Diamancel Warehouse Sale

I use their nail file and like it so much I buy them as gifts. They are having a 3-day warehouse clearance sale this week.

Q&A: Full Figure Women Fashion Boutique on Boul. St-Laurent

Monday, October 28th, 2013

Q: Not long ago I read of a boutique on St. Lawrence Blvd that caters to women  with full figure brands like Sigred Osen and Kliana and other well known brands but I lost the name and address. Do you know of it ?

A: It’s Oppens: 4828 boul. St-Laurent. From my Smart Shopping Montreal book: “Women with larger needs (sizes 14-26) are lucky to shop here in these pretty quarters, for they get personalized service with wardrobe coordination, offering lots of mix and match possibilities, and even jewelry to finish off the look.

Well known labels such as Linda Lundstrom, Eileen Fisher, Simon Chang, Kokomarina, Tara Vao, Franck Anna, Alain Weiz, Caty Lesca. They also carry Spanx to smooth you out, Sympli knits and Frascara jackets. A seamstress is available if you need one.”

Q&A: Socks

Sunday, October 27th, 2013

Q: I know in your other editions you had a place to stock up on socks and was wondering if this place still exists.

A: You have a good memory. That depot closed quite a few years ago. Right now you can shop at the flea markets which all have booths with socks.

You can find all these and more in my Smart Shopping Montreal book: One in Chomedey is Marche aux Puces, St -Martin on pg 123 or Boutiques Marcado on the South Shore pg121.

On pg 18, there’s Lingerie Hanna in the Plaza Pointe Claire off Highway 20 on St-John’s Blvd. It has similar merchandise to the ones in the flea markets but is in a mall with regular hours.

Q&A: Guerlain Sale

Saturday, October 26th, 2013

Q: When in November is the Guerlain sale?

I bought my mother’s favourite can’t-find-in-dept-stores Eau de Cedrat  (the only time I bought it was at Pharmaprix a decade ago) last year at their Greene Institut and I found out too late about their Lachine sale in your site after the deal was sealed. I don’t even know how to get there by public transport. Guerlain sends me pamphlets from Paris but no info for Montreal.

A: If you had taken a peek at my Smart Shopping Montreal book, there is a section called Seasonal Warehouse Sales. There are 15 pages of them. On page 33 is all the information for Guerlain in Montreal. Their phone # 514-363-0432  and www.guerlain.comand  They have sales in the Fall and Spring.

Q&A: Repairing Broken China

Friday, October 25th, 2013

Q: I dropped a piece of my china and it broke neatly into 4 pieces. Can you recommend somewhere to go for it to be fixed?

A: Mr. Fixit, 4652 boul. Decarie, Snowdon. Whenever something old breaks and you’re wondering “where do I go with this?”, this is the place to head to. Repairs and restoration to china, crystal, antiques, lamps, paintings, clocks, carved stone, ivory, alabaster, marble, soapstone, porcelain, bronze, silverware and objets d’art (gold leaf and papier mache too) are cheerfully taken care of.  www.themrfixit.com

Q&A: Second-hand stores near Old Montreal

Friday, October 25th, 2013

Q: You have a great site there. We are going to be in Old Montreal, are there any second-hand stores there?

Q: – The closest one found in my book would be La Boutique du Welcome Hall Mission, 4755B Acorn, open Mon-Fri 9-3. Another one, a  huge one is a healthy walk down Notre Dame: Armee du Salut Magasin d’Economie, 1620 Notre Dame ouest.

In my Smart Shopping Montreal book, there is a 20-page chapter of all the 2nd-hand stores in the city – high end and low end. Every October a list is put up on the Montreal Gazette website of the church sales.
