Entrepot/outlet stores in Montreal discussion

[MeMew]

Oh well, I have no car and rarely go anywhere farther than 7km from downtown (by bike) so most of these entrepot stores are out of my reach. But when I look at their advertisements in newspapers, magazines, etc., I am so tempted to try them out some time in the future. If anyone has visited any of them, please give me and other Montrealers your comments, suggestions, etc - much appreciated

3. Bo bebe - c'est pas achetable! very expensive place pretending to be a "warehouse type store"

They used to have decent prices then they renovated, expanded and are too pricey for my taste anyhoo.

oh no that's too bad about bo-bebe... i got the best deals there for furniture and stroller for DS 3 years ago...
- Goldtex is ok... furniture and stroller type stuff they only carry the expensive stuff... but has a great selection in clothing especially for special events such as baptism, weddings... at the back of the store you can find some great deals on liquidation stuff ( out of season or slightly defective).
- Bebe plus and Bebe depot plus = crazy expensive but really European stuff
- Jouets JRC great for kids 5 and up... lots of books and bigger kids toys... not so much for toddlers.

Hope that helps...
