Hopefully someone puts the knife in Sears soon too.
I start looking for sharp objects if I have to spend more than 10 minutes in the Deerfoot Outlet Mall Sears.

What the hell is that place, anyways? I went to grab a pizza at Pizza Hut at Southland and Elbow dr the other night and saw the Fabricland had been replaced by a Giant Tiger.
My interest was piqued, as I couldn't see in any of the windows, but not piqued enough to go inside, but piqued enough to ask about it on a message board, but likley not piqued enough to check back in this thread for an answer.
Also, as I continued down the parking lot I saw the replaced Fabricland, which I assumed was gone forever, where the old Sports Swap used to be. I felt like the guys in Super Troopers when the cops are screwing with them. I got the hell out of that place as fast as I could.

Last week picked up.
2 Bananana Republic sweaters
3 Gap undershirts
2 Gap Button ups
1 Pair of Seven Jeans
Took a few of the items to get tailored and the total cost for everything, with the tailoring, came to just under $70.00.

Discount store that carries some pretty good deals from time to time. A cross between a Target, a Winners and a dollar store.

The one in Thickwood once it opened. The one downtown did have an A&W across from it... but then an A&W opened up across the street from the one in Thickwood.
Mmm thats odd, never realized that.
Fond memories.

As long as A&W still has breakfest in the North Hill Mall location the seniors will stay.
Ever been to that place before the rest of the stores open, it's a mini retirement community there! I had to go to the registry office there early one day and couldn't believe the seniors all lined up at A&W. I swear they buy 5 papers and they just get passed around all day until they go home and do it again tommorow.

I can't stop laughing at this name. I looked it up and it actually exists. I wasn't sure if you were making it up.

You can take the child from Thickwood, but you can't take the Thickwood out of the child?

Other than the fact it's in a location I'd rather not have lived in, I'd love to be a Thickwood alum.

Well in Calgary you can always go to the Northwest and Brent's Wood and Charles' Wood are both easily available to you.
Hell the whole Tri-wood area if you're into that sort of thing.

There is a joke to be made there, but I can't think of it.
Finn Wood?
Maybe that's it. I dunno.
