Toots on Main Street, Yarmouth Nova Scotia.. is actually quite an icon of Yarmouth. Everyone in Yarmouth .. would tell you .. that they have been to the store.. at least a few times.. in their life.

Payless Shoe Source is usually the place where we get our kid’s shoes. I think they are alot better where quality if concerned.. and they do have alot of varieties to choose from. If you wait long enough.. or in luck.. you can actually get really good shoes for a fraction of its original price. So if you need shoes for your kids. .or even for yourselves..during a vacation, here you can find sandals.. comfy shoes.. boots.. and from casual to office shoes.
Shoes at Payless are not only for a 4 yrs.. old.. but right up till you don’t need for any shoes. Comes in many sizes .. for both the men and the women. I won’t say they are cheap.. but neither are they too, too expensive.
Sandals.. anyone..?? starting from $5 – $19

Bank Of Montreal is one of our local banks in town. Located in Main Street, Yarmouth, one can expect friendly services here. If you need to draw money from your credit card or an need a money changer .. this is the place to be. Very near the Tourism office of Yarmouth, it is only minutes away. Amongst all the banks that I’ve been to in Yarmouth, I’ll have to say . that i liked Bank of Montreal best.
Entrance to Bank of Montreal and they do have a handicapped ramp here too for those who are physically challenged. Auto doors for the needy is just a button away.
Easy to find, Bank of Montreal is on the very Main Street of Yarmouth. Big Blue sign!
I’ll get the address for you soon.
Yes.. ! we do have an A&W here.. but i’ll have to tell you .. i don’t have much luck over here.. with their food. But of course taste is subjective.. and i think i am spoiled with the Coney Dog back home.. and they donch have it here.. so i guessed i am still disappointed after being here for 8 yrs. But yes.. they opened for breakfast and closes at 9pm everyday. They do have a drive-thru’ too.. and i will update more on the inside of A&W .. with food tasting and all later. As of now.. i am still recovering from 2 surgeries. Located at Starrs Road at an intersection next to Irvings Gas Station.
Easyhome is for those who wants to buy appliances but don’t have so much cash with them. Sad to say.. most customers from here are those with bad credit. But for those having a holiday home here in Nova Scotia.. this might be an option to get your extra tvs.. or game stations .. on rental… instead of buying it outright.. or lugging it back and forth. But you can also get some used cheap stuff here.. but it looks like they only like to sell them to ppl they know.
TVs, Sofas and even lamps are sold here.. and paid for by installment. .on a weekly basis. It may seems a little of $20/week.. but if you look at it in a month .. you are paying like $80/month and usually it is a few years contract you have to sign. So instead of paying $1000 for a sofa.. you probably end up pay like $3000. But like i said.. for those without credit or bad credit.. this is but their only choice.
Need a dresser..?? or a lamp for $3 a week..??
You can’t missed this store..!
