The ~~ I Wanna ~~ thread might be a good start. Brick and Mortar (or B&M) refers to the actual physical retail store - not an Internet store.

Seeing how this is such a common question maybe the mods could make a short sticky post called Commonly Used Acronyms with all the usual stuff like B&M, YMMV, MIR.. etc, etc,
