Nice wooden toys, cool lego, a really sweet collection of cuddly puppets in friendly fabrics.

Randolph's not only have a few of the game, but we're selling them for $20, and when I called to inquire about inventory, they even put one aside under my name for ease of pickup. The staff were very friendly and when I asked about a potential motorcycle themed game or similar that they might have to fit another gift idea, they were immediately willing to go through their inventory shelf by shelf in an attempt to locate one for me.

Archambault, is the largest music retailer in the province of Quebec, Canada, as well as a major…read moreretailer of books, DVDs, periodicals, musical instruments, sheet music, games, toys and gift ideas. Its e-commerce site, www.archambault.ca, is the largest French-language retail site in North America. Archambault currently operates 14 stores in Quebec. This particular store is just next to the Marche Jean Talon. It is large, well lit, roomy and very well stocked with books, gifts, music etc. Archambault was founded in 1896 by Edmond Archambault, who had originally wanted to open a sheet music store. In partnership with J.A. Hurteau, a major retailer of pianos, instruments and music accessories, Mr. Archambault opened his first store on the corner of Saint Denis and Sainte Catherine Streets in Montreal. In 1919, Edmond Archambault became the store's sole owner, and in 1930, he decided to move to the corner of Berri and Sainte Catherine Streets, where he built a seven-storey building, which he dubbed the "House of the Future" and served as the home of Archambault Group's main office. I love the variety of books you can get reference, fun, children's, educational, etc. The section for games is also large and well laid out with board games, electronic ones, card ones, etc. It's just a pleasure to walk around and to get something for yourself or a friend.

It's just that my preferences are kind of focussed now and they are selling to a higher audience. So good for tenn! They also have a lot of board and card games. Friendly staff and good location. You msg find yourself reconsidering a few items based on cost but that's more an industry thing than anything to do with the shop.

She had cute little felt vegetables to "cut" or shop with, dolls, beautifully handpainted hair barrettes.... I picked up some non-detergent detergent Eucalan for my wool (apparently it has lanolin so don't use it on anything else as it will attract grime) and will report back. I used to use some strong perfume-y detergent but it is now making me nauseous.

I scored a 1000 piece puzzle for 4$!! The first floor is mainly kitchen stuff, stationary, CDS/DVDS, and the hottest books of the moment. The second floor is adult books. The third floor is toys and kids books. I don't read much in French, so I often skip the second floor. But the third floor is so fascinating. They have so many puzzles and new board games, I love browsing. They have a tiny section of YA books in english, it will mostly be the popular titles. I love it here. It's so cozy and inviting. I wish they had some small areas where you could sit and enjoy basking in the glory of their products, but I probably wouldn't buy anything if that was the case. It is next to a Starbucks so once you've bought something, you can go grab a coffee and start reading!

Although I hate to call it a bookstore, as it sells so much more: The main level has toys, kitchen stuff, journals and stationery and cards, school notepads and office/workspace stuff, calendars, gourmet teas and chocolates and reading/book accessories. There were some small glass plates here that I regret not getting as gifts; at $6 each, they easily liked like they cost four times at amount. And there were some funky glass cheese platters as well that I regret not buying. Dang, I'm going to have to go back..... The upper two levels are comprised of French books for sale. This is a great store. Prepare to spend time here browsing.

Mise à jour de mon dernier avis (3 ans plus tard) :…read more Je tiens à ajouter une nouvelle expérience. Aujourd'hui, je me suis présenté au magasin pour participer à un locals de Riftbound. Un employé m'a informé que je ne pouvais pas rester jouer et m'a remboursé. Il m'a dit que c'était en lien avec l'avis négatif que j'avais laissé il y a 3 ans. Je trouve ça très décevant d'être encore pénalisé 3 ans plus tard pour avoir simplement partagé une mauvaise expérience. Au lieu d'essayer de s'améliorer et de bâtir une communauté de TCGs, j'ai l'impression que Chez Geeks préfère écarter les clients qui ne vont pas dans leur sens. Pour être nuancé : le prize pool offert par le magasin est excellent, probablement un des meilleurs que j'ai vus. Mais soyez conscients de l'attitude du magasin face aux avis qui ne leur plaisent pas. Entre mon expérience passée (mauvaise attitude du patron, communication difficile et frais de shipping trop élevés) et celle d'aujourd'hui, je recommande aux clients de bien réfléchir avant d'encourager Chez Geeks. Je suis honnêtement déçu de la situation. C'était une bonne occasion de me faire changer d'avis sur le magasin, mais ça confirme mon point encore plus. Edit : étant admins du groupe Riftbound Montréal, je me suis fait ban de ce groupe ayant plus de 2000 personnes de la communauté Montrealaise. C'est ridicule de m'exclure de cette communauté à cause de leur rancune https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1DmHHZwGuB/?mibextid=wwXIfr

The…read moreinside was packed with every category of toy you could imagine and the owners have obviously been sourcing toys far and wide for sometime. Favorites were the big selection of girls play tea sets, the wide selection of plastic foods, fruits and veg, laid out as if you were in a farmers market, the selection of wooden ride-on toys and the jack in the box selection (always a hit with babies). We would have returned to buy but on the way out I noticed that the lady behind the counter was looking at something closely on her computer screen as we walked up from the back of the store. As I got closer I saw that it was a surveillance camera watching our every move with zoom!. The store wasn't that big!! and everywhere was visible from the cash. We must have been the only customers on this wet and windy morning and she couldn't be bothered to come out from behind her security "control centre." Forget it, with that attitude we won't be going back.
