You get better refund/return policies while shopping and generally, the response to customer complaints is better (even in restaurants. For example, we send back food and drinks we don't like or if they had gotten our specific instructions like no onions wrong, at no charge normally). Tipping is a norm which needs some getting used to but we pay 10% service charge and 5% service tax here in Malaysia for some restaurants right? At least we know the tip is going to the people who are serving, we don't know where our 10% service charge goes to. :D Yes, Puma shoes are the in thing there for the last few seasons. Can't find the same ones here, the Pumas here look horrible the last I checked a few weeks ago. I miss shopping there. As consumers in the US there are tradeoffs.

But shopping in US more fun cause they really discount on the items not like Malaysia, they usually markup the price and discount for us somemore sometime is factory items for sale in the branded shop. First time drop by, nice blog and pic :)
