Have you ever wanted to bum around your local mall just like TS and Brodie in “Mallrats”? How about gallivanting around Rodeo Drive like Julia Roberts in “Pretty Woman”? Yes? Then you’re ready for a shopping road trip for the stars.

Places to Shop

This list of some of Hollywood’s hottest films showcases the best shopping destinations in the United States. Find out where some of Cinema’s classics were filmed, and shop until you drop like Tinsel Town’s top celebrities.

1. Bloomington, Minn. – While Arnold Schwarzenegger may not be your picture of perfection, in 1996 his Christmas classic “Jingle All the Way” was filmed in America’s shopping mecca – Mall of America. This megamall boasts 4.2 million square feet of shopping space, making it a more popular tourist destination than Disney World, the Grand Canyon and Graceland combined, according to the St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture.
2. Chicago– Michigan Avenue, also known as the “Magnificent Mile,” was not only the backdrop of “Transformers 3” but also is the set of some of the most fantastic shopping in America. Flagship brands line both sides of the street for tourists and Chi-Town residents alike to buy everything from an inexpensive pair of jeans to a wedding dress for your big day.

   

3. Los Angeles  – The TV show “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” has long led viewers to L.A.’s gated communities of stars. But you don’t have to live like a star to shop like one. Meander down Rodeo Drive à la Julia Roberts in “Pretty Woman” or shop ‘til you drop on Wilshire Boulevard like Cher in the cult classic “Clueless.” Or, if laid-back beach chic is more your style, visit the palm tree-lined streets of Venice Beach, now offering more than just bikinis and beach cover-ups.
4. Miami  – From Miami Vice to Rebecca Bloomwood’s shopping fiascoes in “Confessions of a Shopaholic,” Miami has long been known for its coastal shopping. From Coconut Grove to Coral Gables, the shopping centers sound as tropical as the city’s well-known flavor and vibe.

   

5. New York City – Bring your breakfast to the sidewalk outside of famed Tiffany & Co. à la Audrey Hepburn; hit up the big box stores in Times Square; peruse chic boutiques in Soho; or become one of the ladies who lunch on Fifth Avenue like the fashionistas of “Sex and the City” or “The Devil Wears Prada,” where haute couture comes with a hefty price tag.” Or feast on candy and window shop until your heart’s content like Buddy the Elf in the holiday classic “Elf.”

So what are you waiting for? Take a road trip to the nearest star-studded shopping mecca and shop ‘til you drop à la the movies that helped make those places even more famous than they already were. But before you hit the road or the stores, remember to get some affordable quotes on liability car insurance to help you save money, so you have more cash on hand to spend at the stores you love. And request insurance quotes online to help you save time before your next shopping adventure and then get ready to begin your next retail adventure.
