The Price Is IIight
Like sayings from the past, some things never change.
With Bi -Way, Eaton's and Zellers all together only at
London's Westmount, there is no need toaworry about
getting the best value. Add that to the many weekly
sales and specials throughout the mall and you can't
afford not to shop especially when the price is right.
(Wasn't that a game show?)
Westmount offers more than what you would expect
from a Shopping Centre, plus with over 180 shops and
services, many of them exclusive to Westmount,
you'll love the difference.
