Ritual Doughnuts is closing in two weeks. That is unfortunate. They were arguably the best doughnuts in Calgary, imo

They did a whole bunch of earth work on that Deerfoot Meadows lot in 2021, and talk was that it was going to be a mega Canadian Tire (replacing the Southland location). But the lot has sat empty after all that grading was done.

Auto service and retail store certainly does sound like the long rumoured Canadian Tire

That's interesting. It feels like the Lammle's in Chinook has been in that spot forever.

I guess I haven't been to Chinook in a long time, but it used to be in the south end of the mall next to the entrance to the bowling alley close to Chapters.

Every CP member should know this as it was right by the Orange Julius.

Exactly... The only reason I know there's a Lammle's at Chinook is because I have kids hahaha

The Lammle’s in Chinook has been closed for a little while now. Makes sense now I guess.

Allegedly, Saks Fifth Avenue in Chinook is going to be announcing soon that they're closing.

That's a surprise to no one. The store is deserted and depressing. It closes every day at 6PM instead of the 9PM mall close to save on paying staff.

Man I still miss Target in that location. Yes they weren't great when they started out but it got better and eventually it was good to have a discount dept. store/food retailer in Chinook.
