La Cache’s Hidden Location
La Cache, April Cornell’s vision with its hippie look of clothing and furnishings has been a fixture on Greene Ave in Montreal, and then got sprinkled throughout the US. Troubled times forced closings of 79 of the US stores and now 29 of the Canadian ones but all is not lost. Though they have filed for bankruptcy protection, you can still clean up the deals at the clearance location mentioned in my “Smart Shopping Montreal” book. One would think that all of that merchandise has to make its way over there eventually so there’s a silver lining for us in this black cloud.
You have always been able to find leftovers, overstocks, seconds and last year’s lines here. What is hard to find is this odd spot. If you have a good map or GPS, you’ll be able to buy linens and pillowcases, tableware at 30% to 50% less and lots of off- season April Cornell clothes and jewelry (women and girls) up to 75% off.
