If you’re in Toronto and haven’t checked out Shopcastr, go now. It’s a new website, like Pinterest – but with a more local niche. It’s an easy and way to find what you’re looking for (or find a cool gift) right in your own city. To make things easier, you can shop by neighbourhood before you make the trek there to check it out. Why not explore what Toronto has to offer from your own home?
Although it’s Toronto-specific and features stores of all types – food, clothing, decorating, jewellery, and art; you can’t actually buy the products online. The goal of Shopcastr is to show you the products and prices, then get you into the store to buy it. Think of it as a city-wide shopping guide that’s updated by stores daily.
Toronto Life has picked up the Shopcastr buzz; over 300 local stores have been active since November, including Gotstyle. See something you like? use the “love” function to remind yourself. Follow along to see our newest arrivals and prices.
