 | Colorado Shopping | Tips 1 - 10 of 17 |  |
by Astrobuck Everything from camping, hiking, fishing, exercise equipment, etc. It's all here! Used to be called Galyans...now called Dick's Sporting Goods.
Tents, Yoga Mats, baseball gloves, ski goggles, (you get the picture...basically everything).
Dick's has very good quality stuff, but expect to pay a little higher than average prices than you normally would. Leave a Comment Theme: Sporting GoodsAddress: Powers Blvd.Directions: Take Academy Drive south to Dublin. Take a left on Dublin, pass the Oak Shop and the car care garage. Follow Dublin until you reach Powers Blvd. Take a right onto Powers, follow a few miles. Dick's is in the shopping center to your left.

This is an area of Colorado Springs called "Old Colorado City." It was a thriving city in the 1800's; today it is full of shops and restaurants. Everything from custom made rustic wood furniture to military surplus, this place has it all.
Anything you want.
Prices depend on the store you are in. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Colorado SpringsDirections: Take US HWY 24 West toward Manitou Springs. Take a right at the large sign that says "Old Colorado City." At the next stoplight, take a left. You will drive right into it.

by Astrobuck This shop is just like Galyans, but not as expensive; especially if you go through the REI outlet. If you go online to the REI outlet link below, you can order what you want or need at the outlet price, and then turn around and pick it up at the REI store! Just remember....if you go through the REI outlet, it is cheaper than going through the actual store.
Camping, rockclimbing, and other outdoors equipment.
Expect to pay average, unless you go online to the REI Outlet. (Be sure you click on the REI Outlet tab). Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Woodmen Road behind Home DepotWebsite: www.rei.com

by Astrobuck Everything from Borders to JC Penney. This is the best mall to go to if you are a mall going type of person. There is also a second mall, called Citadel Mall, but I haven't been there yet to check it out. Chapel Hills Mall even has an indoor ice skating rink.
Everything you could possibly think of. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Academy BlvdDirections: Take I-25 to Academy Blvd / CO 83 South. Go through 2 stoplights. Mall is 1/2 mile on your left.

by Astrobuck This is a coin collector's shop. The owner has a few antiques, but a lot of the stuff I saw was nothing but junk. He has old indian arrowheads for sale, gold nuggets, and a few bowie knifes. However, the owner is very nice, and seems to be very respectable. I needed to obtain some coins for my collection, and he was willing to trade me instead of having me fork out much money. I managed to almost finish my collection because of him. I also bought a few 2005 Silver Eagles from him, at a good price too! He has coins from practically everywhere in the world, and has so many contacts, he can put you up with someone who has something you are looking for in case he doesn't have it. If you are a coin collector passing through, stop in and see what he has to offer.
Coins mostly...some paper money as well. Leave a Comment Theme: HobbiesAddress: 123 S. 5th Canon City, CO 81212Phone: 719-269-7507Directions: Drive through the main road. You will see the shop on the right hand corner going west. There is a big parking lot next to the store and the Chamber of Commerce. If you pass the Chamber of Commerce, you've gone too far.

Cute little store where they sell imports from Sweden. They do carry some Swedish candy etc. so you Swedes abroad can satisfy your cravings. If you speak Swedish, ask for the owner, he speaks Swedish (with a heavy American accent) and he would be happy to chat with you for a while! Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Main Street.Phone: (970)453-6620Directions: On Main Street kinda in the middle. On the right hand side if you are facing the slopes.

by Astrobuck This is a combination store of practically everything you can possibly think of. Primarily, it is an antique store, but there is also furniture, books, collectibles, and anything else you may be seeking. I found a few things here to finish a couple of my collections. Prices vary, so check around within the store, because there may be more than one. Leave a Comment Theme: AntiquesDirections: At the intersection of Academy and Constitution.

Colorado Springs does not lack in the shopping department! All along Academy Boulevard are numerous malls and shopping centers. What I liked was that you were not limited to one store owner's high price for an item, you had many similar shops to "price" compare with. The boulevard is busy with traffic, so shop early.
Colorado is not overly expensive if you're away from the tourist and resort areas. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Along Academy Boulevard

This mall has everything you could want. Neiman Marcus, Saks, Anthropologie, Burberry, Gap, Banana Republic. Then across the street you have the Cherry Creek North with the cute botiques and smaller name shops. And good restaurants throughout. They have an outdoor ice skating rink in the winter.
