Home Sense has usually let me buy really nice things for a fraction of the cost. We were in here…read morerecently for some Christmas presents. We found about 10 really nice gifts here. All in different departments. You can get some really good deals here. It is not a store where you should go away to think about if you want it or not. Chances are the item will not be there when you go back. Sometimes there are only a few items, and when they go, you are out of luck. So I have learned the hard way, If you see it and like it, buy it!

Those great deals also make it really easy to impulse buy. :-) We ended up here in a search for affordable bath mats. We found what we were looking for, then moseyed through the store because great deals. I've been coveting an enamel pot for a long time now, but they are too pricey for me. Why I never thought of checking Home Sense I don't know. Found a brand-name enamel pot for an incredible price. Exactly what I wanted. Home Sense has a unique selection of all things homey: kitchenware, bathware, decor, bedding ... they have it all. They have items and prices you just can't find at other stores in the area.

You can pep up your house with a new picture, mirror or lamp, for little money. I always see many well dressed girls in this store, so I think they have a great clientel. I got a TJX card which gives me 30 days to return things for a refund, instead of 10. Also all your bills are online in your TJX account, which is great in case you lose your receipt. I met a nice lady named Marlis the other night. She was arranging the throw pillows. She works in the store part time, and also has her own staging business. She had a good sense of colour and likes to get to know her client's taste when staging their home. I liked talking to her. She puts her passion into helping people.

Wicker Emporium carries a variety of furniture as well, mostly pine, but very nice quality and not all the same generic look, which can get boring. They have some nice pieces that were done in the stressed look, some really nice ,what I call , chunky tables. They have a large selection of curtains, which is great. I was there they had a fabulous sale, $14.00 for the curtains reg $30.00. Pillows, ah, I love pillows, they have beautiful accent pillows. I just like this store, and I saw this really neat lamp, I will go back for that.

I've walked out of this store with the best deals! I've gotten lamps for 75% off because of a small ding in the back. I've gotten pillows with tiny rips in the seam for next to nothing and some great nicknack's for around my home at amazing prices!! I love their curtains especially. I'm a big fan of candles and anything wooden. They have such a great selection of what I'm looking for. I'm rarely disappointed in the product or the store itself.

Hello, I did…read morecurbside pick up today. I understand the current climate of the pandemic, but the employees of Linen Chest at Bayers Lake in Halifax NS can still be decent human beings. A pandemic is no excuse. I watched an older couple walk-out with a bag of items. So I automatically assumed, as there was no signage outside, it wouldn't be a big deal for me to walk in and pick up my order. First of all, I walked in and was NOT greeted. Instead, before I could walk pass the front mat. I heard," You gotta...."I could barely hear her, very muffled due to the mask she was wearing, hardly any eye contact, she pointed as if I had to wait in the entrance. So that's what I did. I waited for a few minutes to be asked, can I help you?, which never happened. Instead, I was ignored. I then said," Excuse me; I have an online order to pick up." Then the whole tone changed. I felt as if now, my presence was known, and I was no longer being ignored. She asked my name, and what it was I ordered, NOW I can hear her clearly because I already spent money I'm guessing. They put my four pillows on the counters. The other representative took the pillows and started walking towards me. I ask politely, " Do I take the pillows from you? "... Her reply was "Just open your trunk, so you don't get too close to me" that's fine, I respect that. But it's all in the tone. She put the pillows in my trunk, and walked away, before entering the store. She said," next time, just call the store." How about there will never be a next time, especially at that location. And have a nice day too... I've done multiple orders online to pick up in-store, from the grocery store, to home hardware, to furniture stores, and at Bed Bath And Beyond. NOTHING compares to the level of horrible service I've received today. I wonder if the couple before me and gentleman after received the same underwhelming level of customer service. If so, that's unfortunate. I was so distraught, I called my husband to cope with the anxiety that the whole situation created during my visit. Those two employees should be ashamed of their selves.

I had assumed by their name they were just sheets and towels, so I didn't bother stopping in until recently. But no, they are much, much more than just linens. First, you are offered a hot beverage when you enter. We were also offered ham panini bites. I had tea, and Mike had hot chocolate and panini. They use the products they sell (in this case coffee maker and panini maker), so it's rather like a demo as well. Cleo was super helpful and informative while serving us. The store is deceptively huge. It looks smaller outside than it really is. Also, they have everything. Dinnerware. Glasses. Home decor. Kitchen appliances. Bedding. Mattresses. Window coverings. Exclusive lines. More knick-knacks than you can shake a stick at. And almost everything was on sale the day of our visit. I swear we spent an hour wandering through each section. Eventually we bought some glasses and a lotion dispenser (hush, it's a cool dispenser). The prices were awesome. I can't wait to return. This is my new first stop for all things homey.

This is simply one of those great big truths of the world: once you know what you want, you will never ever see it in a store ever again no matter how many times you stumbled across it before. It was in this state that I arrived at Tabrizi - a shop I had driven by at least twice a day for two straight years without ever having stopped in. We just redid our living room and need an area rug to be the crowning glory that pulls it all together. After revisiting all of my previous haunts, I figured I'd go right to the source. Tabrizi doesn't look like much from the street and, to be honest, it doesn't have much of a boutique feel once you're inside either. But, if you're looking for rugs, you'll find them here. Every wall is covered with hanging racks, the floor is covered in piles of rugs stacked by the dozen, and there are even rolled up ones leaning in every corner. It was a little staggering, to be honest. A gentleman was happy to give me the lay of the land, pointing me in the direction of their small modern collection, and I'm sure he would have been able to be a huge help if I was looking for something more classic like the bulk of their stock. There were some close contenders but ultimately I left empty handed. He did mention that they have a pretty sweet refund policy so that folks are able to bring a rug home for a substantial time period to see if it works - super helpful!
