Winners

Fast cashiers and store is pretty organized considering it’s always busy here. I usually leave with a purchase :)

I just haven’t had any luck whatsoever at this Winners. There never seems to be great deals to be found, period (or at least I’ve never found anything and that’s usually my thing).
I’ve also looked for shoes at this Winners several times this year (I am in NEED of some ankle boots as well as flats) and it’s not even that they don’t have anything in my price range — they just don’t have anything.
I think this might be the only Winners in Edmonton that I’ve walked into more than once and never bought anything from… just saying…

This is always one of my favourite locations to go to since HomeSense is attached, which makes this store super large! I found several items there yesterday, including a wide selection of dresses. I also saw a beautiful shift dress from Diane von Furstenburg that was $ 180 as compared to over $ 500 online. I was tempted to buy it on top of the other handful of dresses I found but alas my conscience told me to put it back. The lady at the fitting rooms (Susan), was lovely, friendly and pleasant and made my shopping experience at this Winners stand out! (Keep up the great work Susan!). The checkout process was smooth as there were plenty of ladies at the register so I didn’t have to wait very long.

The is the best Winners/​Home Sense location. The housewares department is great and love the linens. If you need new towels, this is the location. Also like the very large range of bags.

Not a whole lot here in terms of ‘trendy’ selections and customer service is fairly poor.

I’ve always thought of Winners as a store for women, or perhaps men with a waist of 32 inches or smaller.
However, In a mere month of bicycle commuting, I’ve forgotten essential clothing items. Thankfully, this Winners is located within a 10 minute bike ride of my office. When I forgot my pants, I only found one pair in my size, but thankfully they fit comfortably. Likewise, I only found one appealing shirt in my size when I forgot my shirt.
The pants were a bargain at $ 30, but the shirt was a bit overpriced, also at $ 30.
Probably the most annoying thing about this Winners is the waiting time to purchase anything. I went once at 9AM and waited about 10 minutes to buy my shirt. Lunchtime was even worse — I waited over 20 minutes. The checkout system consists of one big, long line, and a bunch impulse purchase items along the way. This isn’t a store to go to in a hurry.

WOW. This is a great Winners! I love all the home décor stuff they have. I could just walk up and down every single one of these isles, and picture it all in my house. The handbag selection is fantastic. Same with the shoe dept, although I have seen a better selection at other Winners for shoes. Ladies and Men’s clothing here is of very good quality and keeping up with the trends of the seasons. Give yourself extra time when you come here, you’ll need it. So much to see.

Probably the biggest Winners in the city. Great prices, great selection, but a bit hard to navigate. We were looking for socks, and could not find them (we looked near the shoe section, where one would assume they were). However, if you are willing to dig around a bit, there is no limit to what you can find. They have an excellent, streamlined checkout system — the lines seems long, but it moves quickly.

I’ve never been a Winners fan; I don’t really enjoy sifting through racks of clothing and not be able to find anything decent at a good price. I came into this Winners recently and was surprised to find some great buys and quality clothes for a Christmas gift for a little boy. They have lots of brand name items for good prices. I didn’t look through the adult clothes though, I didn’t want to bother fighting the crowds.
The houseware section has some great buys as well. Sometimes I can find good little Christmas food gift items. This time I was able to get a great board game for about half the retail price.
The line ups seemed very long and scary but they did move pretty quick with 6 cashiers working. Next time I’m in the area I will go back and check out what deals I can get on quality items.

Why did I always avoid Winners? I always though it was a place filled with clothing that nobody wanted, but I was pleasantly surprised at the selection that was offered at this location. I guess that the stock varies between store to store, yet it was not hard to find some Calvin Klein jeans for under $ 30.
I actually found a lot of ski gear that I used on a recent ski trip (under armor style) and a lot of good jogging equipment. What surprised me were the prices as well. They are far below retail, but it can be easy to continue shopping and racking up your bill total.
One thing I did not like about the store was it’s lack of customer service. I hardly saw anyone there, but I hear this is typical for any Winners. It’s also a trade-​off to cheaper prices too. You pick which one you like more.

This is one of my favourite Winners locations in Edmonton, because it has some of the best selection. I stopped by the other day because I needed a creamer, and although they didn’t have one in the shape of a cute cow like I wanted, they had quite a few that it took me awhile to decide.
This location has a fantastic clearance section in the far right corner of the kitchenware department. You’ll always find something here, whether it’s pots and pans on clearance, or a nifty teapot, or a couple of beautiful wine glasses salvaged from a broken set. It’s a good spot to check out before you scope out the rest of the store.
They’re starting to display their Christmas stuff as well (like most other places), and already I have a mental list of what I’m going to come back to get, once I get my tree. They do have trees here, but they’re a bit expensive, and most of the ones I saw were already pre-​decorated in some way. I prefer to decorate my own, it’s the best part anyway.
I think they’ve expanded their beauty department too, because I don’t remember it being that big last time I was here. Apparently you can get your skincare products here now, which is pretty cool. They’ve got it all!
