My wife and I are in the middle of a move and our current address does not match what is on our Id. When my wife went earlier this was no problem she showed I'd to prove who she was.

I had all my teeth removed so was really struggling to even talk and even tried to tell her this in response to her comment. This worker did not care and passed me the contract told me read it and return with what's required. I have been a member for many years and never been threader or talked anything close to this. I did say what an ass when leaving

I set for the the summer now in the plant department. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly with speedy service through the tills.

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.

Over-sized Chinese Dragon mask ring? Rock belt buckle? Mini donut pans? All things I have discovered in this magical warehouse at discounted prices. One man's crap is another man's treasure amirite? From make-up to housewares, Bianca Amor's has you covered. And for the hard-to-gift sword collector? There's an entire section devoted to that.

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.

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.

The dates and date chocolates were purchased last year, the other goodies just before daughter returned home from this recent stay. All purchases were gifted to us as soon as she was back home. We now know why the granddaughter enjoys to shop at this store, and wished her Mom to see it. And 'wow' to the selections made to come home to our place!! The dates and date chocolates have long since been enjoyed. But we savoured each piece as a "special treat", and attempted to make all of them last for as long as we could -- not an easy task! And will do the same with the new arrivals brought our way yesterday morning. Of cousre, all received a good try after lunch and dinner!! And like the dates, were so flavourful and tasty. We have received some fine gifts from the daughter's Calgary trips. Our big thanks to her, and to granddaughter for introducing her to such a fine store.

After weeks of calling to see when my resizing would be completed, they finally told me that they LOST my wedding rings!!! My rings have never been found. They did remake me a wedding set, with a value of 1000.00 more than my appraisal, but it does not compensate for the fact that my original rings have been LOST. $1000.00 difference does not cover the fact that my rings are now gone forever. I would never recommend this business.

The chair is perfect, and Travis is fantastic and we're delighted. Ron Calgary

I've been looking for a pair for months and this is the first pair I have ever found and I lucked out by them being my size! I've already took them out for a spin and they're perfect, just need to switch the indoor wheels for outdoor wheels and I'm all set! They had a wide variety of booths with everything you could ever imagine including a booth full of video games and my personal favourite Pyrex! Definitely worth the drive from Calgary and will be stopping here more in the future! The staff was super friendly and kind!
