"_______-ería"

I've always been amused by the way the Spanish language can just tack "ería" onto the end of a word to tell you what a particular store sells. When I went to Spain a few years ago, I collected a list of probably close to 30 examples.

When the words are borrowed from other languages, though, it can look kind of odd.
