How Many Times do you go to the Apple store?

[2nyRiggz]

ever since i moved from Atlanta to New York....im in the apple store at least twice a week sometimes three.

I live far from the SoHo store but i can't seem to stay away...but i go for the classes then i might happen to pick up a new gadget or so then its off to school.

well over the past 2 weeks i've been to the apple store six times

Maybe 2-3 times a month.

Since there are none around here, I have only ever been to an Apple Store once in my life. It was the SoHo Store in New York a couple years ago, when I was visiting my brother there. I bought my 3G iPod there.

I'm hoping they open a store in Vancouver as their second Canadian location, as that's now where my brother lives and it could be deja vu all over again for me!

Just been to an Apple store once. Ever. To pick up an iPod mini.

Well since I have yet to see a Might Mouse in person, I have not been to an Apple Store since it's been released.

I usually get to mine maybe 5 times a month or so. Theres an awesome Buffalo Wild Wings right next to the Apple store which is a definite pit stop after Apple.

 

[risc]

Never, I'm in Australia we have 0 Apple stores!

I'm not a fan of my Apple store, atleast not for help. They aren't very good w/ that. But besides that, I go there whenever I'm at the mall, which is very rare.

EDIT: Whoah, just noticed that this was not the post I meant to reply to. Whoops.

Here's the one I really meant:

Heh, me too. I think it's been about 5 months for me. Even though there are about 9 Apple Stores within a 1-2 hour drive, the closest one is still 25-30 minutes away. We probably get to one around 4-6 times a year on average.

Same.

Now that we've got iTMS, that's the next thing we can whinge for.

I visit Apple's Soho store twice weekly on average and look forward to stopping in at the new location at 59th Street and Fifth Avenue when it opens.

P.S. I would llike to extend happy birthday wishes to members whose names appeared near the bottom of the opening page ... and, yes, that would include me.

We have 2 malls within about 3 miles from each other where i live. A nice, more down to earth mall thaat caters much more ot my shopping habits. And a ritzy very expensive banana republic type mall that i find disgusting to go to. Guess which one has the Apple Store ? And for that reason I only go to Apple store to make purchases, so ive gone 3 times in last 3 months. Each of the items are in my sig, guess which ones they were.

We've got AppleCentres though

Actually my local one's pretty good, they have examples of every Mac, a good range of software and accessories and not too much iPod.

It's just down on my main road about a 15 minute walk from me, I go in there pretty much everytime I'm down the street.

I would like a big flagship store somewhere, maybe underneath that building next to the Opera House - it would have the best view of any Apple Store.

In the building here behind the flags.

With a view like this... only from a little further round to the right.

It'd be a top spot for an Apple Store.

I think you're onto something. Get a store up there between those two flags, by the orange beacon. Of course, it's a bit of a climb, but you have to work for your Mac. It makes it all that much sweeter.

Ah, thanks for the pics, those bring back fond memories. I backpacked through Australia a couple years ago and seeing Sydney again is great.

Yeah, imagine getting a PowerMac and a display down - you'd have to do two trips...

 

[devilot]

Maybe once a month-- used to be more but I'm semi-boycotting the two closest to me because, well, because the manager and one of her cronies are so mean to me.

 

[clayj]

At least once a week... mostly just to see what iPod accessories they have in.

 

[wordmunger]

I think I've been twice since the Charlotte store opened. What's that, about a year ago? Maybe more. It's about a 45 minute drive, and I already know what a Mac looks like, so I don't see any real reason to make the trip.

I wish I lived near one -- I'd be there all the time!

Which Apple Store? I don't recall a BWW being next to either the Galleria or West County

As for me, once every couple months or so. Was in there last Saturday to get my parents a Mac Mini

 

[wdlove]

I live about ten minutes away from my local Apple Store. It's the Chestnut Hill Mall. Have a very good relationship with the staff. My visits occur on a Sunday, usually 2 - 3 times a month.

 

[rockthecasbah]

i live like 15 minutes from the closest Apple Store, and seeing as i am not old enough to drive, im stuck going there...never. It saddens me sometimes

EDIT: wow 500th post! MR forum members, i love you all!
