I think it was located on the ramp to Zellers, but I’m probably wrong.

 

Actually, hang on a sec there. Did Toys & Wheels shift locations at some point during the later years? The mention of Bolen Books reminded me that the bookstore has been in (I think) three different locations over the decades?

The book store moved a bit.

But it started near the ramp. Right hand side before you descended the ramp. Might have been a crappy record store like Sam’s better or near it.

Yeah, the bookstore was down near Zellers at first, but then it moved way over toward the east end of the new wing (not the new new wing, but the late 1980s new wing, the exit of which would now be deep inside the mall as compared to the current exit by Sport Chek).

It was actually a fairly large store when it was in that old new wing.

Yes like at the dentist when I was a kid.

Your dentist sucks if they don’t have a toy bin now, mate.

My dentist had some kind of ceramic small toys as gifts.

Smart dentists give out candy after visits. It guarantees future business.

Dr Bruce Tranter at west side village is the best dentist I have ever seen, I’m sure I’ve paid for his car by now.

No toys tho, but sometimes they have buckets of floss samples.
