I love Dollar Tree. I noticed this store a few weeks ago while getting some groceries from Zehrs…read morenext door and flagged it. Last Saturday, my original intent was to hit Zehrs to get a few items. I needed white vinegar and tomatoes. I was surprised to see something like thirty people in a lineup to get into the store. A woman with her two kids took one look at the lineup and headed back to their car, saying, "Let's go to Shoppers Drug Mart to get milk." Since this pandemic, more folks are hitting convenience-type stores where basics, such as milk and bread, are offered. The idea is to get basic food staples that you need without hitting a full-blown grocery store. I wasn't in a rush, and decided to walk over and join the Zehrs lineup. However, the end of this lineup was a few steps from Dollar Tree. My mindset shifted, as I could do with a can of diced tomatoes and a bottle of white vinegar instead. I ditched Zehrs for Dollar Tree. Since lockdown 3.0 started, I have not been in a dollar store. It's kind of sad to see aisles blocked off because they aren't considered essential items. I am frankly unclear about the delineation between essential and non-essential items when I visit these stores. I have seen plants available for purchase, but not socks. Are plants deemed essential because you get the carbon dioxide-oxygen exchange between humans and plants, so we all thrive and continue to breathe? I'm thinking that if it's 6°C and you don't have any socks that they are considered essential to keep you warm as a human. What do I know, though? I'm confused. I ended up getting a small jug of white vinegar. I also got a large can of diced tomatoes. There weren't any plain ones. Instead, I got ones with herbs and spices. I used them to make stuffed peppers and the diced tomatoes worked out well. I am always happy with the selection of dry herbs and spices at Dollar Tree. The selection here was great. I didn't need any, but looking at everything while I was in that aisle felt normal. There were markers, pens, and stationery that were available. I didn't mind looking at them. I needed Crayola markers with fine tips, which were geared towards adults. It was sad to recently learn that pretty much all my markers at home were dead. I also saw a six-colour llama pen that I liked a lot. I found Alokozay teas at this store. I am looking forward to giving the strawberry a try. I have been drinking the blackcurrant variety for years, which is one of my favourite brands. I am also a huge fan of all things blackcurrant, which explains my love for Ribena. I went to line up. There was a woman buying cases of glassware. The woman cashing her out suggested that I try the other one where the man just came back from a break. I headed over there and he was pleasant. I paid for my items with a debit card and thanked him. I brought a bag, so I didn't splurge getting a plastic one. There is plenty of parking in front of Dollar Tree in this plaza. I was parked closer to the Zehrs main entrance, so I took a nice walk to my car, looking at the crazy lineup that still existed there at Zehrs. My guess is that I would have still been in the lineup had I not dropped by Dollar Tree. I'd come back to this Dollar Tree for nonperishable goods and llama pens. Here's hoping that when this lockdown is lifted and things are safe that I can check out the blocked-off aisles. (194)

This means that when the big sales are on, I often come out of my way to get to this store, as it is almost always the last to run out of the deeply discounted items. However, its location far away from the main commercial areas of Uptown Waterloo and Downtown Kitchener means that it is somewhat inconvenient to travel there.

Pretty dresses! Lovely tops! Beautiful jewellery! What's not to LOVE about Andie's?…read more When my sister invited me for a day of shopping in Kitchener, I wasn't expecting much. Coming from Toronto, I'm spoiled with a spectacular shopping scene and the whole idea of a small town with a few chain stores kept looping around in my head. But I love my sister, and I'm not one to turn down shopping, so I obliged. King Street actually has a few neat shops, but my favourite by far was Andie's. A small, independently owned boutique, Andie's is a haven of girly dresses. Some are slightly business, some more casual and some for fancy parties...all in all they have a great selection and carry a variety of brands. If I had to describe the overall style I would say it's classy, but definitely fun. Andie's also has shirts, pants, skirts, and jewellery (although the dresses are the main focus). Decor of the store is gorgeous! Beautiful accent wall at the back, with patterned wallpaper...I'm not sure what the print is called, but I want it for my house now. Change rooms also have that boutique feel, and make you feel like a socialite. Service here is fantastic too! The sales girls are friendly, but not pushy; they're helpful, but they give you space. They also know their stuff when it comes to fashion, and it genuinely seems that they love what they do. I mentioned to my sis that one of the girls seemed particularly helpful, and she whispered to me "oh, that's Andie." That's right, the owner of the store works out on the floor and sees that everything runs smoothly. And that just gives me the warm fuzzies. Prices are a little high, but in this case you're getting every penny's worth in quality and style. My overall rating? Andie's -- it's worth the drive to Kitchener.
