These photos were taken on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, and traditionally the start of the Christmas shopping season here. On this day, same with other retailers, Best Buy opened at 4am and offered huge discounts and promotional sales to all customers. Some even camped out in front of their stores 2 days before Black Friday to take advantage of the featured deals. This particular branch located at San Bruno was so full it took at least 2 to 3 hours to reach the cashier counters. It was announced that their huge sale will extend until Cyber Monday, the marketing term for the Monday immediately after Black Friday, which is fast becoming to be the biggest online shopping day in the US - CBD

Stonestown Galleria is located in San Francisco along 20th Ave. and near the San Francisco State University. Its a fairly sized mall, similar with SM Sta, Mesa and has Nordstrom, Macys, Trader Joe's and Borders Books as anchors. The interior design of the mall reminds me so much of Glorrieta. Its like a mini Glorietta with its small center court, dramatic skylines, the white columns, clean hallways, an elegant foodcourt and an upscale clientele. Their other high end tenants are Apple, See's Candies, Bath and Body Works, The Body Shop, Godiva Chocolatier and Coach. In addition are classy restaurants like Boudin Bakery and Cafe, Chevy's Fresh Mex, Nordstrom Cafe, Olive Garden and Starbucks. For the shopaholics, besides Macys and Nordstrom, you can shop at Nine West, Victoria's Secret, Gap, Eddie Bauer, J. Crew, Ameican Eagle, Lucky Brand Jeans, Banana Republic, Forever 21, GUESS, Footlocker and H&M. An added feature of this mall is their Stonetown Farmer's Market, held every Sunday, showcasing local merchants and certified farmers with a wide variety of quality produce and other specialties - CBD Westlake Shopping Center is the next best shopping destination in Daly City. Anhored by TJ Maxx, Home Depot, Ross Dress for Less, Trader Joe's, Safeway, Walgreens, Burlington Coat Factory and DSW Shoes. The design of the center is comaprabale to that of Greenhills Promenade, Eastwood City and Metrowalk where shoppers are provided with wide, tree-lined promenade and convenient walkways to access the stand alone establishments. Being situated in Daly City and just like Serramonte Center, this mall is popular amongst kababayans. There used to be a Gerry's Grill here but recently closed. I heard Pinoys found it a little expensive compared to their competitors and nearby food outlets. Other popular outlets located here are Starbucks, Jamba Juice, Chipotle Mexican Grille, Subway and newly opened Wingstop. We will review all these retail and restaurant outlets as we go along in the next blogs - CBD Attended the annual Leland Avenue Street Fair last Sept. 19. Its an event where local retailers, vendors, artists and local service providers lined up in this street of downtown Visitacion Valley to celebrate the new streetscape and renovation of Leland Avenue. This location is at the San Francisco and Daly City border near the grounds of Mclaren Park, Cow Palace and Candlestick Park. The set up reminded me of the Sunday fair which Tomas Morato Avenue used to have in the early 90's where the visitors and guests are all from the community and nearby residents. It offered a live entertainment, great food, info on community projects and a lot of retail products - CBD |
