Yeah, I know. It's called Dollarama which implies things that cost a $ or multiples of a $.
However, based on the current economy, not many items besides bland everyday greeting cards are a $ (but it is the thought that counts, right?).
That being said, there are many products between a $.50 and 3$ that are a good buy.
I personally like the smoky coloured Coca-Cola glasses and other coloured glassware from the kitchen department, micro-usb cables (when they are not out), hangars for clothes (somehow no matter many I buy, they just vanish in the closet like socks in a dryer), and office supplies (good place for pens and paper) including extension cords, small tools, and power bars.
I forgot to mention one of the better places to get last minute party supplies!
Cleanup on aisle 3, wait, the micro-fiber towels are not there but a couple of aisles over (huge selection in automotive). And since I need to clean up other messes, good place for Band-Aids, q-tips, toothpaste (Arm & Hammer sensitive), and other items of a hygienic nature.
I like this location since it has lots o parking even on the weekend and it is larger than most including the one near Sunridge Mall and the one on Denman Street in Vancouver's West End.
I usually troll once a week to see what new products they have. It is my escape; sad, I know.
The friendliness and service can be hit or mess but this is Canada so this is expected. Add to that, about 25% of the time, the product is the same price or cheaper elsewhere. read more
