One thing I miss from before
good morning!
last month at my surgeon's support group meeting someone said that same exact thing - they miss Avenue and no longer know how to shop...Avenue was my staple - if I needed something for a party or for work or for the holidays they always had SOMETHING for me to wear...it was quick and easy. I have to say I do NOT miss going into that store at all - I have learned how to shop (almost too well 
) in all the other stores now that I can wear "normal" sizes -
I don't miss the store - I miss the ease and convenience of being able to go to one store to shop - well maybe I don't really miss it so much 
) in all the other stores now that I can wear "normal" sizes -
I don't miss the store - I miss the ease and convenience of being able to go to one store to shop - well maybe I don't really miss it so much lol....trust me...I've learned shopping. I've done so much clothes shopping this year!!!!
But I always like avenue's selection and style. I understand they are owned by Learners...but there isn't one of them close. On the otherhand I don't miss Lane Bryant or Dress Barn at all. Although I did have the surreal experience of shopping on the Other side of dress barn last weekend. When I went looking for panty hose--which I haven't bought since surgery, and always needed a bigger size than the box said...the lady says "oh no honey those aren't your size...go to the other rack"
Very funny

Very funny Hi Courtney, you know what I miss - I miss not always knowing the exact size I wear. I used to always get a 3X, top, bottom, extra long tops, stretchy waist on the pants, or long skirts. Now I am never sure what size and I have to try things on, and I always think the tops are too short looking and try them on and they fit. Now don't get me wrong - no way do I want to be a 3X, but the convenience of knowing was nice. I like to buy from catalogs alot and now I am returning!!
Oh well, small price to pay, right!!
love
