The manager said, "The package is open, the product is defective, and we cannot resell it. Give him a store credit." I was stunned. Unless I missed some major new scientific breakthrough, I am pretty sure a person has to open a product package in order to see it and try it. Am I wrong? And another thing - why is it my fault that the product is defective and they cannot sell it. I was told, "That is our return policy." And that was it. He shut me down. Very clever store policy. It is crafted to favour them and screw us. I took the store credit. I'll spend it. And then? I will never, EVER shop at Canadian Tire EVER again. Great job! Now I know why people call it 'Crappy' Tire.

The store has taken over the entire space Rona used to be, making it incredibly large. With slight exaggeration, you could get 10k steps in just looking around. There are a wide variety of goods being offered, and the prices are often even cheaper than Dollarama (though some stuff is kinda overpriced in comparison, like $30 kitchen shelves?) so I guess they win some lose some. I found some really good deals for plates, kitchenware, hair accessories, stationary, and foam rollers. Since the place is so big, it's hard to find a worker, and even if you find someone, they likely will not know the answer. It's okay though... explore away!

We saw unique items like wheels for lawnmowers and bikes. There are also cosmetics, housewares, stationery supplies, etc. The store is quite messy, though, with many aisles that need cleaning and reorganizing, and imo, the quality is much lower than Dollarama or Dollar Tree. The parking lot is huge, and the store wasn't overly busy for a weekend afternoon.

This was my first time going to Giant Tiger and I honestly loved it. I didn't really know what to…read moreexpect, but it ended up being such a fun little store to walk through. The store itself is pretty spacious and well organized. It's not super fancy or anything, but it's clean and easy to navigate, which I liked. They have a mix of everything (clothes, home stuff, snacks, random finds) so you can just walk around and browse for a while. What really stood out to me was how many dupes they had. I had seen a video online highlighting all the cool things they sell at Giant Tiger and so I was influenced to go check it out. However, I wasn't expecting to see so many cool items. There were so many items that reminded me of more expensive brands, but for way cheaper! Prices overall are really reasonable, and you can definitely find some solid stuff if you take your time looking around. It's one of those places where you go in for one thing and end up finding a bunch of random things you didn't even know you needed. The staff were also so nice and useful in helping me find items around the store! Overall, I had a really good first experience. I'd definitely go back again just to see what else I can find.

I first discovered Uncle Terry's from the Ex. From their name and branding it gives an impression…read morethat they've been around for a while (give me a bit of Honest Ed's feel, I don't know why) but it's actually been about 2 years and this location near Kensington Market being their newest. When you come in, it does give a slight attic smell, which I don't mind. They told me they usually restock on Thursdays and the other location by Sterling Road usually carries even more inventory. I purchased a shiatsu massager and back up Aukey earphones that were new in package from the Ex. However, the earphones didn't work. The great thing is they are one of the few or probably only liquidators that I know that allows for a 7 day return if there's an issue. Normally most discount liquidators I've been to, it's pretty much the final sale. I wasn't able to visit within 7 days, but did send them an email with the issue with the earphones so they extended the warranty for me to come in within the end of the month to get store credit or exchange, which I'm so grateful for. Apparently they sold hundreds of those earphones and only a few came back with issues. I was able to drop by yesterday after work and decided to exchange for another shiatsu massager for my in-laws. What I appreciate about this spot is that it's relatively organized in shelves with multiple copies of an item. There are bargain bins too for $5 if you really want to search for any deals and treasures. I much prefer than other liquidators where usually things are thrown in bins and you don't know exactly what it is until you open it. The staff there was also super patient and friendly. Definitely if you're in the area peek in and see if you score any deals. They will be moving back inventory from the Ex today and the pricing seems to be the same. Though they might offer tax off discounts with cash at the Ex but not at the store.

Like any Costco, they don't always continue to carry the same items so sometimes if you fall in love with something you might be outta luck the next time you go to buy it in bulk (happens to me all the time). Typical Costco. Massive and busy. I like it better than the one by Hwy 7 and 407 in Vaughan... Probably because it's my "home Costco" though.

However I never got the respect of getting a store manager. This has also been reported to the Cloverdale Guest Services. I am also a 65 yr old senior lady who got yelled at.

I always check here, before anywhere else, for great Children's Toys.

All boxstores are spread out fairly far apart that it would take some time to walk to each one. I did like this Winners. When I was in high school, I wore a couple of pairs of Tretorn tennis shoes. The problem for me back then was the the largest size that Tretorn made for women was a size 10. I needed a size 11. Instead, I ended up dipping into wearing men's Tretorn shoes. I ended up getting the logo in navy blue and white. Not exciting! My friend and I hit the women's shoe section. She found a cute, glittery pair of boots that fit her perfectly! She found them to be comfortable, even though she wouldn't be caught dead going on a date with them on. I feel that she is my lucky charm whenever we go to a Winners together. I found a fun pair of Tretorns in a size 11. They were patterned and they fit more comfortably than I recall. The footbed is far better than it used to be. I bought them without hesitation. This store is clean, bright, and decent, including the washrooms. The woman who helped me cash out was cheerful and upbeat.There wasn't a huge lineup on a Saturday afternoon.

It's a loft-like space with lots of natural light and really well decorated. One thing that set it apart immediately, is it doesn't have that thrift store smell. They're true to their word that they're only selecting good quality items. Sure, some of the items are perhaps a bit plain, but you don't have to take too long to find a few things you'll like. It's certainly not the case of searching for a diamond in the rough. I imagine woman will like the place even more since about 80% of the floor space is for them. There were several shoppers there and they seemed to have no issue picking out great stuff too. Also, prices are GREAT! Anyone who's 'vintage' shopped in places like Kensington Market will know that things can still have relatively higher prices. My items were incredibly inexpensive, including a Banana Republic shirt which showed virtually no signs of wear for $10. I found out at the counter that this is actually a franchise as part of a fairly large chain (which I hadn't previously heard of). Regardless, they're a very unique and welcome edition to the city.
