I have to agree with Tanya I on this one! If I have a choice about which Winners I can hit up, this…read morehas got to be it. It's always clean and organized and the staff are fantastic. I've had to make returns here a few times (sue me - I don't always like trying on clothes in the fluorescent change rooms) and the cashiers don't even blink they're so well trained and helpful. I love their home section here - they have a great baking and cooking selection and lovely pictures that don't fall on my head because they are smartly stacked at waist height (take note other locations!). I always, always find a ton of things I love here, but the prices can still be a little intense. They do sell higher end brands and you'll pay for them, but of course not as much as you'd pay at other stores (i.e. a pair of Coach sandals might run you $80). I love that they have brand here I usually order online, even their hair products like Cake. Winners - I love you. Sometimes, you stress me out, but this location really is the best fo the best.

SMART STYLE, Walmart Trainyards, Ottawa…read more My hair stylist move over to Smart style at Walmart maybe 3 years ago. NO ONE cuts my hair nearly as well as she does! I have seen her cut other people's hair each person is delighted with the result. :D including me. The selection varies from person to person. The price is good - For shampoo and dry is $36. When my haircut is done she by picks up the mirror to show me how she did the back. I value the hair stylist tremendously and pay for my haircut and give her a good tip.

The Glebe, and the area south along Bank Street, is a real trendy, upscale neighbourhood. The…read morehouses are expensive (a few million dollar homes, believe it or not!), the residents well educated and well-heeled. Plus, there are Carleton U students living there too, giving the area that urban chic, bohemian feel. So, it makes total sense that a shop like the White Box would flourish here. White Box markets itself as a not-your-ordinary shopping experience. They sell home decor items (furniture, drapes, lamps, wall-hangings, knick-knacks), bath and body toiletries, fancy baby and pet stuff, cards, gift baskets, etc. And all of it is high-end. No Walmart cast-offs here. It really is the kind of place you would shop for that person who has it all - but, only if you are made of cash. Parking is strictly street, but you can just ask your chauffeur to circle the block!

I love this HomeSense. It's fairly large, and I always walk out buying at least one thing…read more The store offers a large selection of pictures, household wares, books, furniture as well as linens. It is hard not to find anything at HomeSense that is not priced reasonably. Like other reviewers have mentioned, since it is located on Merivale Road, it should be avoided on the weekends. Not only that but avoid this location on Monday's as well, the stock is usually low, and the store is left with all the "left overs" from the weekend, that did not sale. Usually give it a day or two for the staff to load up the shelves with new goodies after their weekend rush. Best time to shop is Tuesday-Friday in the evening or morning. Don't forget, interior decorators get a discount at HomeSense!!

Minus the drive on Merivale the trip to Homesense was pretty good. This Homesense is massive! There are a lot of items at this store and like most Homesense's the stock changes weekly. There were a lot of items for the house, some nice, some awfully hard to look at! The good thing about this Homesense is that there are a lot of items for pretty reasonable prices. I'd recommend going on a weekday as Merivale seemed like a zoo today and I hear it's like that on weekends.

I'm not sure if this store is currently open during the Covid-19 Pandemic or not, as this review is…read morefrom pre-Covid-19 times. This Giant Tiger is an Express Store, which means it's much smaller than regular Giant Tigers. It feels a bit small and dingy, and is essentially a discount convenience store. The regular Giant Tigers are discount stores, similar to the now defunct Bargain Harold's in Toronto, or Bi-Way (which shut down, but I heard they will re-open a slightly re-branded store on Orfus Rd in Toronto (it will be called "Bi-Way $10 Store")). So the quality of the clothing there is not great, and the toys are usually not brand names, but they have inexpensive grocery items. Giant Tiger is a Canadian company and it originated here in Ottawa (the very first location was in the Byward Market, and it's still there). I've only been in this location a few times. It's not my favourite, but is convenient for the local residents.

