This store has a great selection of lights, however, I've found them to be pretty expensive, and the store is a nightmare if you're taller of stature. My husband flatly refuses to go into the store...

If you're into needleworking, then Needlepoint.com is THE place to go in the triangle for you. They have a stunning array of hand-painted canvasses, hand dyed yarns and wools, and an amazing number of kits.
I have bought a large number of tapestry kits from them, and have been pleased. All of their canvasses come with a binding already sewn on them, so you don't have to worry about it while stitching.
Once you're done with the piece, then they have access to some magnificent tailors who will make your masterpiece into finished perfection.

My absolute favorite mexican food restaurant of all times is Dos Taquitos in North Raleigh. It's a lot more expensive than your typical joints, but the food is to die for. I am especially fond of the steak tacos, and hubby likes the Enchiladas del pueblo.
The decor is something you HAVE to see. When you go in and ask for a table, if there is a wait, you will be given a toy. Possibly a doll, truck, snake, or even a monster. There is an outdoor patio with a folk-art-garbage type fountain, and the decor is shabby chic. Inside there are little huts and the decor is changed very often. it's fun to go and see what has been changed since the last time you went.

We have ordered mulch from these guys, and it was very clean and nice mulch. Most places will deliver mulch with a few bits of trash in it. The loads we ordered were perfectly clean- and no trash was found. AMAZING.
I also wanted to mention that the prices we got from them were significantly better than many of the other big mulch guys in this area- like mulch masters, etc all. So for cleaner mulch, at a better price, this is definetly where I will order my mulch from.
As a sidenote the kids love when the dumptruck comes and covers the driveway in mulch. ;)

This is about my favorite place in the triangle to buy plants. The prices are reasonable, the plants are always healthy, and the staff is always helpful. They have a great selection of plants, statuary, fish pond supplies, a hot house, and a huge selection of gardening and gift items.
If you get the chance to go, don't miss the Seaboard Cafe that's right on site. Yummy. But it's cash only.

These guys do a great job. They don't recommend work you don't need, will happily show you exactly why you DO need things done, and don't do exclusively sedation work. They've done a great job working with me on prevention.

Okay. I admit it. I'm heavyset, and I've got the matching figure to go with it. So, I can't just walk into any store and buy a bra off the rack. I have to go to a bra fitter and get measured and fitted. I've been going back to the Pennyrich Bra patch for years now, and I ALWAYS walk out of the store with a perfectly fitted bra. NO more back pain. no pinching, no straps falling off of my shoulders. AH Relief!

The Southpoint mall is one of the two newest malls in the area. Each store features a little shop front like a building. The ambience is certainly nice. The kids area next to the food court is fun for the youngsters, and the fountains outside are certainly a draw. We love the restaurants, but find the selection of stores to be somewhat lacking. Overall it has a lot of little fu-fu stores that are tremendous fun to look at, lots of restaurants, and a fun place to go.. But not for serious shopping.
