This is the place to come for all things Carolina. If you're a Tar Heel fan or know someone who is, you should be able to find everything you need here. This place is called "UNC Student Stores" plural because there are multiple stores inside. They include a mini mart with food and drink ("The Pit Stop"), a pharmacy, and a post office. The stores are intended for students (e.g., books, laptops, school supplies), alumni and fans (e.g., UNC apparel, gifts), employees (e.g., hospital scrubs, lab equipment), anyone really. My wife and I stopped by to pick up some temporary UNC logo face tattoos for a game. I haven't been in many college bookstores. I remember Wake Forest's store being very small, but that was decades ago. The one I'm most familiar with is Georgia Tech's (my alma mater). The two bookstores are similar in size (both large, two stories), inventory, and amenities. For example, there's a cafe on the second floor here, where we saw several students studying. Tech's is similar with a Starbucks. Tech's bookstore is much newer, the current one built in the mid-2000s. From the outside, Carolina's bookstore looks many decades old (I'm guessing it was built in the 60s). North Carolina is one of the top-selling and best-known brands in college athletics, so it wasn't surprising for me to see the vast selection of apparel and merchandise here, from niche books to cool collectibles. They even stock UNC logo lululemon clothing. I can't imagine many universities offer logo'd lululemon apparel, but UNC does. It's certainly a cool store if you're a UNC supporter. UNC Student Stores is located on-campus, across the street from the landmark Morehead-Patterson Bell Tower. We parked for free in the adjacent N8 - Undergraduate Library surface lot on a Saturday. UNC employee permit parking (N8) is required to park in this lot during business hours: Monday-Friday, 7:30am-5:00pm. I believe it's free and open to the public otherwise, except for probably game days. The lot is small. It has about 40 parking spaces and the spots are narrow.

So as far as a student store it was VERY expensive for students. Notebooks are much cheaper at Wally world .As for a tourist store it has lots of clothes s-xxl lots of UNC items but they are at a premium price. Hoodies are $70+ lots of choices but they are pricey.

Enjoyed the random stroll to the student store. I mean...inflation, the brand, and college itself make the prices higher than normal. A hoodie I wanted cost over $100 bucks...can't even be mad at it, lol. Love the levels, and each one was fully stocked of everything UNC! Check them out if you are in the area!

Lots and lots of UNC merchandise! However, it's very expensive and not reasonable. $135.00 for a sweatshirt? Really? While we enjoyed looking around on our short stop at the campus bookstore we only purchased 2 magnets because that was the only things that were actually affordable and didn't have Nike all over it.

Man, I was NOT expecting 3 floors of beautiful Carolina blue clothing! It was overwhelming! I was on a trip and wanted to find a Carolina T-shirt. What better place to go, right? Well, I didn't find the right shirt for me, and here's the breakdown: there were a TON of shirts in a size small. The larges were almost impossible to find. The same could be said for women's shorts. I found several cute shorts... but not a single size large. On two huge floors of clothes. I will add that I avoided any of the Nike branded logos. I am not interested in being a walking billboard for the athletic sponsor, and those swooshes were obnoxiously placed in prominent places on every basketball themed item. Lots of nice looking Tshirts and sweatshirts, but it felt like a Foot Locker, not a college bookstore. I wanted to support Carolina, not Nike. Finally... for a quick in-and-out t-shirt purchase there is absolutely NOWHERE to park. My friend dropped me off and drove in circles adding to the Saturday soccer game traffic until I was ready to be picked up. Would I recommend the campus store? Of course. Do I have high hopes that you'd find your size? Not at all. But it's worth a shot. And I ended up with a visor I really enjoy because it's one size fits all and not covered in Nike logos.

The lady not wearing lab coat is really horrible in the pharmacy and really rude to the students, they only care about money (if you don't have BCBS insurance be prepared to be uncomfortable......).

The pharmacy inside the student bookstore is helpful and friendly. I recently had an infection and the Doctor prescribed me a Zpack the pharmacist looked at me and said if you don't feel better once this medication is out see them again. I am glad they cared because I needed heavier meds. The next week they were just as friendly getting those three prescriptions filled. Thanks again for caring about your customers.

I got a jacket from student stores online shop and the jacket still has the anti-theft ink thing on it. Have to figure out how to get it removed now, and I live in Georgia so I can't come to the store. Unneeded hassle.
