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.

#158 Yeah, I know…read more 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.

Terrible customer service by the fellow in charge on the night of December 27, 2018 at approx. 8:15…read morepm. I should have taken his name. The young man at the cash register was awesome! There was also a very helpful staff member in the aisle.I found a discrepancy between my calculation and the amount I was being charged but the person who seemed to be the evening manager was condescending and not at all willing to hear my complaint. I estimated the total to be around $23 and I was asked to pay $30 and change. He told me I didn't know how to add so I pulled out my calculator and as I added the items on the screen, he deleted it, but I was able to finish the calculation and showed it to him. He told me he was not willing to ring my purchase through again so I left. I hope he gets some lessons in customer service. Luckily there many other dollar stores in Calgary.

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.

It is obvious that effort goes in to make sure that stock is not junky or dirty. Staff and volunteers are very willing to help and prices are better than most second-hand stores. Fun to check out the on-going silent auction of artwork, jewelry, collectibles, etc. Furniture tends to sell very quickly because of the prices and value. Several stores and businesses donate to it as well as ordinary folk decluttering or downsizing. You can find everything from Ikea to antiques.

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!

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.

Whoever is doing the selection for what they carry is an obvious enthusiast. They carry all the newest and best things. They quickly restock games from the top lists of Board Game Geek. They make room for the biggest, most ridiculous games like Gloomhaven and other "big box" stuff. They're also priced extremely competitively. While they can't necessarily match Amazon for every price, they certainly do with most of their stuff. They have a lot of games Amazon Canada doesn't carry.
