When asked, I tell everyone that I live in suburban mini-mall hell. But the truth is that while I find all these strip malls. and regional malls, and mega-malls hideously ugly I love that I can find whatever I need within a 30 minute drive. Two Apple stores, two Fry’s Electronics, about 140 theater screens, a Costco just about a block away from a Sam’s Club just down the road from one of those Supercenters. It boggles my mind. I love that they are not going to close the Albertson’s on the corner and that my Safeway delivers. All that is missing is a Peets.

Number 8 – Presh’s Shopping Nirvana. You know this is why we moved here. Biltmore, Chandler Fashion, all of Scottsdale.

Counting down the top 30 things I (and Presh) love about Phoenix as we head towards our one year anniversary here at MetroBlogging PHX.
