Each Costco you go to has local items so Canada of course had a lot more pastries and poutine. Yes, poutine in the food court and packs to make some at home. They also had mini chocolate croissants, nutella filled beignets....and I was surprised they still had the Kirkland hazelnut spread! Ugh, we've been wanting this forever since it disappeared in California. It's better than Nutella in our opinions. The layout was foreign of course, so we didn't explore a whole bunch but noticed that the wine/liquor area wasn't as large. The lines here weren't long and check out went fairly quickly. Overall it was a fairly calm Costco which is amazing and some regional specialties is always fun. Definitely check it out!

I know for a fact that the regular membership is $55. there is a second one that is in the hundreds but I don't know how exactly it is. I have to mention that Costco has an awesome return policy so if ever you are not satisfied with one of the product they are really flexible. I bought a dog food that my dog didn't like and it was easy for me to trade it. Now let's talk about the shopping so Costco has a little bit of everything from expensive jewelry's to electronics like laptops computers, cameras, tv. Honestly Costco has almost anything you could find. If there was a zombie a Apocalypse. This would be the place you would want to be. They offer a lot of services for example they have a garage, optometrist, photo center and also a pharmacy. Some of them even have gas station and the gas is always a few cents cheaper for some reason. Would definitely recommend the oil change They have a great price. Also if you need a passport picture. Great price! I often go to Costco for the fruits and vegetable. Not always the best price but definitely the freshest in the region. I would definitely recommend coming in with a friend and then splitting the food if you live alone. This is the perfect spot for all families.

They have plenty of your favorite items that have become staples and because this location is a little bit bigger they also stock some of the items you don't find at the other locations. The truth is the store is pretty much always busy but the lines tend to move well. The food court always has the items your looking for in stock and usually serve you pretty quickly too! Another added bonus is the gas station available to all Costco members that give you a pretty good savings!

A true paradise. So finding Mayrand was an interesting and clever treasure hunt. Back in the late 80's my dad would take us to a place in Winnipeg called Jensen brothers. This was pre-Costco and a true cash and carry. This was the type of place where you could get some smoking deals on large quantity items. Discovering Mayrand was an exciting and intoxicating display of goods in large quantity. Do you need a 14L pail of Ice cream? Probably the hell not! Unless you are having the whole neighbourhood over for a block party. Or do you need a whole leg of prosciutto? If your family is from Italy or you are having a feast you may need one! Okay folks, Mayrand has quantities for everyday shopping as well. Lots of items! Pretty much every department. They also have a huge restaurant and commercial business side catering to restaurants, bars and other food service outfits as well. I will be honest with my review. It's not all unicorns and gumdrops. I did buy a very cool sharp oyster knife and did search on Amazon after and found it for $20 less. Yes I was a tad pissed. I did want it ASAP though to shuck the two dozen oysters I just had purchased. So shop and understand your prices. Some items here are hella cheap. Think bulk quantity. If you love shopping at Costco you will love their different product assortment. It's just off the A25 on the cusp or Anjou/RDP. Oh yes also. Visa + MasterCard are available as methods of payment making it miles above and beyond better than a cash n carry

TL;DR/The Short Version: Hardware store in Place Alexis…read moreNihon. They have a small greenhouse selling indoor plants. The Long Version: I love Place Alexis Nihon because it has both a Winners AND a Marshalls, my favourite stores to shop at, lol. Well, my newest obsession is house plants, so on my on my most recent trip to Place Alexis Nihon, I had to check out this Canadian Tire to see their plant section. I was a bit surprised to see that they have a little temperature and humidity controlled greenhouse. I saw temperature and humidity gauges around and it felt warmer and more humid in there than regular indoor environments. All the other Canadian Tire stores I've been to, just have their plants in an area in their store, but not climate controlled to be different than the rest of the store. Anyway, it was fun poking around. Since I was on vacation and traveling by train, I was limited in what I could buy, so I didn't make any plant purchases, but they had really cute mini Swiss Cheese plants. I love plants with fenestrated leaves but they are mostly huge, but they had small ones here. As you all know, I'm an equal opportunity shopper, lol, I'll look at plants from big box stores as well as small plant boutiques. I would say that despite being a big box store, the plants here seem well cared for. The rest of the is similar to other Canadian Tire locations. Review #69 (2025)

Now you can, at the new Bulk Barn downtown! I've been to Bulk Barn a few times (mostly in Ontario actually), and this one is SPOTLESS. There's a person going around cleaning all the mess people make with a small vacum, and all the shelves, tanks and other containers are super clean. Even the honey tap is non-sticky! This place is also a heaven for bakers. They have sugar pearls, food coloring, candy sparkles, etc. of every color, and even special cake molds that you can rent at 1.99$ per day! They have a wide range of products, ranging from apple pie filling (!) to pet treats (e.g. dog biscuits). There's all kinds of flours, condiments, spices, health supplements, candies, pasta, and even some ethnic products, such as the classic Filipino Sunflower crackers. Prices are not always the cheapest, however - it's still good to compare between different shops. Bulk Barn might also not be for you if you usually go for brand products. But, it's great place to try if you want a specific volume of something, or just want to try, let's say, chia seeds for the first time but not sure if you'd like it... Note: Right now Valentine candies are 15% off!
