Then click on Target... I print Target coupons and bring manufacturer coupons and snag awesome deals!

I used to go in there and get a huge bag of the best stuff for like $5 or $10. Once I got some 70s nightclub/bar candle holders (with the sparkly glass globe) that had apparently come from an actual disco (where they had spent the intervening years, I don't know); I amassed a huge collection of 60s mod dresses and 70s synthetic printed Oxford shirts (you know, with the outrageous motifs--one had ships in bottles all over it). That store used to be awesome before people discovered it (and let's face it, now that 80s items are vintage, thrift stores aren't what they used to be)!<br /><br />eemoody77 at gmail dot comLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13228161280705592255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-9209560232730667482011-01-22T17:07:14.220+11:002011-01-22T17:07:14.220+11:00Shopping and I go way back ;-)

It's a block size warehouse filled to the rafters with flowers. Even when it's still dark outside it's one of my favorite places. I roam around until later in the morning when you're allowed to buy the flowers "retail" which is still way less expensive then the retail flower shops.<br /><br />After filling my car with flowers wrapped in newspaper, I head over to the garment district and and shop for cotton fabrics to make quilts with. There are blocks and blocks of tiny stores and one great big one. <br /><br />It's a field day full of fabric and flowers and my idea of perfect shopping.<br /><br />Hope all's well and your settling into your new home. xo jjJoanna Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10836376588710862173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-37387375004084794852011-01-22T01:55:53.413+11:002011-01-22T01:55:53.413+11:00I wish there was a toy store like that here in Ore...I wish there was a toy store like that here in Oregon!<br /><br />My favorite place to shop is unconventionally the local Goodwill. It's a treasure trove of items that beckon me to browse every aisle from the clothes, books to games and kitchen knick knacks. I've found some wonderful things that were donated.

They are very consistent with the quality that they sell and they have a wonderful selection, which isn't always easy to find.

I do believe it's going to be the Kindle just because so many people are pointing (nudging) me in that direction. I don't suppose you've got one, too? I've heard Amazon doesn't charge freight to Hawaii.

Yeah, its everything you think it would be with an overwhelming "chocolatety" smell even. They not only sell candy and personalized chocolate bars, but they make milkshakes with real ice cream too. And then when you are all chocolated up, you step outside and enter into their amazing amusement park.
