I have this "thing" where, if I don't like the lighting in a store, I won't shop there. I can't explain it. I won't apologize for it. It's just me and that's that. I also hate eating ice cream with wooden spoons. (And no, I didn't have a horrible ice cream cup / wooden spoon travesty when I was young, I just absolutely can't tolerate the texture.) But I digress.
When I go shopping with my mom it's not unusual for her to hear me say, 'We need to get out of here. The lighting is giving me a headache.' I don't want to be difficult but good lighting, to me, says whether what you are selling has quality, or that it will always have that yellow-ish, brown-ish hue about it. Fluorescent lighting isn't a winner for me, most of the time.
I will say though, that I was pleasantly surprised recently when I went into a store and enjoyed the glow only to find that they were fluorescent lights. Gone were the yellow-ish/brown-ish hues and here we had lovely white/pink/blue-ish hues. Now those colors I can do, and I seem to spend more around that kind of lighting. (Cruel. Yet effective.)
Now you know how I feel about lighting. You don't want to get me started on smells of stores! Oh, no you don't ;->
