Recently, Sanrio and Pusheen did a collaboration and offered a number of products. There were two…read moreplushies that I wanted from this collection. I tend to buy all things Pusheen from queenie's cards. When these products were rolled out, they were sold out within five minutes of being available online. I'm not exactly a hardcore Pusheen fan where I need everything. I am fairly selective. I actually found out about these items being sold out an hour later. Because queenie's cards was closing its physical store, but remaining as an online-only store, it wasn't going to restock. Queenie suggested that I try The Littlest Gift Boutique. She is friends with the owner. Sure enough, I was able to order the two plushies that I wanted. Yay! There were options to either have them delivered or visit the store at Square One. Since I hadn't shopped at this mall in nearly two years and I knew that I would be in the area, I went with pickup. I dropped by last night. Information about where the store was clearly stated in my confirmation message from The Littlest Gift Boutique. I had no problem finding entrance 9 at the mall. I parked and walked over. The store doesn't have its formal business name displayed. Rather, it simply had Gifts & Collectibles as I walked by. I looked at the plushies behind the glass, looked across to see Laura Secord, and put everything together. This store was what I needed. Similar to walking into queenie's cards, it felt magical at The Littlest Gift Boutique. It specializes in Japanese gifts and plushies that you get from playing claw machines. I was so happy looking at everything in this store. There are a lot of Pusheen products. I have a few that were displayed, such as Pusheen as a donut. I looked at the two plushies that I was about to pick up. They looked so adorable. I got to speak with the owner, who was friendly and great. I asked what she needed from me for her to fetch my order. She said the order number would be fine. I let her look at the number on my phone and she knew exactly which order was mine. She came back with a clear bag containing my plushies. I was in love with them. I asked how long she has been at the mall. She had her launch in November 2020, and then had to shut down due to one of our pandemic lockdowns. She will be at the mall till December of this year. Her business is considered a popup store. I let her know that her store filled me with joy. I could tell that she was happy hearing it. I wished her a great evening and I happily walked out with my goodies. I love getting handwritten notes. She had written one on my bag. It was lovely! My two new plushie addictions are cool. Pusheen is wearing a pink Hello Kitty dress with real pockets and Hello Kitty is wearing a Pusheen outfit. Cute! I loved a lot of items in this store, from an extensive wand collection, to Funko Pop figures. There was so much to look at. I was probably in this store way longer than I had anticipated. This store is awesome. I'm looking forward to returning, hopefully before it is no longer at Square One. (367)

Beautiful ambience, beautiful balance between being too empty and too cluttered, very neat and tidy, many interesting cards and other gift items, at much better prices than various major chain stores. The service was professional and very friendly, found an interesting music themed notebook at a price I can afford for a future visit. As this place is also very close to my cat's vet, it's pretty easy to make a visit or two within a two to three month period. Most likely coming back!

When I was a kid I remember going to Fairview Mall. Back then you had Sears and Hudsons Bay as…read moreflagship stores. Now in 2025, both big box stores are no longer in business. Fairview Mall has gone through an evolution and reimagination of the retail space. I love how they redeveloped the space where Sears used to be. The space is now converted into a mini Chinatown spot with Saint Germain bakery, bubble tea shop, Hong Kong style cafe, Thai restaurant, and a T&T Supermarket. On the top floor there's a Marshalls / Homesense big box store. I noticed the Zara store has been renovated and now occupying 2 levels. The store looks immaculate and love the modern layout and self serve checkout kiosks to make shopping faster for DIY people. I managed to do some shopping at H&M and got some great deals in the sale section. I also bought some groceries like green beans, lychee, bbq pork buns, and curry beef pastries. It's not very often you can go to regional mall and be able to buy clothes, groceries, and bakery goods. It was a pleasant experience. I look forward to the transformation of the vacant Hudson Bay space. Oh did I mention they have a Playdium arcade in the old Sportchek space beside the Cineplex theatre.
