Awesome store. It's huge. Much better selection that the store in Pickering…read more The stuff is super friendly and helpful! We came at the end of the day on the New Year's eve and I forgot my purse when I was leaving. I only realized when I was on my way home when they called my husband's cell from my cell phone. Although the store was already closed, they waited for us to come back and pickup the purse. So very grateful. Awesome-awesome people!

So the Big K headed in first while I went to Dollarama nearby to waste some time. How long could buying a hockey stick take? I finally had to enter National Sports to investigate the Big K's disappearance and within record time I was greeted by a very friendly salesperson who not only found The Big K for me, but three perfectly wonderful, very expensive hockey sticks that could significantly improve The Big K's game (and in sum total cost more than my dishwasher.) After much careful consideration, The Big K finally settled on "just one" (thank goodness) from this neatly organized and well-stocked store. I rushed the Big K with stick in hand to the check-out (in an effort to prevent him from buying anything else.) Even the cashier was super-charming and personable and made paying the large bill less painful. Final words: bring lots of cash. This store is conducive to shopping.

They have a jersey wall which is cool, and someone left a skateboard attached to the rear of a bike that caught my eye! Golf sandals with turf! Why didn't I think of that! They feel comfy! Cool lifestyle Merchandising... LOL

If you are at Richmond Hill needing some hiking and camping gear, the right kinds of tactical…read moreclothes to go paintballing in, or some army surplus, Creative is the place to go. Tucked deep away inside an outdoor plaza complex at the northwest corner of Highway 7 and West Beaver Creek, the location is small, but not overcrowded, so you'll surely find what you need and want. Many military paraphernalia on sale are much cheaper than many army surplus stores in Toronto. Creative stocks many other new outdoor and tactical gear at decent prices. Perhaps you could also be interested in a riot helmet to go along with a machete? Mad props to the man running the store, who is not only very friendly and accommodating, he is not an intimidating military-obsessed nut (as army surplus stores tend to be staffed by military fanatics). {YRT: probably simplest to use VIVA purple line to West Beaver Creek}

Play It Again Sports in Brampton is one franchise of 100+ throughout North America. Nevertheless,…read morethe store has a very local feel to it, with very personalized and friendly service. As the name suggests, it's a sports consignment store, though they do sell some new products as well. For me, it makes a great deal of sense to purchase some sports equipment used since that new item you bought for more than twice the price will look the same after a couple uses. I've been here a few times in the past couple years and have always found what I'm looking for. We purchased my son's first real bike here. It was in terrific shape with virtually no signs of use and came at a great deal. I've popped in other times too, such as buying used softballs - which for me makes perfect sense to save money on rather than buying new ones. Outdoor skating season is now starting up again, which brought me in yesterday for skates. We plan on going several times this season, so it didn't make sense to keep renting each time we go. We can in yesterday to look at their skates, and they have a MASSIVE inventory of both new and used. The price of the men's skates ranged from $40-70, with even the $40 ones being your typical Bauer skate. I got ones for $60, which had very little use and were made of composite material, making it a bit lighter. I also found skates for both my kids, which each pair coming in around $30. They offer skate sharpening for $5, but did ours for free since we purchased three pairs. They had plenty of sales staff present, so anyone could get the help they needed, whenever they needed it. The manager is also supper friendly and very funny. Next time you're looking for some sports equipment, I'd recommend looking here first. You might be surprised at the amount of selection and the money you'll save.

Tip: Earn and redeem your CT money at this store…read more I was looking for a SportChek store to redeem my CT money. As I was driving home from work, I remembered this store at Cachet Centre that I had never been to. Perfect! This store is closer to Woodbine Avenue. There was lots of parking in front of the store. I pulled into a spot and walked in. The women's clothing section was to my right. I checked it out first. I liked seeing sandals and summery clothing. The clearance items are closer to the fitting rooms. I found a waterproof jacket with a hoodie that was $20 off. It fit well. I loved the colour. I said yes. I was looking at Blue Jays and Tempo clothing. I wanted to get the latter, to support our new WNBA franchise, but I didn't find anything that I liked in my size. Either I would be drowning wearing oversized men's or barely breathing in the women's t-shirts. A man by the shoe section asked if I needed any help. It was nice. It happened maybe ten minutes into my shopping experience. I was good browsing, but thanked him and I continued to explore. I saw a sign for washrooms next to the shoe section, but it was blocked off. You may have better luck at the Tim Hortons across from this store if you do need to use a washroom nearby. I headed to the checkout area. I got a nice, cheerful woman who asked how I was. It was good. I reciprocated. She was having a great day. I asked if I could use my CT money towards my purchase. She nodded and scanned my barcode off my phone. I also donated $2 to Jumpstart, which is Canadian Tire's national charity that helps kids from families in financial need overcome financial and accessibility barriers to participate in sports and recreation. It was my first time making a donation towards this charity. It was nice spending my CT money on an item that I liked. I have hoodies that are not waterproof, so it's nice to finally have one that does. I liked shopping here. I'd return when I'm in the area. Service is great and I liked the clearance section. (228)

Not particularly inexpensive, if you get my drift. I was in need of a golf driver, since I foolishly misplaced my driver last season, I was desperately in need of a new driver! So suffice to say, didn't feel like dishing out $300+ for a brand new driver, decided to checkout this place. Decent selection on second-hand golf drivers. Most of them are demo drivers from big box retailers it seems like. Tons of lefties!! If you are a lefty golfer and in need of a fresh driver, this is a great place to come by. You can even take the drivers out for a swing as they have practice mats in the basement. All in all, a pleasant experience. The manager hooked me up with a deal and gave me $20 off from the purchase price. So I gots my beautiful Callaway Diablo Driver for $120! I'd say that's a $200 off of retail easily. Go Tiger go!!
