just noticed in today's National Post that Wm. Ashley's (no affiliation with store) is having their annual warehouse sale (advert in first section of paper) Ashley's for those unfamiliar with the name is a high end china, crystal & goodie store on bloor St. They have a 10 day sale every November. Stock is augemented by other wholesalers & retailers so caveat emptor but bargains do exist & you can find some real quality stuff if you dig. Arrive early in day, lineups abound.
