The store has taken over the entire space Rona used to be, making it incredibly large. With slight exaggeration, you could get 10k steps in just looking around. There are a wide variety of goods being offered, and the prices are often even cheaper than Dollarama (though some stuff is kinda overpriced in comparison, like $30 kitchen shelves?) so I guess they win some lose some. I found some really good deals for plates, kitchenware, hair accessories, stationary, and foam rollers. Since the place is so big, it's hard to find a worker, and even if you find someone, they likely will not know the answer. It's okay though... explore away!

After the crazy/busy lineups and hype, we finally made it here. The store is incredibly huge, with…read morelong aisles of practically everything you can think of. We saw unique items like wheels for lawnmowers and bikes. There are also cosmetics, housewares, stationery supplies, etc. The store is quite messy, though, with many aisles that need cleaning and reorganizing, and imo, the quality is much lower than Dollarama or Dollar Tree. The parking lot is huge, and the store wasn't overly busy for a weekend afternoon.

Staff in the past let us come in first with the member's pass as they were parking and the member would come in with the app or credit card. It can take up to 30 minutes to find a spot! This time, they said no and told us to wait at the side. We just decided to leave. The parking situation is the store's problem, not the customer's, and having us waste that much time waiting is unreasonable. The food court line-up is also highly disorganized. Whatever you are craving, by the time it's your turn, you're so annoyed that you don't even want it anymore.

This location always has great footfall and long lines for fuel but entering still runs smoothly. We go to this location to get our weekly dairy products - absolutely love their Greek yogurt. Everything is generally well stocked and the weekend visits stays include ton of food samples. The staff here is very efficient, the billing lines are run smoothly and quick for both self service and billing counters. They run of icrecream sometimes but all other food items are the food kiosk are always available at short waiting periods. I do find a lot of great clearance items here from time to time, so I visit frequently. Costco membership is one of best purchases for me. It's right value for money.

They posted an ad on Kijiji for a "NEW" PlayStation DualShock 4 controller for $39.99 plus taxes. I…read moredrove all the way from Toronto to Markham to purchase it. They kept the controllers behind a glass case. They had about 7 controllers and to my surprise, the controllers were kept in clear plastic bags! No original Sony packaging! I asked "I thought these were brand new?" The guy there says "these are what we call open-box items. The controllers were just removed from the PS4 system. But they have never been used." That was a total lie because I inspected all the controllers (2 silver, 1 blue, 4 black) and they all had scratches on them. Several of them even had the serial number sticker on the back removed or scratched off. I questioned him about that, and he said "well we've sold many of these and never had a problem". There was a second hand store across from them that I went to and they advised me that this Canadian Outlet Store was notorious for selling refurbished items. Don't trust this place! See my photos of their listing.

The first time I visited Skycity Shopping Centre must have been in 2018. I was a huge fan of Happy…read moreLemon and the closest one to my home was here. Since then, this bubble tea franchise has shut down in the GTA. Chung Chun Rice Dog has taken over this spot. This change explains Skycity in a nutshell. There is a high concentration of bubble tea shops at Skycity. Competition is fierce. I was recently here, thinking that I should get some bubble tea. I actually couldn't decide because the selection was insane and proceeded with my errands instead... haha! I tend to visit Chatime the most here to get my bubble tea fix. Apart from an oversaturation of bubble tea stores, this place has a ton of food. I feel like it'll take me years to eat my way through this place. I recently visited Chung Chun and had an excellent experience. I love their Korean rice dogs and I'm thrilled that this location is a lot closer to me than heading over to North York to satisfy my cravings. My local Cheese Garden is here. I like that I can order online and drop by to pick up my goods. There are benches scattered around the plaza in case you are in a food coma after stuffing yourself to rest or take a nap. There is plenty of parking, although it does getting busy at night. Many eateries and bubble tea places open till 11:30 pm or midnight. There are other businesses, such as electronic stores, nail salons, and more. I have yet to make a dent in these categories here. The catch is that when you exit onto Midland, you can only turn right. Although it's convenient for me to turn left and head home, I don't mind cycling around the block to get home. It's safer considering how weird drivers can be around this area. One of these days, I will visit every bubble tea place here. The problem is that I have my usual places in Markham that it's tough to break decent habits. (342)

I guess I benefited from "Corona Effect 1" which was the brief period of people avoiding crowded places before "Corona Effect 2" HoardFest kicked in. This was once my go-to Walmart, but I hadn't actually made a purchase here in 6 years (since the last time they went 24hrs during the Xmas season) because of obscene lineups & waiting times. I expected to just look around for whats on sale,then buy it at another location as usual. Turned out there was hardly anyone here so I bought Valvoline MaxLife engine oil for my Mom's car on sale for $19 / 5L and some washer fluid. That was a happy surprise. This location was reorganized and cleaned up about a year ago without the major renovation upheaval experienced in locations at Richmond Hill or Agincourt Mall. There are definite benefits more tidy, well lit displays and more walkable aisles while all sections remain in familiar locations. The trade off is you're less likely to score those occasional "finds" from rummaging through a mess to unearth a long discontinued item with an absurd markdown. This was probably a lucky one-off, I'm not a big Walmart fan anyway but when I do use it I will probably keep preferring the Richmond Hill & Woodbridge locations, but it was a cool experience anyway

This store is huge and you should find what you're looking for by paying attention to the overhead signs between the aisles. The selection is pretty vast and quantities plentiful as the shelves are constantly re-stocked by staff. I found what I was looking for and felt pretty good for the $10 I paid on 3 kitchen items and $1 for the card (all pre-taxes). Mind you, all but the card came from China. Checkout was quick although nobody actually got a thank you from the cashier after the sale; we're talking about 5 different customers including me. Minus 1 star!!

Noteworthy mostly for hosting a couple of cult favorite eateries - Allwyn's Caribbean food and High Street Fish & Chips. I figure the presence of Allwyn's alone makes it worthy of it's own Yelp listing. Anchors are a small old-style Shoppers Drugmart and a smallish Valu Mart supermarket. I find it amazing how the plaza is able to sustain TWO medium sized convenience stores alongside the Valu Mart & Shoppers. It must be a reflection of the customers in this neighborhood having a strong preference to get groceries at an old fashioned conrer store as opposed to corporate chains (and being able to afford it ) Beyond that there's an assortment of small specialty shops & services, a section with medical & dental offices, early childhood education and a dance studio. With a generous parking lot and a continuous porch covering all the storefronts, the plaza is well suited to takeout & curbside pickup. Yet as of June 7th, most of the business here have chosen to stay fully closed. However the Valu Mart, Shoppers & two variety stores are open and if you're looking for a quite shopping experience without COVID19 crowding this place is about as low action as it gets.
