Ok, so Yelp keeps encouraging me to review this place, I guess since I've checked in so many times…read moreand the place actually has no reviews. So here goes. This is a Winners (which for my American friends is like a TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Ross Dress for Less, etc.) that is attached to a Homesense (like the houseware version of Winners). This location doesn't carry a lot of cool brands and there is no "Runway Section." That being said, I have found a few pieces here, but mostly just athletic wear. Unless it's a return from another location, you likely won't find any fashion-forward items here. I love Winners in general, and I still go hoping to score that awesome find one day, lol. The space is big and it looks like other suburban Winners (as opposed to the "urban concept" Winners or the quirkiest Winners I've been to which is the one on Front St in Toronto which is in the space of several converted row homes). This is in a strip mall, so naturally lots of free parking.

I find this Winners to be a little bit tidier than other Winners I've been to, though sometimes I…read morefind the selection a bit more limited. I guess you trade one convenience for the other! The Winners is collocated with the HomeSense next door, and they share a checkout line. So sometimes the checkout line is crazy long. On the flip side, it is convenient if you need to do some shopping on both sides and only want to check out once. This is the only location we've got in Orleans. I guess the next closest one would be the one on St. Laurent. If you're selecting between this location and St. Laurent, I recommend picking this one.

Since finding the bracelet I have been back several times and always find what I am looking for. The owners and staff are very pleasant and helpful. The service is exceptional. If you are around the area it is well worth dropping in. I guarantee you will be pleasantly surprised.

This is a pleasant and reasonably priced store that offers Asian decorative products. They have…read moreclothing, dishes, sushi sets, chopsticks, many books on Asia's culture, beautiful silks, Feng Shui products, art, cards, and calligraphy and painting supplies. There aren't many stores like this in the surrounding area, so if you're nearby and looking for anything I just mentioned, it's worth taking a look. I've always received exceptional service when I've come here. I think one of their best products is their tableware.

Anyone who knows me knows that I love Marshalls, Winners, TJ Maxx, Ross Dress for Less, and stores…read moreof that ilk (and let's not forget Loehmann's and Filene's Basement back when they had brick and mortar stores, while we're listing my favourite stores, lol). So I was super excited when I learned that Marshalls was opening a new store in Orleans. My parents and brother's family live in Orleans, and like a good daughter/sister/aunt, I visit them regularly. So what a great excuse to go shopping before or after my visits, haha! So all Marshalls look and feel very similar, but I'll tell you what stands out for me with this one. Their makeup section is one of the best. They have lots of higher end brands like Marc Jacobs (love their silky eyeshadows), Gucci, Dior, YSL, etc. compared to other locations. Also, since they are new, their cosmetics are less picked over (i.e. no broken blushes, lipsticks that have obviously been swatched/tried on, etc.). Their clothing section and shoe department is the same as others. Their food section I find has less variety. And they have less designer handbags. No jewelery department, as is the case with most Marshalls I've been to. The parking lot is not yet entirely paved, but it's fairly spacious. If you love shopping and live in or go to Orleans, why not duck in and have a look-see? :)

I've been hooked on Marshalls lately, and decided to take a break from my usual go to Marshalls at…read moreTrainyards and check out this one. It's smaller sized Marshalls than what I am used to but had all your usual departments like mens, womans, babies/kids, housewares and beauty. Some departments were smaller than others, and did not have a lot of selection, so I did not feel too fulfilled on my shopping trip, or maybe I just went on an off day? The one thing that I did love about this location were their snacks. I love coming to Marshalls and stocking up on chips, candies and some vegan jerky. They had loads of snacks by the checkout, which is located in the middle of the store. Which brings me to that...the checkout. The whole checkout situation kinda threw me off. I found the location of it awkward, and it's not very roomy if you have a cart or stroller. There is a HUGE Winners/Homesense down the street, so I was expecting this store to really "bring it" in terms of wow-ness, but it was just A-OK.

This place is a women's fashions consignment store. It has mostly fast fashion items which don't…read moreinterest me much, but once it a while you will find a rare gem, like a quality piece designed and made in Europe or something by an up and coming Canadian designer. Some items are even brand new with original tags still attached. These are the items I usually look for. Especially in the age of online purchases, if something doesn't fit, sometimes it's cheaper to consign the item than pay for shipping to return or exchange. I've been on both sides of this situation. I am also guilty of impulse (final sale) purchases that result in buyer's remorse and buying items with intentions to wear but then when I finally put them on again, they no longer fit (I'm sure it's the little demons in my closet that shrink my clothes at night and not because of the ice cream sundaes that I eat). But enough about my shopping and eating habits... So at Déjà New, most items are mid-range fast fashion, so like Jacob, Zara, Le Chateau, etc. There are no (authentic) luxury items there (more on that in the next paragraph). They say they don't take anything older than 3 years, but I've seen some dated frumpy stuff there. They don't curate their items all that well because I've seen fake Coach bags and fake Louis Vuitton bags there. However, I have also seen authentic Coach bags and authentic Michael Kors bags, which is about as high end as it gets there. You won't find any Gucci, Chanel or (real) LVs. The price tags have 3 prices with dates next to them. The price decreases with time, so after the last date, it is the cheapest price. They give the seller 40% of the selling price. You can check your account online. If your item doesn't sell after 75 days, it becomes their property and they can continue on sell it and keep 100% or they can donate it to charity. You can pick your item up before the 75 days if you want it back. They sell clothes, shoes, purses and jewelry. Only women's stuff, no men's or children's. The store is small and a bit crowded, but well organized by category and size. They have a small plus-sized section. They have petites which are mixed in with regular sizes, no separate section. The store does not smell musty. The staff are nice. It's in a strip mall with a small parking lot.

Then one day one of my friends told me they also sell clothes. I said "yeah, like riding breeches that make you look like you're wearing a diaper? No thank you." She said "no, like regular clothes." Being the shopper that I am, I had to check it out. My friend was right, they do have regular clothes. Well, they are more "outdoor adventure/active lifestyle" kind of clothes. Like what you would find at Sail, Mountain Equipment Co-Op and Bushtakah. They have a huge selection of Royal Robbins and they carry my favourite brand of this kind of clothing, Toad & Co. (formerly called Horny Toad - and I'm so glad they changed the name because I used to get a lot of funny looks when I asked stores if they carry Horny Toad). Anyway, prices are on par with other stores that sell this kind of clothing. They do have a clearance section at the back of the store where items are marked down and prices can be quite low. If you need to use the fitting room and staff aren't around, there's an old school bell on the wall that you ring. It's pretty cool! I can't speak about any of their equestrian supplies because I don't know anything about such things, but there's a huge selection. Staff are always friendly and nice. The parking lot is unpaved and bumpy with potholes everywhere, so be careful!

The gentleman who does orthotics and repair shoes, he is so rude, insulting, there is no word to describe that man.

This man at Cordonnerie Regional start putting down Dr. Greenberg Podiatrist. Even after telling him that Dr. Greenberg basically save my feet after starting to make my orthotics two years ago. He said its because you did not come here for your orthotics, looking at my old orthotics he said you see this is not the way of doing orthotics, he was so frustrated because I kept telling him how Dr. Greenberg did an amazing job on my orthotics. I was going to buy those sandals but then he start telling me that I could not even get a credit note if the orthotics wouldn't fit in the sandals. When you have problems with your feet, you need to turn to an experienced doctor of podiatric medicine who listens and responds ... an experienced podiatrist who knows the field and can effectively diagnose and treat your needs ... a friendly practitioner who counsels you on the best ways to maintain and improve your health. Certainly not Cordonnerie Regional! If there was less than 1 start that's what he would get.
