I shop where ever I can get quality at a good price. I agree, some of the big box stores does have good stuff. You have to check it out, feel it, stretch it see if it bounces back, etc. I love sales and if I know one is coming and I can wait, I will. Love thrift stores and yard sales. I great restraint when I try, I can talk myself out of spending money all of the time. That was a hard lesson to teach myself but a worth while one
