We were able to make with quite the haul after perusing the interior portion of this shop for about half an hour. Hundreds of seed packages depending on whether you simply want to add a touch of colour to that vacant lot down the street, or make a full attempt at growing your own lettuce, carrots and pumpkins. Lots of house plants ready for the taking as well. I headed off with three Dahlia packages all of which were planted inside to start and have now reached at least a foot high in three weeks! Very impressed with this cute little nursery. They even obliged with directions.

I had my first Bath and Body Works experiences when I lived in Ottawa, and having liked it so much…read moreI was relieved to find that there was a B&BW store at Mic Mac Mall. This store is great for all things scented- with fragrant blends for each individual taste. Those who like fresh scents will love the citrus-y notes of the lemon fragrances. Playful personas with love the sweet pea products. And those into the classics with like the warm vanilla goodies. Those are just a few of the varieties you'll find in this store- and with the changing seasons, the store tends to add new flavor sensations. There are lots of products to choose from, ranging from rich lotions and body sprays, to a handful of hair products. For me I like the antibacterial soaps and sanitizers; where I work, I need all I can get. I like Bath and Body Works' sanitizers because they feature nice, fresh scents (not like the classic alcohol stench that comes from standard, pharmacy-brand sanitizers). Also, Bath and Body works has great secented products for the home- very, very useful if you own a dog, trust me. I sampled one of their aroma diffusers for my apartment back in Ottawa- it's kind of like a Glade plug-in, but they come in the classic Bath and Body Works stores. I'll admit that my Glade plug-ins certainly suffice, but once in a while, if I feel like switching things up, I'll use these diffusers for fresh scents. There aren't really cosmetics at this store, per se. But, there are a selection of bins with ssmall items like lip glosses (I bought a tasty, red-tinted gloss that was cranberry scented for the holidays, and in the past I've had one that smelled like a vanilla cupcake- yum!). Gift-giving is easy at this store. Home scents and body products are packaged in attractive gift sets and baskets. They're available year round, but during the holiday season, there are tons to choose from- and they're all reasonably priced sets. Next time you're at Mic Mac, check out this store- you'll like it!

I am always drawn to the Mic Mac Mall, I'm not sure why but I enjoy it much more than our other…read morelocal mall. But it could be because of this particular shop. I am absolutely in love with BBW! The amazing scents that enter my nostrils before I even enter the store make me weak in the knees. Not only the smell draws me in, but also the prices. There is always some kind of deal, and as I have said before I am sucker for them. That being said I spent nearly $30 on my last trip in, and came out with at least 10 different items. From hand sanitizers to lotions to candles to air fresheners, BBW has them all. From vanilla to citrus to jasmine to pomegranate, there is a fragrance for everyone. The only negative thing I have to say is; the bf hates it. Why? Scents sometimes bother him. SO for those of you out there who have these sensitivities, do not enter So I'll leave you with this: Oatmeal Caramel Cookie Candle.

There's remarkably good selection at this store in spite of their limited space. I buy as much as…read moreI can here because it's an important resource for the area's sewers, quilters and needleworkers, and I don't want to lose it. Basic fabrics are well-represented, especially quilting fabrics and upholstery/drapery fabrics, as well as all the accessories and equipment one needs. There's a small but good selection of general craft items, paints, glues and beads. Best of all is the staff. With a few exceptions, the staff are knowledgeable and very, very helpful, and the manager is outstanding.

I'm new to Nova Scotia and until the other day, I thought customer service people, without…read moreexception, were kind, friendly and helpful. The other day, I entered the store and asked a tall, older, grey haired woman behind the cash if they have any sewing kits. She pointed to a kit hanging right across from her and 1 look at it tells me don't buy it. Terrible quality and contents. I then walk around the store looking for thread and needles (1st time in the store). No one is around to ask for help although I'm really nearby the woman at the cashier. I choose what I think I need (turns out to be wrong) and while I'm waiting to pay, I see a selection of sewing kits on a table near the cashier. Why didn't she point these out as well? Perhaps, she was having a very bad day. It just left me annoyed and surprised.Good selection of fabric though and other supplies, not so much for just regular sewing needles, it seems.
