| - The ABC store chain is expanding in Las Vegas- a great resource for souvenirs, snacks (baked goods, japanese rice crackers), food (like spam musubi), drinks (soda, water- the most reasonable price, etc.), alcohol (pretty impressive), magazines, t-shirts (cute characters like Hello Kitty), keychains, toiletries, and of course Hawaiian products (nuts, oil, lotion, etc.). On the island of Oahu, there are tons of these stores- and we've been to about 80% of them! (kinda like the 7-11 stores here but more concentrated, with a couple on the same block). It isn't quite the same as the ones in Hawaii- there's tons of Las Vegas souvenirs and LV themed chocolates, , for instance. This is the one of the first ones to pop up here- "the 9th island" as they say. But, if you go to Hawaii and you forget a few things for your family or friends, you can get the chocolates here; it won't be as cheap, but it will do just fine (especially with the luggage fees and all- if you find that you are short on room/space in your bags because you've shopped too much).
The staff is nice and helpful. It's always well-stocked and clean. Too bad, we just can't get the pancake mix since it was discontinued (sending over to LV, I mean). But whenever we're at this mall, we stop by and browse.
