Dick's... If you go into any Dick's Sporting Goods anywhere in the country, they are all pretty…read moremuch the same.

I needed to grab a pair of shoes and some clothing for a man who was in need of help on Tuesday…read morenight, and this was the closest shop I could find that had both shoes and clothing, including t-shirts, briefs, pants, and socks. I didn't see the Kohl's across the lot until after I spent nearly $200 here. Even the same items are priced so high here. The cheapest shoes I could find were $99 and they were wrong size so I passed on those. You tick the size and style into a kiosk and then a worker brings the shoes to you, but she brought a women's 7 instead of a man's 7, and it was too late to re-do the process so I just skipped buying the shoes. The line at checkout was super long, too. I don't think I'll come back here.

It took me 2 or 3 full winters but I lucked out and came across a pair of skate skis that were the right size and reasonably priced. If you want to try out a new activity but don't want to pay full price for equipment, start checking inventory a few months before the season starts for the best chance at a good selection. Selection tends to be pretty good early on for the popular sports.

While doing some browsing in the mall Champs caught my eye with a sign for $12.99 stocking caps…read more They had a Packers one that was pretty cute, but as winter is winding down I decided not to let myself buy a hat when I have a new Madison Capitols hat that I bought earlier this season. As an indoor kid there wasn't much else to keep me there - basketball shoes hold no appeal to me (save gold Dunks because I am a tacky MF). I'll keep them in mind for next winter though for a new Packers hat!

I went to this champs on....Monday? Anyway, I saw a pair of Jordan's I wanted to buy for a gift, so…read moreI asked an employee if he had it in size 11. As he was answering me he was also talking to another employee about something irrelevant (rude) and eventually stated that they only had it in size 13. Bummed, I left the store and searched around elsewhere but couldn't find anything as perfect as the shoes... so I went back to champs to ask the employee what the exact shoe was so I could look it up online. He showed me but then said "good luck finding it online I don't think you'll be able to because it's probably an older kind and that's probably why we don't have more sizes" (why would you say that? Again, rude) when I left the store I searched the shoes and found them online... kind of felt like going back in there to show the employee... nice shoes, unfriendly and unhelpful employees.

It's gated but my kiddo loves being able to see "Bucky's House!" Cool tip for out of towners. Prices are expensive, nothing like a $30 shirt and $75 jacket but what do you expect. Maybe not the best place to buy economical fan gear but they do have a nice, quality selection! The clearance rack has served me well! Very clean spot to shop around or see the field. Customer service is always friendly. No doubt we will come back as we can!
