It’s a unique place to shop for anyone still searching for a Christmas present.
For the month of December, the city’s surplus store is 10 to 50 per cent off.
Spokesperson Michael Harle tells City News, many of the items, like used electronics, were once used by city employees.
Other merchandise comes from lost and found or police.
“Some of the items we’re able to get on our website, which is at www.calgary.ca. Just search surplus equipment and you’ll find it. We even have some perfume and make-up and there’s some good name brands there as well,” Harle said.
The store is open every Tuesday from 8 a.m. to noon, and 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. in the afternoon at the city’s yard in the 600 block of 25th Avenue Southeast.
