In my personal and business travels, I often end up at a Costco. On the Hawaiian Islands or in Iceland, that's a must to keep costs down. One time on a work trip in Washington State, it was dinner at the food court.
On my recent excursion to Calgary, it was to research laptop selection, find some wine to bring back to the Hotel, to observe regional retail differences, to enjoy some people watching, and of course figure out where to park. Same as it ever was!
