Devin and Andy visit <a href="https://www.partycity.com/">Party City</a> to gather material for the party that is this podcast. Can a store greeting embody the whole of its shopping experience? Does the party supply game always come down to balloons? Should a party store be intentionally bland so as not to upstage the actual parties they’re supplying? Can an impressive selection of Pop Rocks and Big League Chew make up for shortcomings elsewhere?

The Marshalls Shopping Experience

Full Carts is a podcast about shopping experiences. In each episode, hosts Devin and Andy visit a store and discuss what it was like, along with any thoughts and memories that get churned up. They then distill their observations into a highly subjective Cart Score of 1-4 Carts: How well did it work for them? The show is founded on an appreciation of the human desire to understand, express, and improve ourselves through our things, and an affection for the people and places behind memorable shopping moments. Affable consumption under capitalism.
