Olympic Merchandise
 
I saw an ad in a flyer a couple weeks ago where they were advertising Olympic merchandise.

I can't recall the location. Does anyone have the address for it? I'm looking for a sweater for someone.

It's call Great Northern Gift...although they kinda renamed themself to "17 hours" now cause they only open for 17 hours on the weekend. http://www.17hours.ca/index.php

6741 Cariboo Rd
Burnaby, BC

and

8410 Ontario St
Vancouver , BC

It's been over a year since that warehouse started selling / liquidating their assets. And to date, they STILL have crap load of inventory left.

Free plushie everytime you visit!

jpoon 03-09-2011 11:19 PM

^Is that true? Then it's worth it! Depending on what kind of plushie you get hahaha.

RevRav 03-09-2011 11:23 PM

^ It's a different one/size each weekend. They been handing them out for half a year + now.

Even the C-lai's got bored of them.

CP.AR 03-09-2011 11:24 PM

^ My GF and I got so many free plushies we each have 3 sets of each size from the smallest one up to the 17.5" line.

but seriously. whoever ordered that much shit needs to get fired

Euro7r 03-10-2011 12:12 AM

Free stuff, can't complain :thumbsup:

K-Dub 03-10-2011 12:14 AM

It's close by, so my mom goes every Saturday after work to pick one up. Why not? You can make a set, better than paying for it!

Two, maybe three weeks ago they gave a way a cheesy DVD and luggage tags.

They send me e-mails every week with news. Just sign up on their website

Looks like their Olympic stuff is selling out............. 'bout time.

slammer111 03-10-2011 02:19 PM

Been making a trip every weekend for a month now. Yeah someone ordered WAY too much Olympic merchandise. They're giving away free stuffed toys every weekend. Good for regifting, but kinda useless after you get your first 5.

Don't bother with the DVD. It's <10 minutes of footage. Waste of gas. :mad:

Is the olympic store still at YVR? Last time I was there, there was a lot of paralympic pins on the rack. Below those pins were lots and lots of Martin Brodeur pins... lol This was back in May.

hungryRR 03-10-2011 04:21 PM

I was there last weekend and they were giving out a 7.5" quatchi plush. This couple that was there tried asking for another free plush :stupid: haha i guess they didn't even want to spend 2.50 for another one.

Benz_05TSX 03-11-2011 05:23 AM

MG1 03-11-2011 05:25 AM

Just make sure you don't go on a Friday. It's only Saturday and Sunday. The ydon't open any other day. That's why they are called 17 hour........... only open the 17 hours.

dmm 03-12-2011 10:51 PM

Boxed set of 7.5" guys are $5/set
Single 7.5" ones are $1.50
Single plush 4.5" keychains are $1 (only Mukmuk and Quatchi)
Plush keychains are $6/set
Forgot how much the medium and large ones are, but I think $3 and $5 each respectively.

They are open Fridays, but don't give anything out on Fridays. Plush giveaways are Saturdays/Sundays.

Durrann 03-20-2011 10:28 AM

Yes. They greet you at the door and give you the freebie right away. You then shop. When finished, you go to the payment area that is located in the southeast corner of building.

RevRav 03-20-2011 11:13 AM

^ or if you're cheap. Just walk a loop, and without buying anything...walk back out the entrance door.

lilaznviper 03-20-2011 11:49 AM

or if your lazy just get it and walk right out
