Like I mentioned in another thread, I'm going to California in April (for a week) and will be staying just outside L.A...well...I CANT go to Cali and not go shopping, that would be insane on my part LOL so does anyone have any suggestions on some good places to shop in the L.A/Hollywood etc area that WONT cost my my husbands liver and kidneys or my childrens limbs etc...are there any "hidden away" type shopping areas that arent total tourist traps? I'd mostly be looking for clothes, shoes and gifts btw...

Hollywood blvd is wall to wall shops and surprisingly a lot of them are inexpensive unlike the stores on Sunset Blvd. Enjoy your shopping trip. Have fun Visit Gromann's Chinese theatre which has grown into it's own mall with a subway station underneath even. Have fun!
