Here's what it said:
Mr.Cheap Variety
1839 Avenue Rd.
Residents of the strip of Avenue Road between
Wilson and Lawrence regard Mr.Cheap as something
like the neighbourhood helpful uncle. "Maybe suggestion
:He probably does, whether "it" is $2.99 mittens, $2.49
VHS cassettes or crayons at $1.49 for 32. Mr.Cheap was a
dollar store before dollar stores, lending- Mirvish -esque down-
town discounts to an uptown 'hood otherwise concerned with
equestrian riding gear and antique clocks. Moreover, for many,
Mr.Cheap is Toronto's destination for bargain-priced cigarettes.
A 20-pack of Belmonts remain $7.85(its $9.70 for 25). No wonder
some TTC drivers pull over their 61 buses to run a deck. Ask how
they keep prices down, the woman behind the counter
-The presumptive Mrs.Cheap
-grins. "Hard Work."
