Small, simple, and a joy to behold.

Display window with Mary Katrantzou dress for The Room, The Hudson's Bay, Vancouver, BC

These display windows are just great. The space that the window dresser has to work with is not huge, but they make great use of it and the displays are always creative. I go out of my way to photograph these displays to show to my students.

And I wonder how long Safeway will be sorry


Announcement sign at the entrance of the Safeway store at New Westminster station, New Westminster, BC 
Apology sign at the entrance of the Safeway store at New Westminster station, New Westminster, BC
I saw this sign at the entrance to a Safeway store. Given the wear and tear on the apology sign, and the fact that it had been there for a couple of weeks, I wonder if the wipes will ever be replenished.

And if there will never be more wipes, why not just take the dispenser away? But the fact that the dispenser is still there gives customers some hope that one day the wipes will return.

I don't recommend holding your breath.
