Yea, it's a chain but a good one. Especially if you like to read. Which I usually end up doing here…read morebecause I sure can't buy all these Canuck-only mags here. They've got a good selection of newspapers from all over Canada and some hot spots in the US. Mainly New York. You can spend some decent time here browsing and perusing the magazine selection and I've never been booted out once. Ah, those Canadians are so nice! Decent candy selection but I'm still upset they got rid of Mack's Toffee from their lineup. So I end up getting some variety of Nestle bars instead. Great place, great location and you can't miss it.

First of all, the open late part: Its open until midnight every day. Secondly, the selection: news papers, foreign magazines and special editions, they've got it. They also do passport pictures! Only cons: Because they specialize in hard to find items, I feel they sometimes miss on carrying more everyday titles. I buy Esquire and GQ, and they often don't have both versions (British and American) where you'd expect them to. Otherwise, top shelf selection and still a go to for magazines!

It Carrie's other things as well, such as souvenirs, cigarettes and candy, but a vast majority of its stock is actual magazines.

Still, a good store and a good place to get your favorite periodical.

Tip: NOW Magazine is strictly digital these days…read more During my teenage years, I read NOW Magazine practically religiously. It was a printed alternative weekly newspaper. I loved checking out the movie and concert listings. It also let me know what was going on in the city. I remember reading an article about Madonna. The author slammed everything about her. I was a huge Madonna fan and wrote a letter responding to the article, sharing my side of the coin. I'm pretty sure that I wrote the letter by hand. I said that she was a savvy businesswoman and worked hard to make ends meet. My letter got published in the following week's newspaper. It was a happy moment for me. I remember saving the newspaper clipping. I need to see if I still have it. I just learned that NOW Magazine stopped printing physical publications in August 2022. It's strictly digital these days and continues to be free. You can subscribe to its newspaper. You get content about local events and more sent to your inbox. I don't know how often it gets sent. Maybe I should subscribe! NOW Magazine brings back a lot of fond memories. I used to pick up my free copy at the Van Houtte Cafe on the same block where my parents and I lived. That cafe has changed over the years. It was a Starbucks before it became Pizzaiolo. I do like the articles. It's nice to reconnect with newspapers that I used to read. I get to do it digitally these days, which saves a tree or more. (88)

My dad would always get the Saturday edition each week. It had Starweek, the entertainment magazine with TV listings, crossword puzzles, and more. I don't think this magazine exists anymore. I liked the comics and entertainment sections the most. Over the years, I ended up reading everything. When I was looking for a summer job, I'd look at the classifieds. I managed to work a couple of summers during my high school years. There's currently a digital subscription special. It's $1 for six months of online access. After that period, it's $28 a month. I believe that after a certain number of article reads that you do online, you get a message to subscribe. I oddly don't get it now and I'm not sure why. I do subscribe to getting a daily synopsis of tops stories in my inbox. It's nice to be informed. The Food and Drink section is great. I like the occasional recipe and what's trending in the greater Toronto area. I also like restaurant recommendations, including the best diners in the GTA. I'll probably stick to accessing articles digitally than getting the physical paper delivered to my door. Getting the top stories in my inbox for free is nice. (100)

I sometimes make a quick stop there to pick up their jamaican beef patties which are very reasonably priced at around $1.50 I think? They also taste amazing and are piping hot when they serve them! Today I had their tuna fish sandwich and while it wasn't as reasonably priced as the beef patty (almost $6 after tax), it was a really delicious sandwich. So overall, good convenient food, clean premises and courteous staff
