For the most part this is a great place. They have recently done some renos and it appears they have taken out some of the merchandise that I loved going in there for. It's gone a little downhill. Not sure if they have changed ownership or if it's…More »

Being a Canucks fan I was on a mission to find an Authentic Jersey but without the exorbitant price tag so this past week when I was in Bellingham I decided to check out Just Sports in Bellisfair.
Honestly, when I walked in I was expecting a barrage…More »
Stopped in here a few weeks ago and I was pleasantly surprised. It's elegant, funky and just the right thing for the neighbourhood. The owner is very friendly and it's definitely a pet friendly business which is key for me.
My favourite thing there,…More »

Pet friendly businesses (34)Hello yelper friends! If you are anything like me your dog (s) go everywhere with you and you hate leaving them in the car, so here is a list of pet friendly businesses. Just don't let them pee everywhere because it could ruin it for the rest of us! I heart my pets! |
Mary Kay (3)Since I am an Independent Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay, I figured I would share with you the pro and cons of hosting some events outside the home :)! Did that make sense lol? Basically these are places/businesses I come into contact while trying to build my business! |
Retail Therapy (69)When I am down and depressed I take myself shopping and I feel happy! |
4* (just a little something missing) (134)These are all great places but there was always something missing. Didn't make them horrible but didn't get them the coveted 5*!!! |
On the cheap! (58)Cheap is all in relation to the item and thus this list has many different price ranges BUT they are all cheaper than their competitors. I have also put in a few out of country items too :)! |
I love me some clothes... (22)I don't think a clothing list needs a description lol. |
Food, food & more food! (43)I love food! Here are some of my fav places to get my food on! |
The 5 Spot (85)5 stars only club! |
