Toronto Winners selling exact same bag for $110 more than other location

After buying a Ted Baker bag, a Winners shopper was shocked to find that the same item was over a hundred dollars cheaper at another location.

The shopper explained that on February 1, she purchased a silver Ted Baker Gusto Water Floral Vanity Case at a Winners store located at 167 North Queen Street in Etobicoke. The item retailed for $249.99.

The next day, she went to a Winners store located at 444 Yonge Street, where she was surprised to discover the same item for just $139.99.

"That's a significant difference of $110 plus HST!" she stated. "Both items are not missing anything/not damaged. Both items come with a strap that's stored inside."

Winners, known for selling designer items at a discount, is owned by TJX Canada, which also owns Marshalls and HomeSense.

She said she plans to keep the lower-priced bag and return the more expensive bag purchased at Winners.

"Why is there a difference in the prices for the same item?" she asked. "Must I, as a consumer, check all Winners before I make a purchase?"

TJX Canada has been contacted for a comment.
