I used to do alot of food shopping in one of the larger chain supermarkets, but I've looked around and found local food to be much better quality, so now I get meat from a local butcher, fish from a market, and veg from the greengrocer or country market. Basic grocery I still get from the supermarket, until I can afford to buy from organic suppliers online. Gifts and books I buy online though.

I do the same, you can't beat getting fresh farm produce, especially home grown, and there's a lot less packaging which is great. I like to shop in corner shops as I feel these big superstores are choking our towns and villages and are putting so many people out of work.

Both-- But mostly Larger superstores.. Super Walmart- Super Target, Wegmans, Tops markets.. They have cheaper prices-- take more coupons- double coupons- have more of a variety of goods, alot more selection. Sure they are closing alot of the mom and pop stores down sue to their pricing-- but if I can keep extra bucks in my pocket- I'm all for it- I work hard for my $$.

Unfortunately I shop at the big chain stores and malls. My husband likes to support the local small businesses, but I can't justify spending more when I can get teh same items at a chain store for less money. My favorite store is Target for household items and stuff for the kids. I go to Gap, Old Navy, The Children's Place and Gymboree for my kid's clothes. I also like Kohls.

I usually buy clothing from anywhere! I make sure it's good quality and that I love it, and i'll buy it! I buy other accessories from walmart, not big on jewlery. shop at wal-mart for necessities!

I do my bulk food shopping at Lidl, and then use a family owner market in town for odds and ends. I get special things at my local coffee shop and bakery.
For clothes I buy whatever catches my fancy. I usually get the kids clothes at the Mall, but we get our shoes at the sports shop in town. We're pretty well catered to right here in our little village so we rarely have to even bother venturing into Swords, let alone Dublin for anything in particular. I like the idea of being able to walk to the shop.

It depends on thing I must buy. If i must buy normal products i prefer the great stores, if I must but products of a certain cost I prefer the specialized shops.
