I'm visiting Toronto for the week and was hoping that I could check out a stamp store or two while I'm here. Can anyone tell me where your favorite stores are? I'm looking more for stores that have stamp supplies than just scrapbook supplies. I'm staying near the downtown area, so close to there would be great.
Most of the ones I know are outside of the downtown area. I think there are a couple, but I have never been to them. Here is a site I found with listings of Toronto area stores.
There is one stamping store that is *sort of* downtown (Bloor West Village). It's accessable by subway if you don't want to drive as parking is a bit of a pain in the butt in that are:
I haven't personally been to that store in a while but when I was there in the past they have a decent selection of stamps, inks, etc. I personally find them pricey however.
If you happen to be going by the west end of the city (near the airport and a bit west) there are two really good scrapbook stores that both carry a fair amount of stamping stuff:
Than you everyone for your suggestions. I had totally forgotten about Stamping Bella and got there on Monday. Then today we were able to do Scrapalicious Inc and Scrapbook Queens. Scrapbook Queens didn't have anything I wanted (that I couldn't get at home), but Scrapalicious had 50% off The Greeting Farms, so I got my first stamps from that company. They also had some 50% off Riley's so I grabbed a few.

Thanks!!
Always happy to help spend other people's money
For a city the size of Toronto, we certainly don't have a great selection of stores compared to other larger cities I've visited in the States---thank goodness for the internet LOL!
I also forgot to mention there is another store in Markham (north east Toronto). They carry lots of Penny Black, Hero Arts stamps and the prices are pretty decent (comparable to everywhere else): Scrapbooking Ideas and Supplies
