I love me some clothes...
See All Lists
1. Swimco Metropolis at Metrotown
Who likes shopping for swimwear? Lets see a show of hands. Yep, that's what I thought! No one has put their hand up because swimwear shopping is what one may consider torture.
Last week I needed to waste some time after having my eyes dilated at…More »
2. David's Bridal
I have never been the type of girl that fantasized about their wedding but now that I am planning one I am getting like a kid in a candy store. In Canada and most bridal stores, the cost of a wedding dress is crazy obscene so I decided to check out…More »
3. SPCA Thrift Store
Who doesn't like helping the animals of the SPCA and this is a way to do it and get any retail therapy needs out. I also like to donate items that are sellable here.
I have found some cute outfits, books, bags and the like here. There's also the…More »
4. Grand Central Consignment
WOW! This place was fantastic! I have been off ill and gained a few pounds and didn`t want to look sloppy so I decided to check this place out after looking up plus sized clothing stores in the Vancouver area. I was super stoked when I walked in…More »
5. Dressbarn Dressbarn Women
Well if you are like me, you like a deal for your clothes that actually fit. I have made my way down to Burlington a few times and am NEVER disappointed with the Dress Barn. They have some nice clothes for all sizes, which can be a bit harder to…More »
6. Warehouse One
I have bought a couple pairs of jeans here and a few tops. I wasn't estatic about the jeans as they wore out very quickly, however I am in love with the dressy tops.
7. Prime Time Sports
Sports shops are always over priced so I was excited to see that the Rugby shirt my fiance wants for Christmas at 40% off, I was hooked. I have been in here before and they are always friendly and yesterday was no different.
I admit that I drool…More »
8. GumDrops
I really enjoy this store. They even have rain coats for my dog, which is a plus. The only down side has been finding boots that I like in my size. They never seem to have them lol. I have been waiting since Christmas to spend my gift card. This…More »
9. Queensborough Landing
I kept the economy afloat down at Queensborough Landing lol! There are so many things for the mind, body and savings soul here. First, the Walmart which is my dirty secret but hell, can't go wrong for some of the prices. There is alsoa Best Buy…More »
10. Walmart
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 »
11. H&M
Coquitlam, BC V3B 5R5
(604) 945-2781
Categories:
Women's Clothing,
Children's Clothing
I used to LOVE H&M. I first experienced this place in Toronto but have been bitterly disappointed with the store for the last few years. Their clothes never fit JUST right. At least not on me. I think they have become too North American and left…More »
12. Target
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.
13. Wal-Mart
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 »
14. Army & Navy Department Store Ltd
New Westminster, BC V3L 1B1
(604) 526-4661
Categories:
Sporting Goods,
Department Stores
This place is very basic and will sometimes shop here. Mostly for shirts, a jacket here and there and ALWAYS the annual shoe sale. If you haven't realized from my other reviews, I am a shopaholic lol. I just recently went to the shoe sale and…More »
15. Lougheed Town Centre
Hmmmm, a mall, is a mall, is a mall. Honestly nothing jumps out at me when I think of Lougheed Mall except for the occasion stop to the WalMart or the Bay. Parking is a gong show but I can usually find something.
16. The Salvation Army
What I do like about the thrift store is the selection of books and some unique kitchen wares. Sometimes you can find a shirt or skirt that's a good deal but for me that rarely happens. What I do like about the location is the building. I like the…More »
17. Banana Republic
Vancouver, BC V7Y 1A1
(604) 688-1630
Category:
Women's Clothing
Neighbourhood: Downtown
So who doesn't like to spend free money??? I love it and when I got some from my company in the form of a gift card for Pacific Centre Mall, off I went. I don't normally shop at Banana Republic because I find most of their items way over priced but…More »
18. Jacob
Vancouver, BC V7Y 1K8

Categories:
Lingerie,
Accessories,
Women's Clothing
Neighbourhood: Downtown
For years I was not a fan of Jacob. I had a very bad experience with the staff and almost left without the item I really, really wanted. So when I went in last night, I went with very, very, very low expectations. With my expectations so low, one…More »
19. Old Navy
Way back when I used to be a big fan of Old Navy and then something happened. They didn't offer much in different product than the day before. Basically I see the same clothes come in and out each season. Is there even a season with Old Navy?
Anyway,…More »
20. Winners
I would say that they are a 3.5 worthy business. This was on my rain jacket mission day and they have a great selection. I had already been to the winners in Surrey and purchased a great jacket but I wanted to see if maybe they had something I…More »
21. Winners
Why are all Winners a pit? Seriously, they are NEVER clean and organized. This one is rarely busy so the selection is better but it's also never clean. For an OCD person like me it's annoying and overwhelming when trying to shop.
22. Ricki's
I have been coming here for the last few years. They always have a wonderful selection in all sizes and for the vertically challenged, such as myself.
The staff are always friendly and I can't wait to go back when dress season is back. Did I…More »
