Boots/CVS/Ulta equivalent?
What is the Boots/CVS equivalent in Canada (Vancouver)?
What about Ulta? Is it only Sephora?
Just want to have a look online at the prices. Thanks.

Re: Boots/CVS/Ulta equivalent?
Thank you everyone. Will check these out online. I suspected I might have to ship lots of stuff from the UK...
CVS and Ulta are both in the US, and it doesn't look like they're in Canada.

Places like wal-mart, loblaws, food basics, zehrs, farm boy, costco also have a pharmacy section. If you are close to a US border then you just get from walgreens and the likes

If visiting the US then this may become relevant in the future
Alliance Boots & Walgreens Merger
On the 19th June 2012, it was announced that Walgreens (America's largest Drug store retailer) was purchasing a 45% stake in Boots, costing $6.7bn. The deal is a long term plan to give maximum exposure to both brands, Boots more so in America and, Walgreens more so in the UK and in China through Boots presence in the market. Both companies will then look to complete a full merger within 3 years costing an extra $9.5bn. [16]
