this is one of those sweet little hidden neighborhood spots that sells rad stuff for real cheap. I visit this spot to get dvd's for killer prices , and every once in a while they will have some awesome blu-rays in stock ( although they aren't that cheap compared to the dvd's )
you can also find some nice kids flicks and toys here - cheap , as well as the shelves of old outdated video games on the back shelf that occasionally has a banger on it. they got lots of puzzles and other weird odds and ends here too ... need a 2010 calendar ? :)
great spot to waste a few minutes as you browse the racks looking for something to catch your eye. i like to buy a couple movies from here rather than spend big money on new releases .. and besides - they all end up here eventually :) -

This little gem is hidden inside sketchy Kingsgate Mall. Like most everything in Kingsgate, it's not too fancy but it's really cheap. I guess the rent there must be reasonable, because nothing at Lely's feels overpriced.
Probably my favourite part of this "entertainment" store is the selection of DVDs and video games for $5 or less. Last time we were there we found Playstation 2 and GameCube games for $2.99, and a handful of great movies we'd been meaning to buy - for $4.99 or less each. What a deal!
I do remember going in there once and not finding Scrabble, which is weird for a game store. The selection of items for sale seems random at times. I feel it's best not to go in there looking for something specific but rather treat it as a treasure hunt. -

We were on our way to visit some friends and their new baby. We hadn't had a chance to find a gift, and stumbled upon Lely's. We found an adorable onesie - actually Made in Canada! - at a reasonable price. Was surprised and impressed. Very glad we found it!

Really like this cute little store. It has lots of board games, children's books and very cheap DVDs. Definitely a good store to check out if you need to buy a last-minute gift.

Lely's carries educational materials for kids. They have lots of books and some DVDs and toys. You can usually find some pretty good prices here. Worth checking out if you are in the Kingsgate Mall.
