First non essential shop visit

I presume you have all had your 2nd COVID jabs if you’re all thinking of hitting the shops and hairdressers?

Definitely the hairdresser ?
I’m ashamed to go out my hair looks so bad, I never thought I would be so grateful for the wind

Oh dear, I’m not looking forward to any store shopping! Hated it before the pandemic, blissfully happy with online shopping throughout the lockdowns and no intentions of fighting off hoards or queuing.
I’ve shopped at all my favourite stockists online and got everything I needed.
Socially distanced, mask wearing store shopping has absolutely no appeal to me!
Am I unique?

The Euroshops in Flensburg to buy glue, pens, oven-cleaner , nail varnish, sticky labels and anything else we have run out of once it finally is possible to go to Flensburg again.

Then along to Karstadt the dept. store to buy sewing cotton, tailors' chalk, press studs and hooks and eyes, white and black tape and any other sewing accessories I have run out of.

Dh needs a new pair of Levi's 501 and I need a pair of ecco shoes!

Oh Happy Day! but when? Certainly not April 12th more likely July or August!

Hairdressers, I have an appointment booked and am counting the days!

Oh Karstadt, i got my little decorated birthday candles in there to go with the pretty wooden number stands.
I am wondering if those of you who live in Europe can travel into neighbouring countries as before Covid. Apparently 20,000 people fly into the UK every day, yet we can’t fly out.
Maybe that’s another subject. Just curious.

Hairdresser's then ZARA yay!
I can't buy clothes on line and I love shopping.

No Cleo you are not uniqueI buy pretty much everything online now.

It’s not a shop but I can’t wait to get to the library, I have so missed physical books. I have an iPad with some books on but it’s not the same. My hair is so long down my back but I will wait until the mad rush is over, it doesn’t bother me

My first trip will be the hairdressers. Second trip will be to get a pedicure. All booked in already. Cant wait.

I will never be converted to online shopping.As my friend says "it is fraught with disappointment " Plus the hassle of returning it.
Back to the question.l will be racing to Whitestuff, Seasalt and Clarks shoes.l can hardly wait.
I hate internet shopping with a vengeance!

Quite possibly a clothes shop with my daughter - followed by an appointment at a shoe shop for some school shoes!!

The lovely card shop in our High Street - my son, DIL & GS all have b'days in May, my good friend has a milestone b'day coming up and another friend has recently moved -so I'm looking forward to getting 'special' cards for everyone...?

These have all been open throuhout lockdown, why did you not go,were you shielding?

My local beauty for a pedicure. Hairdresser booked as well.
Next stop fireplace shops so the archaic one can go ASAP.

Dare I say it? Charity shops. I've missed them so much.

It would have been John Lewis, but they have decided shoppers in my town are not worth it. So they are not re opening. Feel very annoyed by the decision.

Barkers in Northallerton - a super, independent dept store which I am sure really needs support. Then buying books in Waterstones and charity shops. Hairdresser booked for early May.

I prefer to wait for my 2nd jab then I'll be more comfortable.
I will try to 'shop local' as much as possible as the little shops have suffered more. The big name shops have managed online and done quite well out of it!

Put the Covid Police uniform back in the wardrobe. It’s never been illegal to shop.

Have really missed rummaging around in charity shops.

I'm looking forward to going to TKMAXX

Charity shops - l have collected two big bags of donations - and l always like the Aladdin's Cave feeling of never knowing what you will find.

I will have had my second jab, but jabs weren't being given when we were last allowed to go to the hairdressers. Really looking forward to going into different shops.

choughdancer I am so glad someone else said "charity shops"
I am longing for a rummage!
