I am a big fan of the Whole Foods grocery stores. I first started shopping at their stores in NJ, then in Texas and now in Minneapolis, MN. They carry great products that are good for you. You can find everything a normal grocery store would have except is natural and earth friendly. Their produce is fresh and comes in both regular and organic varieties. They stock all kinds of uncommon herbs and sprouts. They meat and fish departments offer wonderful cuts of meat and seafood, all naturally raised without hormones, antibiotics or unsafe raising standards. On the weekends they sample their products for folks to taste. Some people say their prices are high and I will agree to some extent. The key is buy stuff on sale. I care about the quality of the food I eat so spending a little extra for the benefit of my health is worth it to me.

If you sew I suggest visting Hancock Fabrics in Bloomington in the Southtown shopping center. They carry an extensive supply of notions and supplies as well as fabric, home decorating essentials and quilting stuff. It is not as large as a Joann superstore but I have found that if a certain item is not available at the large, popular chain stores I am likely to find it at this smaller craft store. Recently I was on the hunt for a magnetic snap used in making purses and tote bags and I could not find it anywhere. On a whim I drove over to Hancock's and they had plenty and in several finishes! They are known to have some great deals on patterns. I have purchased many different brands during their $1 promotions. They also send out coupons if you sign up for their circular. This is a great store for those who sew!

I learned to sew early this year and found I was lacking in useful notions and supplies. I visited the Joann superstore in Edina and I was in heaven. The store is really large and is laid out according to craft categories. My favorite section is the sewing area which is also their largest section. They carry a wide assortment of notions, fabrics, patterns and other supplies. I can easily spend hours perusing their aisles of goodies. My favorite part of Joann's is their great prices! Not only do they have good deals but they send out 40% coupons if you sign up for their circular. You can receive coupons by email and regular mail. On average I have 2 to 3 of these coupons in my purse per week! With a nicely staffed store you will always find a sales associate for any questions or product information. They have a large parking lot and great store hours. I highly recommend it to all crafter's!
On a side note, I found out they offer different level classes for a variety of crafts such as sewing, knitting, quilting, etc. The prices seem high to me considering I took classes at night at my local high school community program for half the cost.

Whether you're in the mood for italian, chinese, or thai food you will find something to satisfy your craving. They offer all kinds of noodles in a variety of sauces. In addition they serve salads, soups and other choices without noodles. I like their casul atmosphere and find the prices to be very reasonable.

If you're looking for unusual clothing and gifts you should check out this colorful store. The exterior is painted lime green with purple and fuschia accents giving it a whimsical feel. They carry clothing for woman and little kids. You will also find interesting stationary and jewelry. The prices are a bit high but unique and sometimes handmade items will cost that much.

For a craving of real Italian pizza Punch's is your place. They offer many combinations or you can customize it. The line can be long during the weekend but it's worth it. Once your pizza is prepared and placed in the hot wood-burning oven it only takes 90 seconds to cook. I find that it's best to eat in the restaurant if you can find a seat. It doesn't taste as good cold.

You can buy a membership to be part of the co-op. This offers extra discounts on products. I find them to have limited products and higher prices.
