That’s why we want to take a moment to give some of the awesome smaller businesses in and around Calgary a shoutout.
Next, we want to tell everyone about Escape 60, Calgary’s highest-rated escape room experience. Located at 1638-10th Ave and son to expand into Edmonton, Escape 60 cates to small groups and large corporate events. It has a fully licensed bar to serve you drinks before, after and even during your escape (you can pause the game to get a refill!) and they have a great selection of themed escape rooms based on Harry Potter, Jurassic Park, Star Wars, Pablo Escobar and even The Office!
Unfortunately, due to the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, they are temporarily closed. However, if you go to their website they’re currently selling gift cards for 25% off, so you can great a great deal, support a local business, and have a fun night out once things begin to return to normal and the restrictions are lifted. Even if escape rooms aren’t your thing, you could pick one up for a fun and unique gift for someone else!
Take a look at their Facebook page and Instagram.
Our Small Business Shoutout this week goes to AMBA JEWELLERS in Edmonton. Amba Jewellers is Family owned and operated jewellery store in Millwoods Town Center in Edmonton AB. I know it sounds weird to be talking about jewellery right now, but they are a company that is still finding ways to help people celebrate birthdays, anniversaries and more importantly Mothers Day which is coming right up. Gold Like Real Estate is a good investment and also a great gift to show your appreciation to those you love. You can shop local and get a great gift for all the Momma's around.
