I LOVE books and I could buy up the whole store if I had the money. I have been shopping at this book store for the last 10 years and I am always pleasantly surprised. This small little gem is hidden away in the depths of Bentall Centre which, if…More »
This place can be a little overwhelming as there are so many books but the nice thing, compared to other used book stores, is it is easy to browse through and find a section you are looking for. The owner can come across as cranky but he is very…More »
OMG and I thought the Costco in Burnaby was a nightmare lol. I was sooo overwhelmed when I walked in here. My friend and I just meandered through and went directly to the beer aisle lol! I am sensing a theme on my grocery store trips in the USA…More »

I love London Drugs and the experience at this location was no different. I was in the area and needed to pick up a few things, so in I walked. What I really like about the whole London Drugs experience is that almost all of them are laid out in…More »
Can you believe that until this past weekend I had never been in a Fred Meyer before? It sort of reminded me of Superstore but nicer colours AND a booze aisle!
My friend and I were wandering the beer aisle, as she needed some beer for the boyfriend…More »
This is my dirty little secret! I love going here just to browse and see what is new. It has everything someone on a budget needs. If i need a number of items then I will take the time to drive here. Usually the savings doesn't outweight the gas…More »
I am a crazy fan of London Drugs. I go in for one item and come out with 20 and I know I am not the only one that does that LOL. It's almost like IKEA to me. Go in and spend hours wandering up and down the aisles, just making sure there isn't…More »
Have been to a couple of Targets and this one is tiny in comparison. I didn't find anything I liked but really I was meandering anyway. It's always very clean in here though and the staff are friendly.
I LOVE beauty products and find that there are a couple of things I can find here that I can't at LDs (London Drugs) but very few. I find them a little over priced but the location in the mall is great. Last time I was there I picked up ear…More »
Not the most impressive library, especially in comparison to the VPL but usually has what I need. Recently they have been reorganizing some of the ways they do things, for example most of the holds are no longer behind the counter, so it seems a…More »
This past weekend my fiance and I were looking for an inexpensive buffet for our dining room until we could save for one we really wanted and the London Drugs by our house had one we had liked. Unfortunately it was no longer in stock so off we went…More »
This Wal-Mart always seems dirty and disorganized. It also seems to be out of a lot of items or they just don't carry much. I have been here a number of times and it never seems to have what I need.
The good thing about Wal-mart is that a lot of…More »

OMG! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this library! When I was studying for my CSC I would go here and just immerse myself in my studies.
Now if you are on one of the lower floors it can be a bit noisy so you really should go to floor 5 and up to study.

Bookstores
Neighbourhood: Fairview Slopes
So the other day my doctor recommended a book that normally I would have to order online as it's not usually available in a book store. However, I decided to try this place out as it was right across the street. I was pleasantly surprised as they…More »
I LOVE books and I LOVE to read. I am sad that the eReader is taking away from real books even though I have one. I always stop at a book store when I am by one. So I was out this way and I had to go look in.
I am used to large selection even at…More »
