Loved all the Holiday decor…read more Lots of lights and decorations. Super windy out so I wasn't able to stay as long as I would have liked to. Holiday sales a plenty! I'll be back for sure.

Oh Mango, locked away in the international terminal at YVR, so close, but so unattainable for…read moreeveryday shopping. When flying internationally out of YVR do take advantage of Mango's only Vancouver store front located in the International Terminal (US flights are a disappointment as the US terminal doesn't provide access). This Spanish chain has the loveliest and stylish clothes to make any girl feel special and the prices are very reasonable for well made clothing. If you are a fan Penelope Cruz and her sister also designs a line for them. Mango is a great reason to clear security early when travelling abroad for some warm up shopping. A great benefit of the location is for last minute holiday preparation purchases; you know when you are packing and you need the perfect dress to wear for a night out, this store will solve said problems.

Yup shopped at Mango boutiques all over Paris at amazing sales 1st week of July. The designs are…read moreamazing and the styles hide all the nasty areas around your middle, making them the most comfortable clothing ever, while retaining your up to date style. Wish we had one in Vancouver and the tri cities.

Came in to look at their ties during Black Friday and saw their deal of 3 ties for $139. Really…read moregood deal considering how a single tie is usually $88-108. Some of the colors/design make the ties look cheap but some are really classy looking. Quality of the ties seem pretty good compared to other ties. Though still way too pricey for what it is in my opinion but, I think it's worth looking at during sales like Black Friday/Boxing Day! And if you're not satisfied you can still return or exchange what you bought. Staff are kind, though perhaps a bit too pushy at times. One of them kind just kept standing, watching me, and waiting for me to choose my three ties when I wanted to look at them peacefully without pressure.

I love the stylish interior. It is one of the reasons why I like to stop in here. I don't feel…read moreblinded by all the white but rather inspired and trendy with all the dark decor. I bought a hat here for a friend of mine as a novelty. It was black with "Play" in gold. She's a DJ, therefore, thought that this was fitting.

Solid 3.5, located on the South terminal, at the food court, of all places…read more Not a very big store as it's shared with a golf store which I'll purposely leave out lol. But it's the nicest men's clothing to get at reasonable prices here, I've seen shirts 50% off. Style is typically conservative, well-made. Service is much better here than what you'll find at most outlets.

I will say: the prices are good. They had them on outlet prices but there was a signage out front…read morethat offered percentage off if you spent certain amount. Some items were outlet prices not on any additional price reductions but regardless if it's regular price or sale price you still get additional 15-20% off. I barely paid. Honestly. My total was about $600 and I walked out paying $275 with tax!! For a bag and a backpack! My only reason for the reduced stars....they had at least 1 person in the stock room, one person on the floor. One person at the desk doing something not cashier related. And one girl on cash. For a store that sells more expensive items than say forever21..... "1" cashier??? And when I asked the girl up at the front of the store if they could have another cashier. She looked. Wandered into the back. And that was that. She resumed helping staying at the front. I get it someone's gotta stay out at the front of the store. But there's "3" employees in the store on top of her and only one was doing cash. As a business: you're in it to MAKE MONEY???? You have customers lined up PREPARED TO HAND YOU MONEY... why would you make them wait? While the guy in the stock room just wanders back and forth to grab stuff and drop off at the cash desk and disappears to wait for the next item to be grabbed. I was so close to walking out. I came in with such a great mood but the long wait at cash got me just enough irritated that I was almost pissed off when I was paying for my items. People pay the money they do. Cuz they like the brand. And it's not like shopping at Walmart. But when you just keep people waiting like this. It's no different than shopping in cheaper stores, the long lines and understaffing. Make your customer's feel special!! Either hire more cashiers or at least teach them to hop on cash if there's more than 2 people in line. The lady in front of me chatted and chatted then somehow 5 mins later walked away to the side of the desk to wait for something or debate something, and you're just left wondering omg you just wasted 5 mins of my time and you're not even ready to pay? The Burnaby Metropolis Michaels has "2-3" staff and they don't leave people waiting like this. You have at least 4 staff!!

It's fun to attend these kind of Sample Clearance Sale if you are a shopaholic looking for deals…read morelike me! But it might turn out to be frustrating when you found something you like and then sizes and colors are not available:( My advice is get over it! or pick a second choice or wait for the next time... I would give higher rating if the sale could be better organized such as by sections, by gender, by sizes and by category (yes! you got it- I mean the set up of an outlet store rather than a night market).

Ever since they've " modified " their return policy we being cheap a$$e$ definitely shopped here…read moreless . No refunds on sale items , at all , I mean who does that in Canada eh ? Lol having said that they're still hands down one of the better quality fast fashion chains around . The fact they still use durable YKK zippers impresses us , and yes it's the minute details that make a difference . Do try to avoid getting any of their UT tees in white as they tend to yellow just after a few washes . You're welcome : )

Of course one of my last stops on my Vancouver trip had to be Uniqlo! I was saving it till the end…read morebecause there is always a chance I overspend at Uniqlo and so I didn't want to carry all my purchases during my entire trip. This location was clean and well spread out. They had enough employees and some sales going on. No complaints about my visit!

Here's the deal with this place…read more Its headquarters are in HK and was spawned out of HK. When I go to HK, this, along with Bossini, are the dominant stores in terms of casual fashions for the younger generation. So the place is not really for me. However, I did manage to find a belt to go with a pair of shoes I was lusting after at Aldo. Belt first, then the shoes, because the belt was harder to find. It was in a shade of darker blue. THAT"S incredibly hard to find for a guy, but I found it here of all places. Shop carefully in here since a lot of the fashion is Asian centred, unless that's the look you're going for.

He told us to go look in the store to find the right size. There were only size L and XL. My hubs looked at the tag on the jacket on the mannequin. M. Guy comes over, we ask to try it on. If it fit he would have bought it right there. Guy hesitates, replies with, "Is there a similar style in Medium you can try?" Wow, I just said forget it, it's too much work for him. Never will bother looking at this store again. Rude.
