Section by section I start to walk through, then towards the end, I can see the light! I'm pushing my cart, grabbing everything that stands in my way, and mindlessly putting things in my cart.. FINALLY, time to pay... "Oh ya, I did guess I did grab that.. I guess I didn't need that.. Oooh that one, it's definitely a must!" Thoughts go through my head as I am ready to check out.. but wait, no credit card? EUROS only? Come on Deutschland, people buy more when they can just put it on a Visa! +1 extra star for their canteen.. it's huge!!

The Galeria Kaufhof was a very pleasant find and shopping experience, well, especially for my wife's expected grand baby shopping frenzy. For me, finding a quiet place to sit, rest the worn feet, and do some people watching was the perfect combination of service and fine hospitality. Once rested, I did browse the racks and displays.

My husband and I are so excited to furnish our flat with this store! The prices were very reasonable! Absolutely love the kitchenware, wall decor, plants and alcohol selection. They have many fun books that I wish I could have purchased and taken home with me but unfortunately I didn't have room in my backpack! The only thing I wish was different would be an Instagram account so I can follow along with what is happening and changing in the store! :)
