What's New - Travellers DeckTravellers Deck is a deck of cards that lists the 100 best places to eat and shop in Vancouver.  Each card has a mini-bio of the store or restaurant complete with the address, phone number, price range and hours.  The best part about these decks is that each card is also a coupon for great discounts and even some freebies!

The deck is color coded based on location: Downtown, South Main & Cambie Village, South Granville & Granville Island, Commercial Drive and Kitsilano.  It’s filled to the brim with fabulous places to eat and shop, stores you’ve heard of and some you haven’t.  These cards are a great way to add to your shopping repertoire.  Instead of heading out to the same places you always do, pull out your deck, shuffle the cards and pick your destination. (Just don’t forget to bring the cards with you, treat them the same as you would a regular coupon).

This decadent deck of discounts includes stores like: Gum Drops, Plenty, Gravity Pope, Zebra Club, Medina Café, The Block, Nood, 212, Vasanji, BeautyMark, Glowbal, Fine Finds, Chambar, Sophie’s Cosmic café and about 85 others!  Travellers Deck is the perfect gift for anyone in your life, including yourself!  It costs around $12 and can be found in many stores scattered throughout the city like Chapters, Fine Finds, The Bay, Country Furniture and a few others.  For more information visit www.travellersdeck.com.

What's New - The CrossThe only thing saving me from going bankrupt is that my favourite stores close at normal hours.  Well now I’m doomed, The Cross Decor and Design will be open until midnight during the Olympics! That’s right from now until February 28th The Cross will be open from 10am until midnight. They’ll have TVs in store, so you can catch up on the games, while you buy oodles of Olympic memorabilia.   Check out their hats, scarves, stuffed mascots, bags, postcards, and of course home decor items.
