Shops

Although chain stores like Walmart exist here in Buenos Aires, anything you could need can be found in a specialty “shop”.  That’s what they call stores here...“shops.”  I don’t know if this is unique to Argentina, but there is seriously a shop for everything…there are of course the standard shops that sell average things like clothing, shoes, toys, and food…but then there are shops that sell “specialty items,” for example, there is the shop that sells only remote controls, the shop that sells only cookies, backpacks, cheese, homemade pasta, and yes…there is even a shop that sells mannequins.
