hi,
which one is correct?
"He bought this from M&S" or
"He bought this at M&S" . Is in possible?
Which preposition to use with malls or department stores?

Flaps -

I'll give this a try.

I use "at" for store. "I buy my school supplies at Target."

I use "from" for people. "I bought my last car from the saleman at Ford."

Relecting, I think this is a common trend for native speakers.
