Macy's has great sales that tempt me out of my afternoon sofa slump on weekends, but I never seem to come home with the items I set out to purchase. That's not to say I come home empty-handed! Macy's seems to bring out the impulse-buyer in me. Could be worse, I tell myself. I could impulse-buy at Nordstrom's. But I prefer Macy's atmosphere and staff, it's that space inbetween Nordstrom's and JC Penneys where everything is still pretty upscale but not completely insane. Pretty sure I drive the lovely folks in the shoe department crazy, though, since I insist on walking around for at least five minutes in every pair of shoes I try on. I've bought too many seemingly perfect shoes only to find myself in crippling back pain or besieged with blisters.
