Where can I get some large umbrellas?

I have a wedding to go to on Saturday, and the weather forecast can't seem to decide if it's going to rain, and if so, how much.

I'd like to pick some some large (golf?) umbrellas as cheap as possible. Anyone have any good tips on where I could find some? South-end Ottawa if possible.

Ikea sells large, golf-sized umbrellas for $4.99 each... as long as you don't mind that they're blue and yellow.

... Perhaps that's the wedding color theme?

You can get a pretty big umbrella at Walmart. I got one for maybe $13? And I can usually hide 2-3 people under it at a time, depending on the size of the person.

The Bay has a lot of umbrellas, they're expensive though.

I bought a bunch of Nike branded, black golf umbrellas at Canadian Tire a while back. They were super cheap, like $5-10 each.

My wife and I picked up some large umbrellas from Canadian Tire for about $10 each a few months back.

Costco has some really high quality umbrellas. You get an oversized golf umbrella and a smaller (but not purse size) umbrella in a pack of 2 for $20.

I bought a decent sized one from Canadian Tire for $7. All black.
