Review from Aeryn L.

My husband and I had decided to wait for another two years before we do the BIG thing and attempt child rearing. At the moment we're just not ready, but... all of our friends are! In 2009 alone, five new little ones have or will be making their appearances amongst our friends and family.
The last baby shower that I had attended was a huge deal, 'cause the parents-to-be had a tough time conceiving. They tried for years and finally the miracle that they've been asking for occurred a little over eight months ago.
So last weekend I was a bit jumpy about what to get our good friends as a gift for their shower. Sure, clothes were fine and simple to find (and there's oodles of stuff for baby girls which is what they've been told they're having), but I was pretty sure that the mommy-to-be was going to have hordes of pink clothing to coo over from just about everyone else bringing presents along.
During our walk along the Junction Arts Festival, we had decided to pop into Snug As A Bug and see if there was anything "cool" to purchase as a gift.
We walked in, and the sales woman was all smiles and friendly behind the counter. She looked well-knowledged, so I felt comfortable walking up to her for help.
I told her that we were looking for some ideas for a girl baby-shower and she was truly helpful, walking us through the store and pointing out different items that could work as gifts.
As luck would have it, after the short walk, we ended up back at the cash register and found the perfect gift right behind the counter. I don't remember the exact name for it, but we wound up purchasing a car-seat cover that supposedly fits all models and acts like an additional car blanket for the winter months.
We're always conscious of bringing cloth bags with us (even before the 5 cent per bag deal), so we were prepared to bag the item to go; but the sales woman gave us one of their reusable bags for free. The really cool thing about the bag is that it has a $10 off coupon ($75 or more) printed right on it to use in store or online. I've heard that kids are expensive, so I gave the bag to the parents-to-be along with their gift!
We had a simple friendly experience, and walked away with exactly what we were looking for. I know that in the coming months I'll go there again for another well priced baby-shower gift.
And for anyone looking for a good place to shop really soon, I saw this ad on their website while writing this review:

Nice local Canadian made childrens clothing. I love the hats they have. The summer hats are not only cute by are practical for children and provide UV protection. The winter hats are cute too especially the ones that are animals. They have a beaver, moose, frog, cat, bunny, pig and others. The service is great I have always been greeted with a smile and offered help. They also have a cute chunky cat in the store, the kids love going in there to see him too!
