..on the back of Josy's thread..which shops to you love to browse in/could spend ages in and which ones do you hate going in..?..and why....

[Shaun]

Love... book stores, record stores, most clothes stores (although only if I want to buy something)... specifically? HMV, H&M, New Look, Urban Outfitters, WHSmith, Blockbusters , Game...

Hate... Hollister, Abercrombie & Fitch... those types of store with thudding music and darkness. Nauseating (and overpriced). Also find Apple and most phone stores tedious. Oh and nobody likes being in Argos.

..I'm going off HMV a bit, it's hard to actually see anything because it's so busy and you can't really spend time just browsing..I loved the music stores 'back in the day' when you could chat for hours with people there about stuff you'd never heard before and they even had headphones for you to listen to it...



..I love Waterstones/I could live there...

[Shaun]

yeah the focus towards video games & technology has kinda turned HMV into a bit of a jack-of-all-trades store for media... but still, better than nothing

[Ammi]

..that's what I love about Waterstones as well, there is always someone who works there who has also read the book you are looking for and chats to you about it as well...and we often take the children there for stories and the staff are lovely and don't even expect a donation/there isn't much you can get for free and they're just so happy to do it...

Yeah all of this, more or less. I like browsing in non-clothes shops; clothes shopping is very stressful. I don't like thudding music + darkness type shops, they're unbearable.

[BigSister]

Love: Waterstones love it there, HMV, Whsmiths, New look, Next, H&M, the body shop,
Hate: I know this will be controversial but Primark I just find it too busy. Also card factory and card shops esp at christmas.

[Saph]
