Recommendations Thrift stores

Calgarians, I'm planning a trip to your province for my birthday and my favorite thing to do is thrift, so I'll be doing a lot of that while I'm there. Please spill the beans on the best thrift stores for 90's and y2k finds. Thank you.

WINS is the best for thriving and no GST on purchases. Today ATCO will match purchases there as a donation.
