What stores do you go crazy in?

[WelshWitchPMD]

OK. I after being couped up for about a week I went out for a bit on this nice warm (34F) sunny day.

I went to this local shopping area and I went to Office Max to get some ink for my new printer. I love to go there. I go crazy! I got my ink and I bought some photo paper both 4x6 and 8x10 and some labels. I get so excited in there. They have blank CDs and DVDs, digital cameras and printers, all kinds of fun stuff to make with your photo printer. I could spend my whole pay in there and then some. I love computers and gadgets.

Circuit City is also down the street in this shopping area and I rarely go there. I get high blood pressure in there because they never have what I want and the help is SOOO clueless!


I also went to Borders books. I like to go in there, too. I bought some photography magazines because I like to pretend that I am a photographer.


I also like Staples and CompUSA. Best Buy is another noisy, useless store that I don't go to that much. I used to like it but they just seemed to go down hill with service. I did buy my computer there last spring, however. I also have a gift card that I need to use and what I want is not in the store and I can't use the card online.

I won't even get into clothes and shoes.

Um, any store?

I go ape**** in all of them! More specifically, though, I go nuts in music shops and bookstores. Usually the little hole-in-the-wall type shops. I also go batty in vintage clothing shops. I have an obsession with those stores.

I found this one vintage shop about three weeks ago and I've been there every other day since.

I must have bought 30 belts from them; they have the most amazing belts. I got a pink and white striped one that has a tongue for a clasp.

Those are the best! You can find lots of goodies. Nothing like the Mom and Pop shops!

I would like to concur with everyone -
bookstore, clothes store, and food being on the top of my list. And, jewelry store - I tend to go pretty ape**** in a jewelry store.. my palms get sweaty and I start shaking slightly from excitement...

Yeah, I used to pretty crazy myself. Not so much now but when I was younger. That and any kind of bath or beauty product like cosmetics and stuff.

I think I am seriously going to be doing more online shopping. I am looking for a place that has some good prices on DVDs. I can't find that Golden Girls DVD anywhere in a store and it is a bit too much $ at Amazon.

Borders, Best Buy, FYE....You can never get me out of there, once I go in.

I hate shopping in noisy, crowded places. I don't go out much anymore, I've become a hermit. LOL I use to go to Wal-Mart alot, but now, it's an anxiety attack just waiting to happen and I only go if absolutely necessary. I prefer to go to less-crowded, although a little more expensive, Target or Super Target.

I like Best Buy but can get most CD's cheaper online.

As for clothes shopping...I go to Ross (cheap! YAY!!), but I found jeans that fit well at Target. I may have to start buying all my clothes there.

I go to the mall on ocassion, but only if I'm looking for something specific or I wanna go look for new clothes and I REALLY wanna spend money on decent stuff. LOL

Mostly, these days, I buy stuff online...it's cheaper and convenient for me, not having a license or car.

What I REALLY wanna do is go back to London and drop a wad. LOL
