London Drugs Has The Home Chef Covered

I love a one-stop shop, especially during the holiday season when I’m already short on time and can use a little extra help! London Drugs (with locations in BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba) has been in operation since 1945 when it was just one store on Main Street in Vancouver. The pharmacy is still the heart of London Drugs, but today they also offer a full service computer department, cosmetics ranging from lipgloss to high-end face creams, furniture, cameras, high quality photo finishing, cordless phones and plasma televisions. Did you know? More people buy their small appliances in London Drugs than any other place in Western Canada!

With that in mind, London Drugs compiled a list of their top small appliances this holiday season to share with readers should you be stumped on a last minute gift idea or see an item that might make your Christmas hosting skills shine:
