of styles, they were just all so boring. If you are looking for a casual yet classic looks, this store will be okay. Otherwise, ya know.

I do miss shopping at Eddie Bauer. I didn't buy much at regular locations in malls. Rather, I loved…read morethe Eddie Bauer outlet that used to be off Weston Road in Vaughan. The deals were fantastic! Once it closed down, I have ceased shopping at Eddie Bauer. Luckily, there are Eddie Bauer outlets in Vaughan Mills and Toronto Premium Outlets. I just haven't been as loyal a shopper as I used to be. I saw this store and decided to check out the merchandise. I liked a pair of cargo shorts and decided to try them on. They were on sale. They didn't fit great. Thank goodness for change rooms. I put them back and called it good. No staff member came over to say hi. It wasn't all that busy. Perhaps they were waking up on a Sunday morning. (341)

The first store that I visited at this mall was Old Navy. I walked in and loved how cheerful it was. I found a sales rack where all jeans were $9.99. I managed to find a pair of jeans that I liked and headed to the change room section. The man there was enthusiastic and led me to an open change room. My jeans fit perfectly. Mine! This store felt like an outlet. There was so much merchandise on sale. I was good and didn't get an entire wardrobe. I was content with my pair of jeans. I went to line up and pay for my item. There was only one woman staffed and she was taking quite some time to help the woman customer out. The nice guy who worked the change room came over and helped with me with my item. It was nice dealing with him again. I had a great experience shopping here. It's a good Old Navy to drop by. (340)

Quinte Mall is Belleville's largest mall. I spent a good chunk of my day shopping there on Civic…read moreHoliday last weekend. This mall was open on a holiday, on a Sunday, at 10 am. It's a bit insane, until you put all the puzzle pieces together. I realized that Belleville is home to Shorelines Casino. When you have a casino in town, chances are that you want to entice visitors to shop in the area. I will say that I had a good experience dishing out my dough at this mall. There is ample parking. I parked fairly close to the main entrance and walked in. I was pleased that it has an Old Navy, a Shoppers Drug Mart, EB Games, two music stores (Sam and Sunrise), Eddie Bauer, and more. It doesn't have the feel of an upscale mall, which I appreciate. The mix of stores is nice and I sometimes felt that I was at an outlet. As an example, I scored a pair of jeans at Old Navy for $9.99. They were of great quality and fit nicely. It has a huge food court with eateries that you would expect, such as A&W, Bourbon St. Grill, Mr. Sub, and more. What threw me off was Toro. It had Japanese characters in its sign. I thought it was teriyaki or sushi. Nope, it was an Italian place. Huh? If you are looking for a restaurant to have lunch or dinner at, East Side Mario's is here. It looked busy when I left this mall. I wanted to get a late lunch somewhere else that wasn't a chain. Although the directory has Chapters, GAP Factory Store, LCBO, and more, they are actually not connected to the rest of the mall when you are inside it, walking around. You have to duck outside to shop at these various places. It's a weird setup. My lunch was really an intermission. I then drove back and had round two of shopping until I dropped. The GAP Factory Store is fabulous. For a while, I have been looking for button-fly jeans. I never had them when the trend was there in my high school years. I scored a pair of them that was heavily discounted. Next to the GAP is LCBO. I ended up getting a vodka soda and an orange creamsi-ale that were nicely chilled for my consumption. You can easily walk the entire mall in a day. I loved being there on a holiday Sunday. I rarely stroll an entire mall these days, as I typically end up broke and sad. However, I still had money after this excursion and was a happy tourist. It's a decent mall. (339)

I was surprised at the size of this mall - it was much bigger than anticipated! The only odd thing…read morein my opinion is that you have to access the Chapters (and thereby the Starbucks) from outside the mall. We had wandered in and wandered around looking for it. I think there were some other shops also only accessible from outside. Like so many modern malls, this one has its fair share of cell phone providers in kiosks down the centre aisles. You've got your work cut out for you, doing your research on these! The big draw to this mall is the big Sears store, but there were all kinds of others to choose from: Ladies' fashions (Danier, Ardene, le Chateau, etc) and shoe stores like Payless Shoes, and SoftMoc. What a great mall!! A refreshing change from the malls at home.
