Haha............. now that you mention it, I remember that Safeway. It had a huge parking lot. It later became Value Village until they tore the building down.

The dollar store you speak of is awesome. It survived a huge fire not long ago.

I don't know if it is coincidence or not, but Mainland Liquidators suffered a fire, too. They are now at Mopac's old location.

Speaking of Mopac, do you guys remember them having a store further up Kingsway in Burnaby?


EDIT: Correction, they were still on the Vancouver side of the border. Funny about all Mopac locations. All the workers there, no matter which location, including the old Surrey store, parked their cars in an angle to, I guess, protect their cars from being dinged. Never parking between the lines like us regular folk.
