Looking to get a new back pack
I need a back pack but I don't want to get a mac one. Is there somewhere near campus where I could get a non-mac back pack ruck sack nap sack?

Titles doesn't only sell mac back packs, I believe they sell Roots ones as well. Probably fairly pricey though.

I can't think of anything near Mac or Jackson... Limeridge of Eastgate is the only thing that comes to mind. Value Villige is on the mountain if you're short on money.

Backpacks at Titles
The Bookstore carries Roots, Swiss Gear, Targus, Kensington, Golla bags and more... we don't have a lot to show you online at the moment but here are three knapsacks that are worth taking a look at before make the trip to the mall.
Other brands and styles are available in store. |

depends on how much you plan on spending,
anything 100$ you should look at 3 day or overnight military bags

I got a decent Columbia backpack with a laptop compartment for $17 from Winners in Ancaster. They were missing the large size Swiss Army one I got a couple of years ago for $30ish though. Winners has decent and cheap selection if a laptop compartment and alot of capacity isn't your biggest issue.

Too bad it's not close to Mac, but Mountain Equipment Co-op has some awesome ones. Worth every penny.
