Such nice people run this sweet secondhand shop in tiny Athens, Ontario. We were just puttering…read morearound and saw some things we like, and the young, lovely owner came out from the back to chat. He showed us some sweet guitars and amps basically new he had for sale and we oohed and awed over those. We were also looking at a huge snowsuit to use for our tobogganing hill at the lake this winter, and when he saw it was ripped he just gave it to us. We bought the Peugeot peppermill we found and headed off for lunch happy, making a mental note to check back in whenever we're nearby. You should too! The sign out from it bright and hard to miss, and there's a great big community donation box next door as well. Wishing these folks all the very best!!

Conveniently located before the border into the US, many liquors are clearly labeled if made in…read moreCanada. When entering and leaving, be sure to wait for the proper gates to open and close, and there is only one way to go in and out. As another reviewer said, make sure you know your license plate number too. Staff was able to tell me that if I buy enough alcohol that paperwork would be filled and I would be charged extra at the border is all, but no real limits seem to be present otherwise. I am sure if you buy a huge quantity you may need to be able to briefly explain yourself such as if you have a detailed list ready of who you want to give to and why. Staff is very helpful about which liquors have stronger flavor and which have stronger liquor. This is a basic concept that I feel has gone over many others' heads because they just want to sell me something based on some potentially correct science that may be entirely useless for my taste buds. The variety is here if you want that last minute mainstream grab or you get something here that may be harder for you to get elsewhere. There are several varieties of maple liquor. If you love sweeter tasting and a pretty looking leaf bottle and are from the US, get what I got. Sounds like I need to look for a teddy bear and use the bathroom next time by the other reviews!!

In fact this is where I picked up the first fishing pole and lures that I bought myself. Thank you, Gananoque Reporter paper route. Now as an adult, when I'm back home I still go there to find the stuff that I need around the house first. Propane for the barbecue, replacement appliances, emergency sporting goods. Yes, you can have emergency sporting goods. Ever realize that the river froze in front of your parents place and you need hockey sticks and pucks? STAT??? Well, Canadian Tire saved me. The staff are always friendly and helpful and will give you any advice you need on projects or equipment you need to buy. Myself, I can't go in there and not pick up something. Oh, and the gas bar out front (http://www.yelp.ca/biz/canadian-tire-gas-bar-gananoque) typically has competitive gas prices and gives you Canadian Tire money with your purchase so that you can go back and get an emergency bag of pucks.
