Konzum, Banjole, Croatia

Bedo clothing store

Sawgrass Mills Mall - Sunrise, FL
When it comes to shopping malls, they just keep getting bigger and bigger. I won’t state that they’re getting better, just bigger. Sometimes, too big is not better. This mall is one of the prefect examples about how some malls are oversized with shops and not enough size for …
Dollarama in Callindwood, Edmonton, AB
If there are two things I cannot stand, they are
1) Lack of customer service skills

Aldi’s Grocery Store

Wal-Mart Supercenter Store #945 Lubbock, TX
