That's funny. I had no idea that all those people whom i work with who take the train to work then shop at Strawbridge's (or elsewhere in the Gallery) on their lunch breaks were so poor. Maybe i'll take up a collection to help them out.

I do 90% of my shopping in CC (grocey, household, clothing, books) because (1) i don't like to get in the car and drive and (2) as El has pointed at least once, anything that requires me to give up my parking spot in WashWest had better be good. Shopping isn't worth sacrificing the spot, or having to put up with suburbanites and their monster SUVs and their road rage.
