Scan Design does indeed carry the best quality and design in furniture, at a very high cost. I went in looking for a shoe rack and it was almost $300. Needless to say, I walked out empty handed.
I have to admit that they carried many sophisticated pieces and would look great in any home or office. It will probably make you look very wealthy.
The customer service was not perfect. I suppose they are used to catering to business execs and wealthy individuals, so they did not bother with me. So unless you have the money or look like you have the money, don't expect too much from the workers. But it's worth a browse!

This is a great furniture store and showcases many different types of furniture and arrangements. They set up a whole living room or bedroom for you and you just fall in love with it. When you buy one item, you want to buy everything else to match it! It prices are comparable to most of the furniture stores on the island. The quality is good so I'm sure it is worth it to buy and it will last you forever.
Since some many people are buying new homes these days, these furniture stores can be packed but DeZign Home still keeps its customer service their priority. They were very warm and welcoming.

I drool each time I think about their Pineapple Ice Cream. They are the best hands down! Everytime I get a chance to drive down that way, I always stop in for some. Of course, maybe it is because it gets a little hot in the afternoon =) The Dole Plantation is a local and tourist attraction and a great place to buy cute little souvenirs.
The pineapple display will amaze you because I didn't even know there were so many different types of pineapples and from so many different places.
The maze is probably one of the largest human maze in the world and it's fun to try it once. It's not big enough for you to get lost but watch out for the mosquitos!
There is also a huge koi pond there filled with kois. You can buy food to feed the fishes or you can just watch them swim around for free. Go walk around and check out their cuttings!

The USS Arizona Memorial is a great tourist attraction but locals should go experience too. You get to see a lot of artifacts and see the history of Hawaii. You also get a little ride on the ship. It's worth the experience.
USS Arizona Memorial is always filled with people wanting to get in. So buy your tickets early and prepare to wait in line. Like I said, if you haven't already been there, you should definitely go!

Loco Boutique is located in the Outrigger East Hotel between RoundTable Pizza and Keoni by Keos. It is a cute little boutique that attracts a lot of Japanese tourist. They carry a lot of different swimwears that are so cute! They usually sell bikinis and some one pieces as well as other beach dresses. The designs are not typical either, they have really cute designs on them or the cut is just very unique.
Watch out though because their sizes run a little small!

I love scrap book making and I was thrilled to run in to ScrapBook Clubhouse while driving to Pearlridge Mall. The store is filled with ideas for your own scrapbook. They carry tons of different paper (I did not know paper came in such different textures until I went there) and stamps and stickers and more!
The prices are really not bad for the material and quality you get. The store is well organized and the staff is very helpful.

Maunakea Street Florist is a small mom and pop flower shop on Maunakea Street that still offers a good price for a nice lei and typical flower arrangements. The staff is friendly and they give very good suggestions. I have often ordered roses for Mother's Day and Graduation and they always do a very good job for a fraction of what other florists charge. AND their flowers are so fresh too!
Once I stopped by during Mother's Day and I was still able to pick up some flowers for my mom. I couldn't believe they weren't sold out like many others have.

Foodland Super Market has really cleaned up its act in the past few years and is much more competitive with their sales and selection. I, for one, has become a regular client and have my own "Maika'i" card to qualify for their discounts.
What I really love about Foodland is that they have a Deli section as well as a gourment section with fine cheeses, wines, and other delicasies. Sometimes I like to cook as steak dinner and I can just stop in at Foodland and pick up everything I need.
Its fast becoming my favorite grocery store.

Francis Camera on Kapiolani Blvd does seem to attract clients who are very knowledgeable and are professionals in the photography field. I also agree that the staff there did not have much patience for us newbies asking questions. I felt inferior to them and they did not seem to want me touching their equipment.
If you are looking for an expensive camera and have the money to spend on it, then go to Francis Camera because they will probably carry it. Otherwise, go to Shirokiya or CompUSA because the staff is more helpful and patient with people browsing around.

Located in the Ala Moana Shopping Center, is a busy little store called High Performance Kites. The store is small but it is filled with fun things to buy. I bought several christmas gifts at High Performance Kites for my brother and cousins. They sell all types of toys besides kites, such as yoyos, collectors cards, etc. I like this store because it provides ideas for out door activity for kids, rather than having them stay home and play with video games.
During christmas time, a lot of kids hang out at the store and their hottest items are always sold out.
