Your Dollar Store With More

Very odd location for a dollar store, but convienent none the less. I always pop in here when I want to grab a quick snack after coming out of the subway. Store is a lot larger than it looks from the outside. Some of the expiration dates are the products are a little questionable, but overall good place if you’re looking to grab something quick and be on your way. The store setup is like a disorganized dollarama.

This dollarstore is located on the lower level of Empress Walk, I am not sure if any people know about it, every time that I have wandered in while picking up some wine from the LCBO that is upstairs or some food from the Loblaws I have never seen very many people shopping in this store.
You have to make sure what you buy in here because some things you can find at the dollarama for less as they both carry very similar items, This store however has things that cost more then any dollarstore and with that more different types of items that they carry like for example you can buy a belt here, whereas I do not believe I have ever seen a belt of any kind at the dollarama…
The name really does suit it well, it very much is a dollarstore with more! Just make sure you do not overpay for things you can pick up elsewhere for less!

Bump up one star because other than Dollarama at Yonge/​Sheppard this seems to be the only dollar store on Yonge North of the 401. Seriously. Great location right in the Empress Walks complex, in the basement near the subway and Loblaws. It’s pretty big, lots of a variety. Prices are better on some items at Dollarama but for last minute stuff, pool toys when the niece/​nephew come over to use the condo pool, chocolate bars for a movie night, etc. this place works in a nice pinch.
You can even get keys made here although there’s a good chance they’re out of popular blank keys.
Lines always seem short, not like the Bataan Death March some Dollarama require.
People behind the counter seem to be fluent in English and generally cheerful.
