The very best interaction came when she acknowledged my low funds and asked me if I had a similar dress at home. I told her I did but I didn't know how to make it look 'sharp and with it.' She brought out earrings and a scarf and suggested they would work. I asked her if I could bring in the dress the next day and we could put them all together. She agreed!!! I brought them in. She put all the items together and it looked spectacular. Honestly I would never have thought they would work. They did!! Thank you Laurie and Great Finds!!

Ended up walking…read morearound the store for about 15 minutes browsing through everything, picked out a few items to try, but was never asked if I needed help or to start a change room. If the staff was busy I'd understand! But they were mostly just chatting with each other, and helped other customers around me. I felt invisible :( When I went to the register to purchase a shirt (no luck with dresses, sad), no one was there. Waited at the empty register for way too long before deciding to hang up the shirt and leave. I'm not normally one to write reviews but this experience made me feel pretty bad and I left quite sad. Clothing stores shouldn't leave that effect on you!

I was recently at Plaza at Polo Park. I had just checked out the Winners-HomeSense combo store on…read morethe second floor. Next door was this Urban Behavior store. I decided to check it out. This store sits where the old Canad Inns Stadium (formerly Winnipeg Stadium) was. It's weird seeing this building and a huge P.F. Chang's nearby. This area is vast, and needs either more stores or housing, or both. My original intent was to find a washroom, hoping that any of these three stores had a washroom. I came close with Urban Behavior. There were washrooms in the back right of the store. However, if was blocked off with a sign that said that these washrooms were unavailable. I'm taking one star off for blocking off the washrooms. It seems ridiculous to search for a washroom elsewhere, especially when it's cold outside and you need to go. I briefly looked at the merchandise. I noticed that it had Forever 21 tops that were heavily reduced in price. It felt like an outlet, as prices were decent. There were Ugg knockoffs. Naturally, I didn't find any in my size because I have big feet for a woman. I liked the sweatpants and sweatshirts. They looked cozy and comfy. The accessories were practical and cute. I saw everything from toques to earmuffs. This store had a decent selection of graphic t-shirts for both men and women. I was impressed. I rarely go into an Urban Behavior store. It was nice to drop by this one to check out the discounts. Maybe someday, it'll open up the washrooms to the public. (493)

Staff are super friendly and kind. Just an update for those who like gifts that matter They are selling the cutest wooden houses in support of mental health . All the proceeds go the maker which is really amazing. They have a map of Manitoba and come with a little star so you can place your town on the map. For 15-20 dollars they are a steal and will look super cute in my kitchen. The staff said you can email the maker for custom provinces. I think they would make a great gift for a great cause.

[In all fairness, I can't really review this place since I didn't shop there.... but my boyfriend…read moregave me the most amazing present from here so I just wanted to show some love] Here's a tip for all the guys: It's the little things that count. Yes, you can show up in a flashy car or buy rounds of drinks for my friends or take me to $300 dinners... but what I'll remember in 10 years... what will make me want to stay around for 10 years, are the little things. You can make me feel like I hung the moon by remembering a special moment. My S.O did this with a trinket from Out of the Blue. It was a beautiful necklace with a sand dollar pendant. It was so special that the moment I opened it, it triggered a proustian memory and I was back to that beach in Africa. back to 2007 when he was Obama-ing it up meeting long lost relatives in the motherland and I just happened to be staying at his birth father's house while I was volunteering in the village. You know... the usualboy meets girl story. I left for Kenya and got trapped in the makings of a civil war. Passport stolen, city locked down, the sound of sirens and the smell of burning filled the air. This man, this guy who knew me not even in a biblical sense for just a few weeks took a 16 hour bus ride across 2 countries to make sure I was ok. We ended up hiding away at his cousin's beach house on a empty strip of sand in a remote village while he fed me pineapples in the day and at night I would wake up crying from memories of men with machetes burning down churches full of children. All he could do was tell me it was going to be ok. It was our morning ritual to make the only footsteps on the beach and collect sand dollars whose bodies wash up on the shore after their death. Every little sea creature skeleton wiped away a fearful memory until there were no more night mares... and after awhile they weren't marine corpses anymore but reminders that though life can be horrid, heartbreaking, gruesome, unfair, dire, terrifying, it still has the capacity to be beautiful and birth love. When I opened that sweet little cardboard box, all those feelings came flooding back to me and that necklace isn't just a necklace, but a visual reminder of a memory of the heart.

There was lots of parking. I backed into a spot and walked in. What stands out is a decent number of Kipling bags. I didn't need any, but they had smaller ones at this store. Finding them made me happy. The housewares section was also enjoyable to browse. I liked everything from silicone ice cube trays, to glass drinkware. The shoe department was great. The selection of women's size 11 shoes made me happy. I liked the sneakers. In the men's section, it had Airwalk sneakers. I hadn't seen those in ages! Before I left, I had to check out the phone accessories section. I like getting PopSockets at reasonable prices. This store had some styles that I had never seen before. I also saw my first MagSafe charger at any Winners store. It was exciting to me spotting a technology unicorn. I enjoyed browsing around. I'd return again when I'm in the area. Maybe I'll find something that I end up purchasing next time. (288)
