1. I shop for clothing, groceries, jewelry, etc. I'd like to go downtown to
eat at that new ice cream shoppe.

In wood shop, the kids learn how to make a bookcase.

Either/or depending on how it is used.

I don't shoppe for groceries and the kids do not attend a class called wood shoppe.

But an idea is shopped around. :evilgrin:

Shoppe.

12. Shoppe is too pretentious for me.
Edited on Mon Jul-11-05 06:49 PM by jakefrep
It gives off the impression that everything in the store is overpriced crap.

15. Liquor stores and fish -n- chips places..............
are the only acceptable uses of the word "shoppe".
