“I bought a fire table, an umbrella and a patio set! My mini patio looks amazing with flowers! I will fully enjoy it now! Thank you Big Box Outlet And the team Khadija, Haley and Ken! I am adding to this message as I am not able to write another review: Corry, the manager, did the right thing by applying a discount on the luxury bag I bought which had already started to show damage due to its very delicate fabric. It would have stayed in the store for many months and years and would end up more damaged! The manager from Mission store is not very professional, she contacted Corry and causes unnecessary trouble for him. What is even more unprofessional is that she prefer to keep a bag in the store for months, moving it from place to place, which caused damage because of the careless handling and moving it many times.The same bag is selling half price on another website. Despite the visible wear and damage and inflated price, she still refused to offer any discount. Managers need to train employees need to resell those expensive luxury items with discount instead of moving them and damage them and keeping them on the shelves like all other items.”
“Went in looking for something specific and after wondering around looking for it, a staff member ku dly asked me if I was looking for something specific. I told her what I was seeking and she promptly told me where to find it with clear and precise directions. After paying for it I walked out happy and satisfied.”
“Attention,CEO/Head manager/Owner. I'm writing to you today to ask you to please give the highest respect, recognition and endless accolades to an amazingly great professional, Sarah. I called Dollarama & had spoken with this amazing lady who assisted me with a very important order that I was wanting to confirm with a large quantity of liquids, as I had a serious operation on my throat. She checked the stock for me and confirm that she had a great amount that would be suitable for my order, she was absolutely amazing... I used to be a mystery shopper in my younger days when I wasn't soooo sick, and I can tell you first hand that great professionals like Sarah are truly hard to find and even harder to keep I trust that Dollarama knows that they have an amazingly bright Jim in their hands, like The brightest diamond in our universe.. we truly appreciate this amazing lady, not only because she went above and beyond and represented Dollarama 110%, however most importantly she truly cared about me as a customer and she honestly cared about my dilemma that I was thankful for having Sarah there to help me with her excellence in customer service. Maria (mother) and son Nick who is in charge of the instacart order that was placed on the day of this great experience with the amazing professional, Sarah.”
“Have been shopping here for a couple of years.Used to buy cold pop for a low price,then started taking advantage of discounted price items. When I accidently left my bank card in the machine they put it in a safe place and saved it for me.”
“Great shopping experience at Dollarama! The store has a good variety of products at affordable prices. The staff is helpful, and the store is well-organized. Definitely a good place for budget-friendly shopping!”

Instead, Burlington is creating wider walkways, organized sections, and clearer signs to help shoppers find what they need.
