The main convenience of shopping here is the fact that you can find most of the things you might need, but prices are not the best. They are the same as everywhere else.
However... everytime that I have been there, there are sales on specific items.
Funny enough, both times I went to Canada, I came back with a new set of luggage as I got some Samsonite and Air Canada bags 60-70% off. Last time I also bought some Levi's pants and sweaters 40% off.
Weekends are usually good for sales as I guess they want to attract more people (it is located in a mainly business-oriented area).
In any case, if you are in Toronto for some time (a week or so) check in once in a while as sales come and go and often only last a day or two. You might try to get on the good side of one of the, usually very friendly, salespeople as you can get inside information on when there will be another sale.
My girlfriend bought a Guess purse 40 % off (30% plus an extra 10% scratch bonus we got that day). Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Eaton CentreDirections: On Yonge and Dundas.

The Eaton Centre is situated in the heart of Downtown Toronto. This is a 'must see' when you visit Toronto as it is a large shopping mall and lots of visitors come here being one of North America's top shopping destinations. Other tourist come to Eaton's not only to shop but also to experience a different kind of atmosphere and architecture. It's unique sculpture of Canada geese is one of the mall attractions. Hungry? Don't worry you don't need to go out of the mall. You will find fastfoods on both ends of the mall where you can eat your lunch and dinner with the selection of Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Jamaican, Thailand, Vietnamese, Arabian, and of course Canadian dishes. After your meal, you may take a walk and you will find at the centre of the mall, the famous fountain. After you have done shopping and want to do some more, then you may exit at Yonge Street where you will find the Canon, and the Elgin & Winter Garden theatres. You may be able to witness street performers at the Yonge and Dundas corner and Yonge and Queen intersection. That's not all. There are more attractions you will find nearby which is too many to mention.
For your convenience, I am giving you the store schedule below:
Monday to Friday 10AM to 9PM
Saturday 9:30AM to 7PM
Sunday 12PM to 6PM

The Toronto Eaton Center can be accessed via the Yonge subway line. Get off at either the Queen or Dundas station.
Both stops will put you actually inside the mall. I usually choose Dundas simply because I am usually aiming for Sephora and/or H&M both are at this end.
There is pretty much anything, everything and every store you can think of in this mall including two large department stores The Bay (Queen St. end) and Sears (Dundas).
The Timothy Eaton Company started not long after our confederation. The mail order catalogue (referred to as the “Homesteaders Bible”) was a huge hit in 1884 when the first one was handed out at a farmer’s exhibition. Due to widespread population mail orders came pouring in and The T. Eaton Company had stumbled upon a great business venture and help shaped Canadian pioneer life.
The last Eaton's store closed its doors on Feb. 26, 2002 and I still miss this national institution!
If you can't find SOMETHING in this place you don't need to be shopping!
At times very expensive, but if the sales are on....... woooooo hooooo! Leave a Comment

 Eaton Centre (2005) by Kaspian
There are over 285 shops inside. The "Info Desk" on Level 2 can help you find what you're looking for and they'll give you a free city map and brochures about other local attractions. The decorations inside the Centre during the Christmas season are fantastic!
The Centre stretches two full city blocks, attracts approximately 50 million visitors annually, and is apparently the #1 most visited tourist attractions in Toronto. Although the first Eaton Store on this location was built in 1883, most of what we now see of the six-storey glass-ceiling building was constructed in the late 1970s. The mobile flock of Canada Geese, entitled "Flight Stop", was made by Toronto-born artist Michael Snow.
You can access the Eaton Centre through the "Dundas" or "Queen" subway stations. If you are really brave, there are parking garages adjacent--personally I like the one on Dundas beside the Marriott Hotel. Leave a Comment

 Eaton Centre by Imaniac
There are five levels to chose from - both the most of it is taken up by the huge departement store Sears. A great store where you can find virtualy everything.
Inside you can also admire a special art exhibition by Michael Snow. He made a project using 60 life size Canade Geese. Although they were meant to be taken down long tie ago - people decided they wanted to keep it. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: Between Queen St, Yonge St, Dundas St and Bay St.

The Disney Store at Eaton Center is probably about the same as the Disney Stores anywhere.
I was shopping for birthday presents for two of my grandchildren who were born at the end of June (age 6) and the beginning of July (age 3). I wanted them sent directly to them, as I didn't want to carry them around.
The previous May we all went to a family reunion at Disney World
For my granddaughter: $78.00 Canadian
Flik Singalong
A Bug's Life VHS
Bug's Life Watch
Tarzan Animals Skirt
Tarzan Messenger
For my grandson: $84.00 Canadian
Tarzan backpack and safari outfit
I spent a total of $219.68 Canadian This was $151.50 in US$ Leave a Comment

The Eaton Centre is a Galleria type place with a high domed glass ceiling and several levels of shops around a central area. In the area enclosed by the dome there is an ariel sculpture of Candian geese flying the length of the centre. (using the British Canadian spelling for center)
I found that when I went down to the back end of the centre and took the elevator up that I would be on a level with the geese, and if I was quick I could get a photo of them.
HOURS
Mon-Fri 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM
Sat 9:30 AM - 7:00 PM
Sun 12:00 PM - 6:00 PM
I went to the Disney store (see another tip) which is not too much different from a Disney store anywhere - not representative. I also ate dinner at the food court very cheaply. Leave a Comment
