Smokedreams in Melbourne. And Peril. Cept it was a bit smokey the first time were ever went in there and when we came out of there we felt kinda high. :\

There's another store in the CBD we frequent which is much like Rare Records in St. Kilda, but I just forgot the name of it.

ahah you actually found out that much about a jayjays sales assistant?

I FRIGGIN LOVE JB-HIFI. I finally got LOTMS!!! for only 17bux!!!
I must've been the most happiest girl ever while watching it...MCR's secret santa presents. And it's kinda cool to hear Gerard's story from him and other MCR guys...and that guy at the recording studios in red shirt- I think the tour manager- he's awesome.

oh and kayles- i figured out where you learnt about Fabreeze. LOL

kayles...are you sure being seen in your underwear is a suitable topic to talk about to someone you've never met? rofl...

i'm kinda sick of not finding things I would wear in shops- or if i find them they're too expensive. I'm going on a massive DIY craze these holidays Very Happy I've made a dress so far...it actually doesn't fall apart!

I love the shorts at Jay Jays. Not too fond of the cut of the jeans though. The t-shirts are really comfy and good quality.

JB freaking rocks!! I saw Three Cheers there for $10 the other day :O

Does anyone know a store in Brisbane (preferable CBD) where I could get a cool satchel bag? I need one for uni.

I love JBHI-FI! You found everything there!
Anyway, I'm not good at knowing about stores, but...
Hot Topic is a store in US right? Is there actually any in Australia? Or do I have to buy online...? If it were in Australia, I need to buy some stuff there right away!

If you want to buy Hot Topic stuff, you'll have to do it online.
Though it's possibly that some of the brands they stock are available in Australia, just obviously not through that particular store.
See, in Adelaide, we have Midwest Trader. And it's seriously awesome for band merch and punk rock/alternative/vintage clothing etc.
I bought Ella an Avenged Sevenfold make-up bag thing from there. XD
And you can get stubby holders with band logos, the best shoes ever, the nicest brands for girls (like Wheels & Doll Baby and Junkfood Clothing) and most of the brands they buy directly from the US.
And to be honest, at first it seems rather expensive, but when you realise how scarce the brands are, it really makes sense.

Me and my boyfriend went Christmas shopping today and ended up buying each other a present from Jay Jays. We ended up being each other camo 3/4 cargos. It was kinda cute how we had matching gifts, yet horrifically sappy at the same time. XDDD

Thanks for letting me know! I can't find any stores in Melbourne that are like Hot Topic.
Does anyone know any stores like that in Melbourne?

Oh no, wait.
