sweetdiggity Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Do you have to travel far to shop at your favorite stores on BF? Or do you live pretty close to the stores that you shop at? I'm lucky, I have a lot of stores under 3 miles from my house, and they're almost all on the same street. Kmart is the closest, just about 2 miles from me. Walgreens is across the parking lot from Kmart, and Walmart is just 3 blocks or so up the street. Target is close to Walmart. They are separated by Rainbow Foods and a parking lot. LOL There's also a Menards, CVS Pharmacy, Lowe's and Home Depot in the same vicinity, just across the street. Up the street from Target is Best Buy. I love it!

Ohiocat2382 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 My brother, who is my typicall BF partner, and I did not work out a good plan last year. We knew what we wanted and what store had it, but we didn't stop to plan what order we would visit the stores after the first one. Even though everything was in about a 15 mile radius I swear we drove over the same bridge 6 times last year. It had to have been at least 100 miles by the end of the day. This year we will have ALL the details planned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spotted1 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Depends on what I'm going for... if I'm just hitting walmart and/or kmart, I can be there in about 45 minutes (one way.) If I'm planning to hit anything in a mall, or to price match KB Toys at walmart (because you can not PAY me enough to squeeze into KB Toys on black friday!) then I have to go an hour and a half north (one way)..

LainieB Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Most of the stores are only a few blocks away from my house. Although, there has been some talk of driving 45 minutes away this year to hit some stores we don't have here (JcPenneys, Sears, and some other mall stores).

biggerbear16 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Well none of my stores are even remotely easy to get to from the others (except BB and CC), so probably about 30-40 miles to get to all the stores and then another 20 back to my house from there.

arci122 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 About 50 minutes for the first stop area, then after we hit a large shopping area, we travel another 45 minutes to hit a great mall that has a christmas tree shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
