I particularly like the tech shirt -- just have no idea why I selected Large -- which I couldn't change. A few years ago, I selected small. I tried the Large on and it'll do. There were previous years' shirts at the expo selling for $5. I would prefer the timing chip but this race is using the bib chip. Since I won't be wearing my Garmin, this shouldn't be an issue.
At the expo, I shopped at the Toronto Marathon booth and bought a jacket (to wear, not to run in). The jacket I really wanted was in medium size and too big. I needed a small and settled with:
Also bought 3 gels (although they're giving gels during the race tomorrow). Walked the expo 4 times and then made the trek back home.
Goal: To FINISH the 42.2 K tomorrow morning
Prize: Finisher's Medal that is 5 inches in diameter! Wow -- the Toronto Waterfront medal is 2.5 inches.

Will wearing your garmin with a bib chip a problem? I am running tomtorrow and always wear my garmin to every race
At the Midsummer Night's Run, we were told NOT to have the Garmin in front of the bib -- as this could interfer with the electronics -- both at the start and finish lines. I no longer race with my Garmin -- during the latter part of the race, I'm also looking at the watch.
Good luck tomorrow! I wish I was there, kick butt!
