I love HomeGoods and T.J.Maxx!! so I don't go there often. We also have some good thrift stores in our area. I almost always find some good stuff. I also have too many perfect thrift cashmere sweaters!

I also forgot the christmas tree shop, there is one near me and I go in there all the time. Although most of the knick nacks I end up buying there, I actually use.

Barnes and Nobles, and Yankee Candle. Of course, it's hard NOT to spend a fortune when you walk into Yankee. Same with Barnes and Nobles . . . books are so pricey.


Also spend a lot of money at Target. >.<

Bath & Body Works.

Last year I spent an absurd amount of money there, this year I have gotten my addiction under control.

Oh I forgot about Lush! Even though we have a store locally, I order online.

Used to be Lush. Then Lucky Brand. Now Lululemon. Sooooo if a store starts with Lu then I guess I have to check it out lol. My current addiction though is gym clothes and gear (yoga,water bottles/belts, etc) bought anywhere, I really need to stop.

I'm an Amazon junkie. Can get everything I can't find in my small town through Amazon.

I'm grateful I don't live close to a Whole Foods...really, REALLY grateful.

I'm a slut for HomeGoods too.

TJ Maxx/Marshalls, Target, Amazon.com. Anywhere that sells a huge variety of inexpensive things.

Wow! What a wonderful bunch of shoppers we are. I frequent Costco andTrader Joe's both of which require an out of town trip. I have Amazon Prime and keep my credit card well "oiled" with them. I have to say that I recognize just about every mentioned venue.

I don't like Kohl's very much because not only do they have the fake sales, they have stuff stacked all over the place like Mervyn's did before they went out of business. A niece told me that the Kohl's in AZ is nice, but I haven't seen any nice ones near me.

I have recently become enamored with Apple products - I got a free iPhone 4 with my contract. The Apple stores in the mall are very nice. Elegant. Simple. Tasteful. Spendy. I want an iPad mini really badly.

I just had a thought: an iPad if I get back on track and loose the last 20 lbs. w00t!!!!!

MAC and Body Art Forms, for sure are my top. Makeup and body jewellery are my guilty pleasures.

Also, Costco - cause I feel like every time I go is like that episode of Modern Family when Mitchell goes there for the first time. And I can spend a lot in Winners, Sephora, any Roller Skate shop, etc.

Of late it definitely hasn't been in clothing or beauty products places since I was so discouraged about my weight . . . : but I'm looking for that to change. : I get a good percentage of my clothes at thrift stores when I do go clothes shopping though.

Mainly I'm a books and stuff geek. I try to order used books online or find them at thrift stores, book sales, etc.

Artistic, craft, and sewing/quilting supply stores are dangerous . . .

Books (ebooks too) and gadgets, so Amazon, Best Buy, etc. I'd be a very well-dressed person if I spent on clothes what I spend on gadgets & books! That said, I do spend money at sports stores for running & biking gear.