I have a very special place in my heart for The Bay (it will forever be The Bay to me despite their…read morerecent-ish rebranding to "The Hudson's Bay") as it is the last standing department store from my childhood. Over the years, I have watched them all shutter, Simpsons, then Eaton's, then Sears. Even the discount department stores like Kresge, Woolco, Towers and Zellers, all gone. Only The Bay remains. Anyone remember The Bay Scratch and Save Days? Lol. Totally dating myself, haha. Anyway, The Bay is a department store with some higher end items and some more affordable items. Some of the flagship stores in larger cities like Toronto and Montreal have luxury items, but not the ones in Ottawa. This location at the Rideau Centre has a nicer selection than the locations at St. Laurent Shopping Centre or Bayshore Shopping Centre. This location also has a Forever 21 section (Forever 21 pulled out of the Canadian market a few years ago, so there are no free-standing brick and mortar stores in Canada, but their items can be found at select The Bay stores). It's where the Topshop section used to be before Topshop pulled out of Canada completely. This location has an optical that sells prescription glasses and contact lenses. There's also a Sunglasses Hut inside this The Bay location. There's also a hair salon called Hair Republic on the second floor, as well as a cafe on the main floor called Market X, but it is independently run, and the prices are high, it's not like the cafeteria that was at The Bay in downtown Toronto from days past (like 20 years ago, lol) that had affordable hearty meals for the downtown office workers, and the kids working a summer job downtown, like I was. Everything is vegan at Market X and it caters to the environmentally conscious well-heeled customer. Market X is where the Lindor Shop was before they closed. I like the mix of items available at The Bay. They sell lots of Canadiana, which make great souvenirs for tourists. They sell State and Main items, who doesn't want some Ketchup Chips socks and Poutine Christmas ornaments, right? Lol. This The Bay is actually across the street from The Rideau Centre, but it's connected by the bridge on the third floor. Street parking or paid parking lot parking only. No private free parking lot like at Bayshore or St. Laurent malls.

I have visited this store (Hudson's Bay now, but I always call it The Bay) a couple of times. The…read morefirst time was back in November 2015. I had a good chat with a woman in the HUE leggings section. I was wearing a pair of corduroy ones. I was literally a walking example of how comfortable they were and are. The Bay is a store that I used to frequent when I first joined the workforce. It gave me a $500 credit card and I managed to get a decent wardrobe for my business office attire. I also learned that it's a ripoff getting a departmental store credit card where interest rates go through the roof. I eventually paid it off and cancelled it. Anyway, The Bay had pretty good deals on Saturdays. I don't know if that's the case these days. I would buy items that are on sale rather than buy them at full price. This store had a nice selection of size 11 shoes. Some were quirky, such as lemon slip-on sneakers and Doc Martens with embroidered flowers on them. I like browsing around in this store, looking at women's clothing, cookware, and more. I recommend waiting for a sale, as some items are more expensive than they should be. (247)

TL;DR: Rossy is a Canadian chain. They are a discount store selling everything from household…read moreitems, clothes and food. Fun to poke around but I didn't find anything I wanted to buy. Rossy reminds me of stores like Giant Tiger and I'm really going to date myself by listing these other two, but whatever, lol, Bargain Harold's and BiWay! So basically they sell a lot of off-brand items. They sell some brand name products too, but common brands only, like the ones you would find at Dollar Stores or other discount stores. There are no luxury products here. I liked poking around because it felt like a treasure hunt, lol. I didn't find any treasures though. Maybe on a future visit. This location is in the Galeries Aylmer Shopping Centre. (151)

Subject: Formal Complaint - Order Delivered to Wrong Address and Refusal to Refund or Replace…read more I am writing to express my extreme disappointment regarding the handling of a recent Walmart online grocery order. My family has been a loyal Walmart customer for many years. Last week, we placed a grocery order that was marked as delivered at 6:19 AM on Wednesday, June 3. However, the order was not delivered to our address. The delivery photo provided by the driver clearly shows that the groceries were left at a completely different residence. Upon discovering the issue, my wife immediately contacted Walmart Customer Service. Rather than resolving the problem, we received the following response: "After careful review of your account(s) history, we've determined your account is in violation of our Terms of Use with respect to our returns service. As a result, we closed your account. You may continue to purchase directly from your local Walmart store." This response is both shocking and unacceptable. Walmart's driver delivered the order to the wrong address, yet Walmart has chosen to treat us as though we are at fault. We have neither received the groceries we paid for nor a refund of our money. As a result, our family has been without the groceries we purchased for over a week while Walmart continues to retain our funds. At a time when the cost of food is placing significant strain on Canadian families, it is deeply troubling that a company of Walmart's size would refuse to correct an obvious delivery error. The delivery photo itself demonstrates that the order was not delivered to our home. This is not a disputed delivery--it is a documented delivery mistake. Despite this evidence, Walmart has refused to escalate the matter, issue a refund, or arrange for a replacement delivery. I am requesting that Walmart immediately review this case, acknowledge the delivery error, and provide either: A full refund for the undelivered order; or A replacement order delivered to the correct address. I also request that this matter be escalated to a manager or Executive Customer Relations team for review. Customers should not be held responsible for mistakes made by Walmart's delivery service. I expect Walmart to do the right thing and resolve this matter without further delay. Sincerely, Chantale Portelance We have filed with consumer protection and involved CTV Ottawa consumer alerts
