What a great little Second Hand Shop the ladies working there are extremely friendly, helpful and…read morequite personable. There are an abundance of clothing to sort through (which is half the fun) shoes, books, a little selection of toys, as well as jewelry and many more trinkets to be discovered. The prices are extremely reasonable and don't be surprised if you show up and they have an added sale to an already marked down selection of items. Looking forward to making more visits in the future.

You may have heard of the Amish Store in Balderson for the fine, sturdy, and well built furniture…read morethey offer for sale. However, you may not know that they have started building kitchens. YES - KITCHENS! Their creations are absoluty divine! I was convinced to use their services simply by what they have on display. I thought we could buy what they were showing, bring it home and put it in, but then we talked to Debbie... OMG what an experience! She came to our house, measured the space, and asked us what features we wanted to put in our own kitchen, then drew it all out on paper. The price of the quote she was able to provide us was very comparable to what other companies are offering even though this kitchen is all hand made, but it was also soooo much more - begining with the fact that it was built out of solid wood instead of pressboard or melamine. Add to that the many features built into it, which puts this kitchen way over and above what anyone else is offering! This kitchen MAKES the house! Put it this way: where most kitchen design companies and box store cabinet providers charge for any improvements over the shape of your boxy cabinets, the Amish store will build cupboards that fit in your kitchen, and will include so called upgrades such as that little shelf below the sink to hold rubber gloves, sponges, and your jewellery while you wash dishes; a spice drawer with shelves in it; pot drawers; recycling containers; up and down slats to hold your bakeware; and a roll-out cutting board and anything else you can think of. If you are considering kitchen designs - whether to upgrade your current kitchen, or for a new home build - I strongly urge you to compare with what the Amish Store has to offer. And PS: If by chance you have NOT heard of them, I strongly suggest you make a trip out to see them - even if you're not looking for a kitchen or furniture! Balderson is an enjoyable drive out in the country. Why not make a day of it? Take in the cheese shop, grab a bite to eat in the cafe, or go to the local tea room. Shop for souvenirs across the street. And let us know what you think of it!!

I wish I could write something positive about this store because the merchandise is certainly…read moreamazing and high quality. Last spring, I sent an e-mail through the store's "contact us" with an inquiry and received no reply. So, in the summer, I drove to Balderson and spoke with a sales person who, at the time, was unable to give me a price on the table and chairs that I wished to order. She took my name and e-mail address in order to send the information to me. Well, I have never received an e-mail or telephone call. I am surprised by the lack of respect for a potential customer. I had planned to buy multiple rooms of furniture but given the lack of respect I have been shown, I won't be returning. I'll take my business to a store which shows some respect for its customers.

Love going to the Arnprior Dollarama. Great selection and always something new everytime I shop…read morethere. Definitely a plus that they open at 8am during the week. Only downfall is the fact that the roof leaks and there are always buckets in the isles to catch the water. Not their fault but definitely an eye sore.

This dollar store is one of the best dollar stores in Ottawa, in my opinion. However, they have…read moremany items that are more than a dollar. In fact they have items that are $20+. So it's more like a discount store or a bargain store. Nonetheless, they have lots of cool stuff. They have tons of arts and crafts items. If you are a scrapbooker, you will find lots of scrap book materials here! This store has a lot of party accessories (e.g. for bridal showers, baby showers, milestone birthdays, etc.). They also have lots of mylar balloons that you can choose from and they will fill them with helium right there for you. They have the usual dollar store items as well. It's located in the Chapman Mills Marketplace in Barrhaven, so lots of free parking. It's near the Dairy Queen.

This store has an impressive variety of goods. Its crafting section is truly outstanding, and I…read moreoften go there to buy crafting supplies or items I can't find at other discount stores - they usually have what I'm looking for. For seasonal items, it just can't be beat in the downtown core. The prices are higher than other discount stores (often for the exact same product), but its convenient location, friendly staff, and vast array of goods make it worth the extra cost.

Find yourself out in Ottawa looking for things to do? Tanger Outlets Ottawa sits right off a…read morehighway exit that has all the fan favorites like Nike, Adidas, Ralph Lauren Polo, Roots, Gap, Columbia, Asics, Lululemon and many more. Gotta love finding deals at Outlets especially the sale or clearance items as most stores had great deals to be had. It is hard to walk out empty handed with all the popular brands. With plenty of parking, a decent food court and many shops, Tanger is a nice shopping mall to find some deals.

Went to Tanger Outlets Ottawa and honestly had a really good time…read more There's a ton of stores and I actually found stuff here I couldn't find online or at regular locations which surprised me. The deals were really good too Old Navy was solid as usual and even Lululemon had that 2 for $100 leggings thing. They have QR codes everywhere so you can just scan and join their rewards/app on the spot and get coupons while you shop which is kinda nice, didn't feel complicated. The vibe was cute too there's like a fire pit in the middle (even though it was sunny lol), music playing, and I swear I smelled mini donuts at one point with some bangers playing lol Also random tip but if you're signed up with Lindt you can get free chocolate bag for your birthday (and like up to 30 days after). Only thing is the food area is super small, like a couple spots, so don't expect a full food court. But honestly you won't really care because there's a lot to walk through. Would go back for sure.
