I honestly got the best souvenirs from this place compared to a typical souvenir shop. Kendall was awesome and very friendly. I wish this place was closer to me so I could stop by more often. Definitely will be back when I'm back in Canada!

I was in the area having lunch when I came across Junk in the Trunk, thrift store in Ogden. I…read morealways love walking into thrift stores and seeing what people have discarded, only to be rediscovered by someone else. As soon as you walk in you realize this isn't your average thrift store. The store is well laid out, organized and has that fantastic smell of used gear (but in a good way); it all brings back good memories of the past. They have a good assortment of records (yes vinyl is making a comeback). And they are dirt cheap; mostly costing less than a buck! I picked up two records and it cost me a toonie. How great is that!! The store shelves are organized in a great way, great friendly and inviting owners, wonderful jazz music was playing in the background, housewares, books, clothing, toys, electronics and even furniture were available to snap up. Be careful, walk into Junk in the Trunk and you'll be walking into a time-warp that you may not want to leave.

Once upon a time, my mom introduced me to a little place called Liquidation World. What's the draw?…read moreWell, you can find any array of just about anything at liquidation prices. I've gotten a couple of nice sets of sheets and pillowcases here for under $40. It's also a fun spot to grab stocking stuffers before Christmas, or find something that fits a low budget but generally still gets you something of quality. I was surprised to find that this location had a pretty good selection of home furnishings, clothing, paint supplies, cleaning supplies, and frozen and packaged foods. It was well organized, clean and the staff at the till were friendly and efficient.

I finally was able to go to Bianca amor in the NE. They got…read morevariety of things, you name it they got it...almost What I observed most was they got the damp trap...every other aisle displays it. They got doggie stuff that I always look out for. I am kind of leary about the toys though. They got some good overstock dog collars..it is oversize but for $5 it is super good quality too, sturdier and stronger than Kong brand. Kitchen stuff, omg...they got things that homecsense sells, $2 cheaper than the normal price. School supplies...lots if varieties. Good prices as well. I bought some pen since people walk off with it after narrowing... Clothing....a lot of clothing. Didn't even look, coz I got overwhelmed. Great brands though. Around the house, got saucers for 50cents, and its brand name, mismatch though...still great deal. House decors are reasonable priced. Also got toys for kids, car accessories, women's accessories, swords, watches, and knick knacks. We spent 2 hours in the store. They are open til 9pm. Its a warehouse setting, so don't expect it to be fancy which helps to jeep the price low as well. I gave it 4 stars since the price are reasonable, not everything is a deal so if you know your stuff, your good. Happy shopping if your in a diva on a dime!

Located right inside the mall, on the second level, this Dollar store is DA BOMB!…read more In fact, I"ll be honest: I didn't even know there were ANY dollar stores downtown Calgary. To find out that this store is not only downtown but located right next door to yet ANOTHER dollar store was like music to my ears. I needed a random couple of things and lucky for me, this dollar store carried every single thing I needed. I'm a HUGE fan of dollar stores, and I'm an even bigger fan of this dollar store because, yes, you guessed it, It's downtown! Happy lunch hour shopping y'all!

This dollar store is set right beside another one on the second floor of Scotia Centre. As I said…read morein my review of the other, each one has its strengths. I like this one for all the cotchkies and random things it has. It has a great selection of kids toys, which is perfect for gifts for friends kids but also for immature joke gifts for your friends. Nerf guns are hilariously fun. They have a decent selection of electronic equipment, like computer cords and some analogue TV stuff, blank CDS and storage items. It's no future shop, but if you know what you're looking for you can save a ton of money. They also have a bigger selection of bland gift-wares than the other, including candles and canada related items, which is perfect for secret santas and travelling abroad. I recommend taking the time to go through both to scope out exactly what it is that you want.

According to friends that live in other countries, Canada Costco's have a very low variety of products and although the snacks are nice I wish there were more options.

Instead of assisting me, they responded in a mocking manner, seemingly because they assumed I was a newcomer unfamiliar with the Canadian accent. This kind of behavior is unacceptable and reflects poorly on your store's customer service standards. I would like to request that your staff be properly trained to treat all customers with respect. I hope you will address this issue to ensure a more welcoming and professional environment for all shoppers. Sincerely,

Designer Depot seems to have taken the Winners concept, designer brand at depot prices, and applied…read moreto it their signs, but that's about where it ends. There's nothing designer here. Don't expect to find designer goods at marked down prices. You will only find brands you've never heard of before at fictionally marked down prices. "The comparable value on the on the price ticket or sign shows you the price another retailer charges or would likely charge for the same or comparable value item." So according to the sign, these items aren't necessarily sold anywhere else, nor have they ever been sold successfully by a business for more money. They have tags that make them look like they've been marked down but they never have been. Feels a bit deceptive, doesn't it? Further more, this store has had a "closing sale" for years now. How long do you get to run a going out of business sale, before that's just your business' regular price? They've recently brought in new winter stock that they merchandize on displays at the front like any other retail. Are you really having a going out of business sale when you're bringing new items every week? Seems like a scam, folks. Well, that and an excuse to have the place be a complete mess. That said... I bought an ugly Christmas sweater. If you can block out all of the sale nonsense, there's a chance you might find something for cheap that is worth the amount of money you will pay. Yes, the quality is cheap too, but it might be worth it. In this instance, $20 for a low quality Christmas sweater seemed worth it to me. So when you see row of suits on for $70 with a sign next to them that says "compare at $350," just know that those suits have never been sold for $350 anywhere - merely that somewhere out there, there's a store that sells $350 suits. Throw that large number away and look at the final price compared with the quality of the clothing and you still might find something worth wearing. But if you're in the market for inexpensive clothing above all else, I think you'd be better off shopping at Wal-Mart. At least then you know what you're getting.

Parking has been no problem whenever I've gone, though I tend to go in the evening. I find this store easy to navigate, and the racks tend to be organized/well looked after. The few times I've been here I've found it to have good selection and I have always been able to find my size in what I am wanting. The staff here seem helpful and the do offer to grab alternate sizes if something doesn't fit when you're trying it on. I find Gap Factory clothes tend to fit a bit different and have different cuts and material qualities than original Gap (I actually googled this and see that Gap Factory clothes are made specifically for Gap Factory only), and I find some things are better than others when shopping at Gap Factory.I tend to find myself heading to the factory store if I need some basic tee's for layering, jeans and cardigans.
