Even tho people think Winners are all the same, let me tell you that this one is different. It's actually the best one out there. I have been to probably all winners in Laval and Montreal and i always come back to this one. I don't know why, but they always have the best merchandise ever. I mean, you will always end up buying something from there. Other Winners are good but not as good as this one.

It's a Winners, you know, it is what it is. But for what it is, if they have what you need, it's…read morekind of awesome. I needed some exercise clothes and some clothes for a camp trip and figured I'd pop in here before heading to MEC down the street and honestly, I found everything I needed for a quarter of the price. Of course they don't have any specialty equipment, and some of it is luck, for sure, depending on what rolls through the door. Winners gets brand name and fairly high quality apparel and home decor but they it in get piles of random sizes and colours or lines that just didn't sell enough to escape the bargains. For athletic clothes it was great. I found lined, water-wicking pants good for winter camping or jogging in the cold, merino wool long johns that I may not take off till July, high wasted super comfy and thick leggings, and cuuuute sports tops. It's important to feel cute if you're going to be sweaty. I also found a bunch of stuff I considered buying for the house but decided to wait. Worth checking out for the prices though, especially if you;re already in the area to check out a movie or MEC or the Marche Central.

Need to decorate your pad?…read more Just come here. Seriously this is a gigantic Winners and Homesense all-in-one location at the Place Versailles mall, literally steps away from Radisson metro station. Like all Winners and Homesense, it can be hit or miss but I've walked away with more hits than misses at this particular location. You'll find all sorts of unique items for your home if you like to decorate like I do. Recipe books, rugs, olive wood cutting boards, vanity mirrors, hand-blown glass vases from Poland, you'll find all of that here and much more. I think because this location is farther away from the city center, it seems to stock better stuff. Not a big deal. If you're on the metro, it is about 20 minutes from downtown, but keep your ear buds on or read a book and you'll be here in no time. Also, if you like picking up and collecting quality recipe books, this Homesense is the best place for it. I have picked up classics like the 2 volume boxed set of "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" by Julia Child, the classic of Italian cooking "The Silver Spoon", "The Gourmet Cookbook Vol. I and II", all of it in hardcover and for a fraction of what you would pay for them anywhere else. The Julia Child set I often see online for $60+. I picked it up here for $30. It's always worth stopping here and looking because stock changes all the time here and you'd be very surprised what you'll find.

I never write reviews. If I could give this store a zero rating for their customer service, I…read morewould. I must say, this is one of the worst experiences I remember having in a boutique store. I have been shopping in this store for many years now and spent lots of money. I usually buy my gifts early, especially during Christmas so that I can take advantage of the selection. The owners Marina, and the other senior woman that works with her with the blond hair would not do an even exchange for a Christmas item. I had purchased 2 ornaments by mistake, 5.99$ each, and all I asked is if I could exchange one ornament for a Christmas napkin which was the same price. Its not like they were going to lose any money. The owner and the the blond senior lady at the cash both said no, no exchanges on Christmas items. She said we have never bent the rules in 30 years and we are not about to do so now. Wow, what great customer service! Especially considering the fact that on boxing day, a student employee told me to come back after boxing day, since they don t do Christmas exchanges on boxing day, which is completely understandable. Its not the money that bothered me, its the principle, and their horrible attitude. The owner and the blond woman that works with her were both extremely rude, they seem bothered, and unfriendly. The other day when I was waiting in line for boxing day shopping at their store, I was talking to another customer waiting, she said, the store has gone down hill, and I could not agree more. If the business is too much, and adjusting your inventory for a straight exchange for the same price is too much of a hassle, not to be discriminatory, but maybe its time to pass on the torch to a younger generation. These women are stuck in their old fashion ways of doing things. They need to realize they need to up their customers service with the times, be more flexible, and make exceptions when it makes sense, in order to keep their customers happy and coming back. Remember word of mouth gets around. If not, it may be time to retire, as I noticed during my Halloween shopping at their store, they ( when I say they, I mean the owner, and that blond senior woman that works there), they looked fed up of customers already. When I asked one when the Christmas decorations were coming out, she just nodded her head and rolled her eyes, like she was saying in her head, let me get through Halloween first. I went across the street to the new store that opened called the Zone Maison ( this is a small chain boutique store, they have others in Montreal), and what a difference in the staffing. The employees and owner really care about their customers, they have a positive attitude and they are more flexible. with their policies. This may be one of the reasons for the store owners frustrations and bad attitude. For many years, Le Panier was the staple store in the Pointe -Claire village, now they have a competitor that sells beautiful items, and has friendlier staff with more flexible policies. Do yourself a favor, its not worth the drive if you live outside of the west island, their Christmas selection this year, was horrible, compared to previous years, another client in the store noticed this as well. The owner blamed it on supplier issues, while Maison Zone, that sells similar items didn't seem to have supplier issues. The owner and the blond senior woman that works with her, (I don t know which one was worse, I would say the blond woman had a serious chip on her shoulder) needs to put a smile on her face, and pretend at least to show she likes her job. Life is too short to be this inflexible and bitter when you are running a business! Remember things don 't last forever in life, and its your customers that made you! Ps. Please read the low class review on google reviews, with the comment about the shopping bag! This store is not deserving of our business, if they continue to be this inflexible, especially with their customers that have been giving them our money for so many years! Shame on you!

