Card store

Rated this place:

Great selection of blank and written cards; great gifts (knick knacks, bath goodies, bags, baby gear, note books); and great wrapping paper. This is always my first stop for greeting cards.

Unique home accessories

Rated this place:

Fine - decorate your apartment or home with the ordinary furniture and the necessary appliances- but then go to this quirky store and spice it up with the funkiest/funniest little accessories like magnets, coffee table books, and even scented candles. I love these types of stores.

Quirky store

Rated this place:

Everything here ranges from scented bath products (like Miso Pretty! love the name!) and Burt's Bees samples to kitchy decor and sassy fridge magnets. I have ended up dragging many friends to this place and every single time we end up spending at least 20 minutes in there browsing and smiling to ourselves at all the cool stuff. Think Urban Outfitters with a twist.

Cute trinkets

Rated this place:

Lots of cute trinkets ... locally & Canadian made jewelry, cards, t-shirts. Not so much for myself, but definitely a place I keep in mind when buying little gifts for someone (aka fiance).

Who doesn't wanna make out? Seriously. Pick one of these up for V-Day, or save it for later. The folks at Outer Layer are committed to you locking lips with someone - these saucy little coupons are free. Help yourself by the cash.
