Top Ten Tuesday - Favorite Stores
This was a struggle for me.
Amazon dot com: I've bought a lot of shirts and books through here. Downloaded some music to my computer. It's nice to shop online, but I have to have the items sent to my mom's house, because the UPS here stinks. So sometimes it takes a few months for me to get my stuff.
Book Depository: They sell books and ship for free world-wide. They use the USPS, so I can have them sent directly to me. Sometimes, they include a free bookmark. You can get some good deals on here if you wait for the right time.
Ross: Cheap clothes, and I've bought a few rugs here. Within walking distance of my apartment.
Macy's: Another clothes store I can walk to, as I'm avoiding ending my sentences with prepositions. It's wise to shop here when they have a sale.
J.C. Penney: Yes. Another clothing store. They sell the hiking shoes I like. I got a shirt for $2 last time I was here. It's 4X so it totally covers my butt when I don't tuck it into my pants.
Barnes & Noble: Back in the day, this was the primo bookstore. Both in the physical world and online.
Fifth Avenue Books: Used bookstore. I sell a lot of books to them after I read them. It's not much, but it's better than nothing. They have a good mystery / crime section.
Ralph's: Grocery store. Some good deals to be had, especially on stuff that's about to expire.
Babette Schwartz: Kitschy gift shop that no longer exists. They had Day of the Dead stuff and Dia de los Muertos stuff. Bwahahahaha. Wonder Woman lunch boxes, silly cards, a lot of random goofy stuff. Not all of it kid-friendly.
Villainous Lair: A comic book shop. I had a pull list, so they saved the issues I wanted, and I only had to show up and buy them a couple times a year. They give discounts for people with pull lists, so that was cool. I'm just not reading comic books anymore.
