According to Wikipedia:
The T. Eaton Company Limited, commonly known as Eaton\'s, was a Canadian department store chain that was once Canada\'s largest. It was founded in 1869 in Toronto by Timothy Eaton, an immigrant from what is now Northern Ireland. Eaton\'s grew to become a retail and social institution in Canada, with stores across the country, buying-offices around the globe, and a mail-order catalog that was found in the homes of most Canadians. A changing economic and retail environment in the late twentieth century, along with mismanagement, culminated in the chain\'s bankruptcy in 1999.
Eaton\'s pioneered several retail innovations. In an era when haggling for goods was the norm, the chain proclaimed \"We propose to sell our goods for CASH ONLY – In selling goods, to have only one price.\" In addition, it had the long-standing slogan \"Goods Satisfactory or Money Refunded.\"
In 1869, Timothy Eaton sold his interest in a small dry-goods store in the market town of St. Marys, Ontario, and he bought a dry-goods and haberdashery business at 178 Yonge Street in the city of Toronto.
The first store was only 24 by 60 feet (7.3 m × 18.3 m), with two shop windows, and was located a fair distance from Toronto\'s then fashionable shopping district of King Street West. In its first year of operation, with Timothy Eaton responsible for buying the goods to stock the store, and a staff of four, expectations were low that a store with a no-credit and no-haggling policy would succeed.
The business prospered, and Eaton moved the store one block north in August 1883 into much larger premises at 190 Yonge Street. The new store boasted the biggest plate-glass windows in Toronto, the first electric lights in any Canadian store, three full floors of retail space featuring 35 departments, and a lightwell that ran the full length of the store. The store\'s first telephone, with phone number 370, was installed in 1885. In 1886, the first elevator in a retail establishment in Toronto was installed in the Eaton store (although only customers going up were invited to use the elevator, thus requiring them to pass by the various store displays on their walk down).
Eaton maintained the lease on the empty store at 178 Yonge Street until its expiry in 1884 in order to delay the expansion plans of one of his competitors, Robert Simpson. Over time, the competition between the Simpson\'s and Eaton\'s department stores, facing each other across Queen Street West, became one of Toronto\'s great business rivalries. The pedestrian crosswalk on Queen Street West, just to the west of the intersection with Yonge Street, was for years one of the busiest in Canada, as thousands of shoppers a day comparison-shopped between Eaton\'s and Simpson\'s.
By 1896, Eaton\'s was billing itself as \"Canada\'s Greatest Store\". The store continued to expand in size, and new buildings were constructed to house the mail order division and the Eaton\'s factories. The number of people employed in Eaton\'s operations numbered 17,500 in 1911. In 1919, the Eaton\'s buildings in Toronto contained a floor space of over 60 acres (240,000 m2), and occupied several city blocks between Yonge Street and Bay Street, north of Queen Street West.
The Winnipeg store - At the beginning of the 20th century, Eaton\'s conducted a large business in Western Canada through its catalogue. Eaton\'s considered Winnipeg, Manitoba, as the most logical location for a new mail order warehouse to better serve its western customers. A store was not originally part of the plans.
John Craig Eaton, the son of Timothy Eaton, became an early proponent of building a combined store and mail order operation in Winnipeg. Although Timothy Eaton initially had misgivings over the difficulties involved in managing a store 2,100 kilometres (1,300 mi) from Toronto, John Craig was eventually able to convince his father. Eaton\'s acquired a city block on Portage Avenue at Donald Street, and the five-storey Eaton\'s store opened to much fanfare on July 15, 1905. Timothy Eaton and his family were on hand for the opening of the second Eaton\'s store, with the Winnipeg Daily Tribune noting in its front-page headline: \"The Canadian Napoleon of Retail Commerce Reaches the Capital – Views His Great Store for First Time – Well Pleased\".
The landmark red brick store, known as \"the Big Store\" to Winnipeggers, was a success. The initial staff of 750 grew to 1,200 within a few weeks of the opening. By 1910, three more storeys were added to the store and other buildings were constructed. By 1919, the Eaton\'s operations in Winnipeg covered 21 acres (85,000 m2) and employed 8,000 people.
For many years, the Winnipeg Eaton\'s store was considered the most successful department store in the world, given how it dominated its local market. As late as the 1960s, Canadian Magazine estimated that Winnipeggers spent more than 50 cents of every shopping dollar (excluding groceries) at Eaton\'s, and that on a busy day, one out of every ten Winnipeggers would visit the Portage Avenue store.
The store was closed on 17 October 1999, along with 36 other Eaton\'s stores.
