It's funny how I have never reviewed this Dollar Tree. It's time to fix this issue!…read more I tend to get my hair cut at the Great Clips next door. Afterwards, I typically pop by Dollar Tree to browse and shop. I was in the area the other day and decided to drop by. I prefer Dollar Tree to Dollarama. I like the selection and everything is $1.25. At the latter, there are items that even go for $4.25. What's the point of being a dollar store if you are paying dollars for a single item? I suppose that we can blame our Canadian dollar competing with the American one when it comes to Dollarama pricing. Anyway, this Dollar Tree is the only one in Markham. I love the selection of items, from sardines, to dumplings and chicken in cans. I also love the noodle section. The seasonal section is awesome. Easter is nearly here. You can get scented Easter bunny plush toys and a ton of chocolate items. Nice! Staff are friendly. I managed to witness two staff members training a new one. They were much younger than the new hire, but were incredibly supportive of her progress. I still miss the awesomeness of Dollar Tree in the States. Perhaps one day, the frozen food section will magically appear in Canadian stores. In the meantime, I am pleased to get decent items that are cheap and of good quality here. (132)

Love the selection at this Dollartree. Bountiful, for sure. More selection in snacks, stationary,…read morebeauty, crafts, kids, decor, kitchen supplies. I dropped a star because I was over charged there, on a marked down product and the employee was adamant he didn't, but basic math showed he's implacable attitude was baseless. Watch your bill totals here, is all that I am saying. But they do have nice amenities, the toilets were clean and spotless. Much appreciated.

On Saturday, I needed to get a couple of items at a Shoppers Drug Mart (SDM). I decided to visit this one. There are two SDM stores that are a few blocks away from each other. Both are on Highway 7. This one is on the south side. The other one that I frequent more often is on the north side. The parking lot looks small. However, there are more spots towards the west side of the building. I had no problem parking next to a snowbank. I then walked into the store. This store is open till midnight. It's decent. The woman at the beauty boutique said hi. I reciprocated, which brought out a huge smile on her face. There was a lot of Easter merchandise. I saw everything from chocolate Lindt bunnies, to Squishmallows plushies. I grabbed a couple of six-pack cases of Diet Coke. It was cheaper here than any other store. I also got some vitamins. There was a sale, so I was pleased. I did some perusing. This store has a mini grocery store. I saw bagged avocados and cut-up fruit that was discounted. I should visit this store more often, as most SDMs in Markham don't have fresh produce. The checkout area is different. There's one counter for a human to help cash out your purchases. I didn't see any humans. Instead, there are self-checkout kiosks. I used one. It was straightforward. I scanned my PC Optimum card, my items, and then paid with a credit card. Done! This store has a post office. It's located in the back right corner of the store by the frozen foods. I enjoyed dropping by. If you do need a lemon and it's 11 pm, come here. It's the only SDM in which you can get a whole lemon. (114)

I used to spend a fair amount of time in this part of Markham well over a decade ago. This plaza…read morehas a Jiffy Lube that I often took my first car that I ever owned, a Pontiac Grand Am, for oil changes and more. This plaza has my local ServiceOntario, where I have posed for my driver's licence mugshot over the years. This plaza also has a Dollarama that has been here for as long as I can remember. I decided to pay it a visit last Wednesday evening. On Thursday, my department had a virtual lunch. It was my suggestion to hijack our regular weekly meeting to ban chatting about work and have lunch with the team virtually. I managed to convince my colleagues to order takeout. It worked! Being on video (I'm not a fan in general, but I'm okay sacrificing my face for lunch and chatting about non-work-related stuff for an hour), I felt that I needed a Santa hat to get into the festive spirit. I knew that I could rely on Dollarama for my needs. It did not fail. Let's talk about parking. There are lots of parking spots in this plaza. Some of them are extremely roomy, like the one that I was parked at. I swung my driver's side door wide open and had another foot between my door and the car next to me. Yay! Dollar stores are deemed essential during this pandemic and remain open. The prime reason is that they offer food and drinks. Naturally, there were a number of customers shopping when I was there. I immediately looked for the Christmas section. I found it easily! There were lots of Santa hats to choose from. There was the traditional one that I ultimately got. One had two white braids going down either side. Another had antlers. I loved the elf hat with huge ears. The problem is that it didn't accommodate my huge head. Luckily, the traditional one did for a whopping $1.25. The aisles are long in this store. They stretch from where the cashout area is at the front to the very back before you hit the employee area. So, everyone seemed to ignore the arrows on the floor in each aisle. If you were at at aisle where you saw an item, but it meant walking down another aisle and back up to take a closer look at it, most chose to ignore what you should do in favour of convenience. This store is a fascinating place to observe how humans behave. If I didn't have errands to run, I would have found a chair and watched people for a good half an hour. Between Dollarama and Dollar Tree, I like the latter more before everything is the same price. Dollarama varies its prices based on the type of item. So, is it truly a dollar store by definition? Maybe it should change its name to Dollars-rama instead. I do enjoy getting candy here. I got two white chocolate KitKat bars and they were delicious and cheap. The snacks section is pretty impressive. This store has garlic naan, which I don't often see at Dollarama. Perhaps this area has more South Asian folks that this store is being accommodative. It's cool. I lined up to pay for my items. There were two cashiers working that evening. The woman behind me was standing way too close to me. My staring at her and the marker on the floor did not do a thing. She was oblivious, as was the woman behind her standing inches away. It's not an issue with the store, but with people who don't get it. Anyway, I got a nice male cashier who helped get me on my way. My items cost me $6.66. I joked that perhaps I should get another item. He laughed. I used my debit card and all was great. I didn't need a bag and wished him a good evening as I headed to my car. It's a decent Dollarama. Other than folks not physically distancing as well as they should in the store, I'd return because the selection is perfect for my needs. (448)

The other Dollarama on Highway 7 which is a lot bigger than the nearby location Hwy 7 and Kennedy…read more If you want a more comfortable visit, I like going to this location more as the aisles are longer and you can feel more space in between aisles when browsing. Sadly, even though the store is bigger, it still lacked a lot of the popular items as I guess the items are sold out just as quick which means there is a lot of traffic but still have a good amount of variety. I don't remember seeing self checkouts there. Perhaps it is not needed but I feel they need to add it to make the checkout faster and also not having to wait for a staff to show up to check people out. This Dollarama is conveniently located in a plaza with lots of restaurants and even a Service Ontario, and even a No Frills, at next door plaza which means can kill a few birds with one stone when needing to run many errands :) The parking lot is huge and there is sufficient parking. Transit Viva Purple is easily accessible to get there.
