I'm just curious. Mine are Target and Fleet Farm. I'm not sure if they have Fleet Farm in other states, but it's a really cool store. you can buy animal feed and stuff there, but you can also buy candy, dvds and cooking supplies. So to me it's like a giant Target.
The Dollar Tree. Followed by Target. But Dollar Tree is my favorite. :lol:
Lately I'd have to say CVS, I've been burning up their "Extra Bucks" promos and have gotten nearly $30 of stuff free. On a roll!
Other than that, I don't know if I really have a favorite store :-/ They all have their perks and drawbacks and many days I'm not in a mood for any of them :lol:
I do a lot of shopping at the 99 Cent Store & Dollar Tree, because they're cheap and easily accessible by bike :lol: And CVS too, because of their Extra Bucks promos like CGW said.
But as for where I really like shopping: Amoeba (regional record store here in California... or any record store, really!), thrift shops, book stores, Hot Topic (sometimes they have gems!), comic shops... those are all places I end up spending a lot of unnecessary money, haha :)
Well... Disney Store :lol: Otherwise for general shopping... I guess ICA :idiot: They're one of the main supermarket companies in Sweden. There are two of them close to where I live, so if I need anything, that's where I go xD
Oh, how could I forget the Disney Store! :D So many cute things in there, and now that they carry Marvel stuff too, it's double the temptation for me :lol:
here the stores are so terrible, that there is no space to like them: Always high prices and huge people lines to pay
I can't say I have a favourite store as I don't really like shopping. I have preferred stores for where I like to get certain things, like hay for Bandit, or my green groceries etc, but that's about it.

We didn't have any equivalent where I came from, so it blew my mind to see so many cheap things!
After that I'd say Walmart, because it's so huge! We've got a Walmart supercenter about 5 minutes away, and it has a ton of things!
Also, ordering online, and paying cash in-store is really neat and convenient!
I could spend hours in there, and not get bored at all :haha:
Other than that, I like just about any store, really!
I adore shopping, and I like going to new places and seeing new things, so yeah :p
Dollar Tree is no longer my favorite store. It's top 5, but my very favorite store is Five Below.
Aww :(Quote:

Why do you like it more than dollar tree, though, if I may ask? :p
Having visited a few countries, I have favorites everywhere.
UK: Asda, poundland
US: five below, target, walmart
France: Auchan
For me, it's gotta be Wegmans, a chain of Walmart or Target-sized grocery stores in the northeastern US -- that is, a huge store with mostly all food! To give you an idea of scale, the cheese section of the one I used to go to was larger than most grocery store produce sections.
It sounds like stores generally are a lot bigger where you all are from xD What's Five Below?
I'd like to add Primark to my list of favourites. So many nice clothes at such nice prices :D Also a chain of stores here in Sweden called "Indiska" that has a lot of very nice clothes. It's a bit more expensive though. And I found a gorgeous art shop in my town just a couple of weeks ago. After four years of living here I discovered it at last... :lol: Gonna be spending a bit in there once I have the money, haha. So yeah, shopping for Disney stuff, clothes and markers/sketchpads/pencils is what I like to do, clearly :p
I demand proof of this elusive cheese section! :pQuote:

Oh yeah! Before moving, I bought most of my clothes from Primark. (Now I get them from Walmart >p< )
I don't think I've ever been to an art shop, other than in Paris... :<
Add some food to that list, and you've got me covered! :p
An amazing shop where everything is below five dollars. They also have the best nail polish ever. :PQuote:

Shame, since the nearest Primark is about 400 miles away, now ;~;
I should pay extra attention next time I go to Walmart, to see if they've got any Lion King merchandise anymore. I mean, they should, with The Lion Guard... >p>
THey have a few things for littles. Dollar Tree actually had a bunch of puzzles last I was there. I got a few for my games box at school.
They mainly get a lot of Lion King pyjama's actually.Quote:

Heh, I went to the opening of a Primark (in Brussels, I think.) and the only bothersome thing was that you couldn't even get in the store :haha:Quote:

We were in there for a brief moment, before deciding that you can't shop very well if you're constantly pressed up against 5 strangers, so we left.
Although I spent a lot of of time in a Primark in London, got some of my favourite shirts from there ^-^
But that aside; I've never really used pajamas, but considering winter will probably be very cold, I'll have to prepare :p
Where on earth are you from ?? haha
I hate Primark Brussels. The people there are disquisting. I'm sorry ... (or not). Kudo's to the people who work there!
Last time we wanted to check Primark Brussels there was an hour wait-line, and Adam said "by the time you get in, you've gone up a size" made me roll over the floor, haha :lol:
Best picture I can find is from the one in Malvern, PA on this blog: https://sewwhatsarahs.wordpress.com/...21/im-in-love/Quote:

That looks a lot like the Whole Foods we have here. They have the little $3 and under cheese remnants. Cranberry cheddar should be out soon. NOM nom nom.
The only fancy cheese we mere mortals can afford! XD Well, two of my roommates work for Whole Foods and they can get cheese that's about to go past date for super cheap. I'm not always that impressed by expensive cheesem, but I'll be that heretic and say I'm not really a huge fan of cheese in general, which is why the idea of a huge cheese section is all the more amusing to me.Quote:
