Re: QOTD: Wednesday

  • so many choices!! 

    though i'd probably go with boden since i loooove their clothes and could definitely use some wardrobe updates!

  • being practical Target:-)
  • Would Merrifield Garden Center count?  If so, I choose that.  I want to buy a bunch of plants for our yard and I don't want to be all MM about my selections!

    Otherwise, I don't know.  Maybe amazon?  Other than plants, I'm not needing large quantities of anything or anything expensive.  Until I get a real job, I'm not buying anymore "nicer" clothes, just casual stuff on sale.

  • Yikes - that is just overwhelming! I would have to say the Apple store because I desperately need a new computer.

  • Can I get one to a car dealership?  Big Smile

    If not, I'd go with BJ's.  We seem to be able to spend several hundred dollars there at the drop of a hat.

  • I was going to say Target, but after pp said Amazon, I realized that would probably be even better. I buy a ridiculous number of things using amazon prime.

    Yes

    I have to agree on Apple store. I reeeeeeally want an iPhone but I'm not eligible until June 2012.

    If we're being practical, Amazon. I too am an Amazon Prime addict.

  • Costco - there's so many day to day things that we buy from there. - and - you can use it to buy gas!! 

  • Pratically, amazon.com

    But I could really use a new wardrobe so I'll say Macys.

  • Today I would choose Crate & Barrel, because I am eyeing a cute kitchen table that I think I am going to buy myself for my birthday... but any other day I'd take Ballard Designs or Frontgate.  I love their home decor stuff but it tends to be a little on the pricey end so I would love to have a "free" $500 to spend on their stuff.

     

  • West Elm.  I really want side tables and a coffee table for our living room.  We've been using the nightstands from a guest room, and they look awful!
  • Amazon for sure, if I'm being practical.

    If I'm being selfish, Joann or G Street Fabric- quilting supplies are exp!

  • Pottery Barn, we've been hemming and hawing about taking the office furniture plunge.  That would make a nice dent in the final price.
  • Practical - Target.

    But I'd like to spend it at REI or another one to use it on Frye boots.  (I finally just got a pair of boots with DH's blessing, but Keen's from REI with my member discount. Whoop!)

    Someone posted on F&B that they're on sale at Piperlime right now! 

    For me (old lady alert), I'd have to say Talbots. I've really been liking a lot of their stuff lately, and I need to do some amping up of my fall wardrobe.

    Mwah!  Thank you for that tidbit :)

  • For Practical, Trader Joes.

    For the not so practical- Piperlime or West Elm

  • Bed Bath & Beyond because I love that store and could easily spend $500+.
  • ZGallerie.

    We've been eyeballing a couple pieces of furniture there plus I love a lot of their decorations.

  • Michael Kors. I spend a ridiculous amount of money there quite a bit.
  • Anthropologie. You know, so I could dress in expensive clothes that are trying really hard not to look like expensive clothes.
  • Wegmans or Target, but probably Target!

    C&B is my favorite store on the planet (always has been, even as a little kid back when it was in Pentagon City), but I'm not in need of anything at the moment. :(

  • What would I like?  Max Mara

    What would be more practical for me?  Talbots

    What would be my first choice for my family?  Pottery Barn Kids

    What would be the most practical and what I would probably go with?  Target.  sigh.

  • Target if I'm being practical, H&M if I really want new clothes!
