Use to be virgin before I got a lovefilm subscription. So now I guess it has to be WH Smiths. For there magazine selection. Other than that and food shops, I buy everything online. Cheaper and less effort.

For me it's either Lush or shops that sell amusing t-shirts

I know the son of the owner of Lush

Annnd! I know the chap producing the movies for Retro Lush

Went to school with them and lived with one at Uni! Bunch of nuts - but highly lovable

John Lewis is always a biggy for me - has a department for everyone to play in - all of their stuff is quality and they price match!
Warehouse clothes wise (if I had the monies

) Or good old dingles as it has a mix of shops
Any form of Card shop - can't help it - it's my business!
Ikea - Two words here - SWEDISH MEATBALLS!

I also like wee little weird shops with odds and sods in it! Oh and Currys and things like that can be good to go into so I can oooo and ahhhh at all the things I can't afford

I like Petit Bateau, but hardly ever get to go there.

Lush/Bodyshop are always good.

Lakeland's usually worth a look too... Ooh and craft shops

Bookshops - I try not to buy from them as you can get better deals online but I love the atmosphere and smell of them

Admiral Huddy · 16-09-2008, 10:13

Guitar, Amp & Keyboard - a Guitarists dream world of a shop. I love spending time in the shop. The staff there are almost without exception superb and always able to offer very good advice, even to the point of recommending cheaper instruments that they feel will suit what you're looking for most.

Half the shops down the Laines in Brighton. Loads of little quirky shops down there that I love to amble around if I get the time
