    Charlottetown's "other" mall is a pretty depressing place, sad to say. There are lots of empty…read morestores, empty spaces, and a mostly unhappy looking group of people -- store workers and customers -- inside. The mall is located at a very busy intersection yet apparently not a bunch of passersby come in. The food court is rather gloomy and doesn't encourage stopping for a bite or a drink. We did have a nice experience at the Telus mobile phone store, but we found very little of interest among the usual mall assortment open stores. Bottom line: if you have to go to a mall here, the downtown Confederation Mall is better, which is sort of like saying that getting food poisoning is better than getting the flu. Oh well...

    I really don't like going to this mall, unless I'm going to Winners or the Cineplex which are…read moreaccessible from outside anyway. It's a huge complex, but feels empty inside. You can walk around in the mall for seemingly ages and it feels really empty for such a large place. The stores seem widely interspersed, and few of them offer anything of value... And when they do the prices tend to be high. The food court sucks. It looks like nothing has changed there since the 80s and has an anemic assortment of dining options.. Personally I wouldn't eat anything there. I ordered a bubble tea at the Korean place once, and it was pretty gross. The parking lot is a bit of a mess, a bunch of accidents just waiting to happen. To sum it up, I wouldn't really recommend going there unless one of the stores carries something you specifically need.

    This is the best thrift shop in the world! Ok, so maybe not the world-- but I only say that because…read moreI can't prove it. I can't go anywhere near Port Elgin without checking it out. Usually when people ask me,"Where did you get that?!" The answer is PEDVAC! Then I explain where it is, what it's about and why everyone should make the trip. From my first purchase in 1995: three amazing cardigans, two of which I still wear, to my fuzzy boudoir chair and smoke-stained porthole mirror, to my Betsey Johnson lace shrug, to my copies of the amazing boardgames Ratrace and Personal Preferences to the like-new 1983 GWG denim jacket I scored for my boyfriend and my signed copy of The Zucchini Cookbook. These are a tiny selection of the amazing finds from PEDVAC. Since it's a thrift store, everything is incredibly inexpensive and the money goes to help the community. It's rare to leave with an armload of treasures for more than $5. You can fill a bag of books for $1, and there are bag days where you can fill a bag of clothes for $1 as well! Before you leave PEDVAC, make sure to the craft corner, especially the mittens made of old sweaters! The ladies in the community sew them, and I couldn't recommend them higher! I've worn mine through two winters, even dropping them a few times and they still look brand new! They're durable and they're the warmest mitts I've ever owned! In addition to the wonderful volunteers and the always friendly fellow shoppers, there's usually a wonderful brown and white dog hanging out in the store too. She's wonderful if a little timid. She's a great addition to the best thrift store in the world. At least the best one I've ever been to. I send most of my stuff there when I'm done with it too. What goes around comes around! PEDVAC is a treasure trove in the truest sense of the word.
