Popped into the Disney Store today for their twice yearly sale and so glad we did! Snagged a set of Disney Ornaments for the Christmas tree - Regularly $34.50 CDN for $9.99 as well as a few other great goodies. The staff are ALWAYS polite and helpful - Odd, something not always found these days! I also like their new location (they used to be upstairs near the Apple Store and now they are almost in the same spot downstairs on the opposite wall. The store is larger and now has items from Disney's newest acquisitions including Muppets and Spider Man, etc. Anytime we stop by West Ed we always visit the Disney Store!

The staff gave paper masks to everyone that wanted to participate in the parade so myself and a plethora of 6 year olds decided to dress up like Disney characters and walk around the store to some lovely Disney marching music. After having an enjoyable time participating in the parade, I quickly dropped an unplanned $200 on my 3 favourite things: Star Wars, Spider-Man, and Frozen. Needless to say, I love going into the Disney Store because it makes me feel like a kid again. You'd be hard pressed to find better customer service these days anywhere else. A friendly staff member even reached onto the top shelf to get my big stuffed Sven. Thank you Disney Store for being so welcoming and ending each and every transaction with, "Have a Magical Day."

Love LOVE love me some Sweet Boutique!…read more I've been shopping here since the days of parking lot chaos at their first location. Sweet Boutique recently celebrated their 5th birthday! I love their new location on St. Albert Trail next to BP's. (I think it's been almost 3 years here?) From their live WIW (Win It Wednesday) Facebook streams to their name of the day discount, Sweet Boutique knows how to court their regulars. They've got it all, from the softest leggings on the planet to the best jeans for every body type! I love that Sweet Boutique has something to help every woman feel her best. They even have something for the men in your life. Last year, I got sassy and funky dress socks for my kids' male teachers. The customer service is second to none and the vibe is cozy chic from the moment you walk through the door. Be sure to sign up for their free loyalty program to earn rewards!

They have a wide selection of sizes, from XSmall to 3X. I'm about a size 24/3X and some of their 3X items are almost too big on me, which always makes me smile. The staff treats me with the same respect they give small to average size women, which in my experience doesn't happen often in a plus/regular mix size store. Along with clothing, they have accessories, fun items like socks and sweets, and a wall of personal care items like bath bombs, body cream, hand sanitizer, and aromatherapy. The owner, Laura, is an amazing member of the community who supports other small businesses and brought joy to my family at a rough time when we were missing a loved one. She wasn't asked, she just offered and we will always be thankful to her for her act of kindness.

I love how the 124 St. district is shaping up into a coffee, art, boutique and restaurant mini-mecca. Shades of grey is located just around the Jasper/124 St. bend, near Matahari, Yo Mamma and a handful of other trendy shops and eateries. If you like to wear more unique brands, this store carries lines from New York and L.A., including Line & Dot, Anlo and Yumi Kim. The quality is fantastic - luscious, cozy, elegant fabrics and designs - sexy & sophisticated, inspired by more than a hint of Paris, and most of the pricing is reasonable, although there are a few higher-end price tags about the store. The next time I need a little retail therapy, I'm there - no shades of grey about it.

And they do sell pretty much the same clothes as those stores, just for prices that are higher than their quality is worth. Really, I'm not just being cheap here, I think it would do to go somewhere else a little more expensive and actually get better quality, clothes that will last you longer. A simple tanktop or accessory from Labels might do, since those are just accent pieces, but I wouldn't buy anything major from Labels. You're better off spending those bucks elsewhere.

A lot of the clothing here is very trendy and geared towards teens/twenties hipster or skater types, but there is also a lot of mature fashions such as business clothing. I didn't buy anything (and I had to restrain myself) but I can tell this is a store I am going to visit regularly when at West Edmonton Mall.

I haven't seen anyone write up anything about stores with specifics on Anime, and this should be on…read moreyour radar if you're a fan. If you're looking for a store that has genuine Anime paraphernalia, this may be the store for you. It has a tone of random little bits and pieces, but it also has figures of several different characters from all sorts of anime, such as Naruto, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, and if your lucky there's a chance you'll get some Blue Lock in there as well. (And of course, Hatsune Miku is included.) Imagine+ also has plushies of all random sorts, including but not limited to brain-rot and Roblox. Yes. Literal Roblox. (Funko-pops are everywhere as well.) I've seen some Sonic included merch, and even some Genshin Impact keychains, there is a display section at the back of the store that has a plenty of knickknacks as well. I recommend going in person to evaluate it yourself. It may just be what you were looking for. Customer service wise.... It gets a solid 3.5 stars. Unfortunately, I do not have any images in my camera roll, I'll update this review when I get them.

Hello, what's this?…read more Shopping with my bestie in Phase One of West Edmonton Mall, beside The Bay, and in the spot where I thought I would find a bank or an ATM, stood Imagine +. Toys and gifts? We had to check it out. Especially with the display in front showing a Chewbacca backpack, Call of Duty merchandise and Cards Against Humanity. It promised to be interesting. It's a small, orderly store, and I like the selection. It seems to be a mix of collectables and toys. They have stocking stuffer bits, pieces from Doctor Who, Adventure Time, Lego, and other characters and toys I'm not hip enough to recognize. There are toys for all ages. I saw lego sets, plush toys, Call of Duty toys, Walking Dead paraphernalia, Minecraft, Pokemon, remote control cars and DRONES for sale. There's more, but I was too busy buying a Call of Duty gun for my bestie's boy and considering a drone ($180, I think? Might be less...I thought most of the prices to be pretty reasonable for the merchandise.) for my husband to remember all of it. Plus I was intrigued by the werewolf card game the cashier showed me, where up to 75 people can play at once. I thought the store could stand to have more in it...Having said that, it was easy to walk through and gawk. And who knows? maybe they'll have more as word gets around about them. I'd check them out again.

I was greeted by Wonder Woman (it was Halloween) and she was very friendly and helpful. She let me browse the store without pressure (which I really appreciate because some stores can put a lot of pressure on you to purchase). Other than Christmas decorations, Jilly's a bit of everything! There is clothing in the back (it's very expensive though - so expensive I almost choked on my gum). They also have numerous home decor items, candles, bath and soap products, they have a lot of stuff. The sale section towards the back of the store drew me in immediately (it had purses). I really liked Jilly's. I will be going back to shop soon!

Jaillis Boutique is packed full of goodies from jewelry, to candles, to clothing, and so much more! There is even a little kids section. You can also find Kate Spade stationary accessories here. This place is seriously jam packed! I took pictures, and when I looked at them after, I saw things in the picture I didn't notice in the store! You can, and probably should, spend at least an hour here! I was in there for about 20 minutes which is seriously a long time for me. I can browse a store and be out in 5 minutes. But this place was like a candy store for me :) My favourite sections in the store were the Farmhouse Fresh skin care line (get the Whoopie Cream lotion), the gurgle pots, and the Volcano candles. Oh! And the scarves! Such a huge selection of scarves here! So many great spring patterns and colours. This boutique has something for every budget. You can pick up gifts from $20 and up. What a great place to come for hostess gifts! And in addition, the girl working at the shop was super friendly and I could tell she loved working there. For real, I think this is as good as it gets for a local boutique in SW Edmonton. 5 stars all around! *Applause*

Product selection decent with purses, totes, wallets, jewelry, clothing, and other accessories for 50-60% off and extra 20%. The clearance in the back was 70%. I have purchased a few wallets and a purse from this store and the transaction went pretty smoothly. But even those associates are often stoic.
