I have used Yuen Hai Framing in Richmond several times and they were really good. Small shop but they did a great job and have lots of options for mats, glass, and types of frames. Came out to 20% cheaper than Michael's even with the coupons.

There are times (rare) that Michael's has good prices on clearance items.

The good thing about Michael's is the convenience factor.
So the big question is where is the best place in Surrey or the Tri-Cities? I thought Michaels would be over priced thats why they always have these 50% off coupons.
