I actually find shopping very tiring, especially at Christmas time. The malls are busy, I get very warm, and I get tired lugging parcels around as well as coats. Kids pulling me in a hundred different directions and getting thirsty, hungry, and tired. Ahhh shopping!
The one thing that I do look forward to during my holiday shopping is our breaks at the RBC Avion Holiday Boutique. This year our local boutique was moved to a different mall than the last couple of years. The move meant we had to go out to a mall a little further, but it is one of the biggest malls in our area, Metrotown.
If you are local, then you know that Metrotown is busy at any time of the year, so at Christmas it is extra busy. It is also quite a large mall so you are walking quite a bit to cover all the stores.
The RBC Avion Holiday Boutique is situation in the heart of the Metrotown mall right by the centre court where you find Jolly Old St Nick himself. It is probably the most beautiful part of the mall as there are Christmas decorations galore and a beautiful wall of lights.
I was at the RBC Avion Holiday Boutique this past weekend and caught some live footage through Periscope. If you do not follow me on Periscope, no worries, go check out some of my videos on Katch.

Avionners receive an awesome RBC Avion Holiday Boutique reusable shopping bag if you need one to carry your gift wrapped items. We can always use more reusable bags as I am forever forgetting ours.
So where are the RBC Avion Holiday Boutiques across Canada you ask?
