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.

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.

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. Give yourself an hour or so and have some cash with no plan because you will impulse buy.

Whoever is buying for this dollar store is doing a really great job. I don't know how they can be a small section in a mall and still seem to have everything here. The staff are really helpful here too. I think this is the first time I've ever been in a dollar store and actually had someone offer to help me find something. I'm glad they did or I would have been getting lost in here for hours. They're located just inside the south entrance to the mall, making it super easy to use this store as a stand alone, not needing to waste all the time wandering through North Hill. Not the biggest dollar store in town, but in my opinion, the best in the area.

The…read moreservice, the layout, the presentation and the organization normally leave a lot to be desired but since the pricing makes up for it, we 're easily appeased. But imagine how heavenly a dollar store could be if it actually HAD all the elements of organization, layout and presentation, along with the discounted pricing! Well, no need to imagine it any longer. Ironically, when I walked in, 'Imagine' by the Beatles was playing, and this should have been my first clue that this Dollar Store experience was going to be unlike any other I've ever had. Music in a dollar store??!? THE BEATLES in a dollar store?!?! Fer Real?!?! But it just kept getting better! The entire feel of the store is different. It's layout is circular/bubble-like in that it's not square and boring and everything is organized according to categories and sections (ie: Sewing Notions, Hardware, Body Shoppe, Hair accessories, Stationary, etc.). The store, unlike traditional dollar stores, is inviting and it makes you forget where you're shopping! This dollar store was a breath of fresh air and I'm officially a fan! If you haven't been yet, check it out. The track list alone is worth the visit!

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.

Several stores and businesses donate to it as well as ordinary folk decluttering or downsizing. You can find everything from Ikea to antiques.

As previous commenters have stated, they load these with egg, cheese, bacon, and sausage, they are so very tasty, and always hot, almost too hot to eat right away. On a cold morning they also do double duty as hand warmers, until one's appetite overpowers ones need to keep their digits frost free. I've never managed to be in the area during lunchtime, but I'm very much looking forward to trying the mid-day repast that others have mentioned being served here.
