Europe Old Fashioned Bakery and Deli Port Coquitlam, B.C.

Kohl’s Department Store
To be honest, a lot of my clothes come from this store. Being a nineteen-year old female, I shop in the juniors section. Not only are the clothes fashionable, they’re also inexpensive. In my opinion, Kohl’s is an all-in-one department store. I admit they don’t have a food section …

Piggly Wiggly of Phenix City Alabama
