I have to admit, I actually love finding random housewares at Dollarama. I usually go to the location that's in Royal City centre, but my boyfriend, daughter and I happened to be in the neighbourhood one night after getting dinner, the plan was to get a few toys for my daughter with money her grandma had sent for her. All was going nicely until the security guy who was going off shift approached us in the aisles, and started telling my boyfriend that we shouldn't put stuff underneath the stroller (we hadn't, all we had down there was a Wonder Woman doll and our strollers raincover). My boyfriend told him we hadn't, and the guy continues to tell us that he "told the cashiers not to worry about us because we had a child, so we were ok with him." We were very confused by this, and he goes on to make us feel as if we were making others nervous that we were going to shoplift and basically asked him not to talk to us because it was making us feel agitated. We asked to talk to his manager, and he said it was him. My partner tried to walk away, and the guy grabbed his arm! And when my bf shrugged him off, he accused him of pushing him. The security guy put his hands on him for no reason at all, when it was obvious he was ending his shift because he was in his regular clothes now. We told him we were feeling harassed and I felt really uncomfortable so I put my items back. As we told the other security guard that the cashiers called, the man who was harassing us, quickly clocked out and left the store. The cashiers took our info, and told us that they would speak to the manager about what had happened. I've never felt so unwelcome for literally doing nothing. As I waited outside the location with my daughter while my partner got the info, a customer that was leaving who had witnessed what had happened, told me that he has seen stuff like this happen a lot. I really hope whomever this employee was, something was done. I've never had anything except very pleasant encounters at any other location nearby. This was not favourable, especially since it happened on front of our two year old child. read more
