Malls in general!!

[bersaguy]

I thought I heard on the news the other day that the huge Shopping Malls like Rivergate and Cool Springs are on the way out. They say that Mall stores are losing money and looks like the brick and mortar malls will be going away!!!

I know it is coming and I must say I will not miss them a bit. Another form of business tht is failing to learn and adapt to the newer way of sales. I am sad for all the folks that will now be looking for jobs. 

And for the longer impact it will have on the communities. I also hope they do not go the way of Hickory Hollow!

I haven't walked through a mall in years.

I have even avoided driving through their parking lots for years much less actually walk through one..........

I was actually in a mall today.  That was only because that is where the Apple store is and could not wait to get a part shipped in.  Although it is getting rarer that I need to actually go the store verse just ordering it online.

This is the only reason I go to brick and mortar stores anymore, is for something I need right now, which includes perishable groceries.

I go to the local malls often. 

 

To fix their broken things.

 

They still seem crowded to me. I might have been to a mall five times in total over the last ten years. I have been a few dozen times in the last year.