While having…read morea girl's day out on the South Shore of Montreal I was more than delighted when it was suggested we go look at antiques. We stopped in at Boutique Aux Mirabelles and it was the best part of my day. This store is full of beautiful country style furniture, linens, housewares and nick nacks. There were so many things to look at we spent over an hour in this quaint house-turned-boutique. I didn't end up buying anything that day but my two friends found some cute little items. The only downside is that some of the things are a bit overpriced for what they were, such as small simple things that one could easily make themselves - but this is coming from an avid crafter and diy nerd. They did have a lovely selection of handmade beeswax candles and beauty items that smelled absolutely delicious. I can't wait to come back here next time I am in Quebec.

I've been going to this annual Christmas craft fair for the past 3 years and have always found…read moresomething special. I don't consider myself to be a crafty person, but I appreciate things that are well done, quality pieces made with love. This is probably the largest and best craft show in the Montreal area, featuring handmade goods from a variety of artisans - whether you're looking for jewelry, knitwear, fur apparel, kitchenware, soaps or food/drinks - there is something for everyone. Best sellers return year after year, but there are lots of newcomers at every edition as well. This fair seems to cater to an older crowd, partly because everything is quite pricey, plus, some of the designs in terms of home decor and fashion aren't appropriate for all age groups. However, if you venture off into the gourmet food area, this is where you can find some of the more universally pleasing gift ideas. You'll be able to sample all kinds of fine goodies, like duck pâté, cheeses, nougat, chocolates, macarons, ciders and wine. What I really love is the free entry and convenience of location. Super accessible in the heart of downtown, connected to the metro and bus terminal. Place Bonaventure is the ideal spot to host this event. If you feel like shopping for unique items in a festive environment, this is it!

TL;DR/The Short Version: Large, but busy and crowded store…read more More luxury brands here than other downtown Winners locations. The Longer Version: This location is inside Place Montreal Trust. It's on the most lower level of the mall. Same level as the Food Court. It has the largest selection of luxury brands of all the downtown-ish Winners (more than the Alexis Nihon, Complexe Desjardins and Peel Winners). I spotted an Yves Saint Laurent bag for $2700. They had Gucci shoes, sunglasses and hats. Some Chloe, Ferragamo, and Valentino bags too. And other brands. Their luxury brands are locked up in glass displays so you have to get a staff member to unlock it for you. The contemporary brands like Coach, Michael Kors, Ted Baker, and Kate Spade are out and about for you to handle on your own. This location is large and has a jewelry section and children's clothing and shoes as well (these sections are the first to be cut in the smaller "urban concept" stores, and even though this location is urban it's definitely a full-sized store). It has the usual women's and men's clothing and shoes and housewares. It's also always busy and crowded. So my feelings about it are mixed. I love the size and large selection but I hate the crowds.

Secondly, there is not enough ventilation in those rooms so I feel like gagging and fainting going into one of them especially when the person before me didn't take a bath or has lower standards of hygiene. Thirdly, their choice of music is so cringe. Is it difficult to put easy listening music instead of that screeching they call music? Aside from that, they do have some good choices because it is a big store.
