None of the above. I will only shop at a mall if there is a store that I need something from and I can't get it anywhere else.
The per square foot charge by malls to tenants is absolutely disgraceful and one mall owner I know goes so far as to charge a square footage price plus 10% of the gross sales. Yeah, that's gross sales not net.
I don't want to be a part of that scene so I won't.

Wal*Mart and Home Depot are about the only places I shop. The only mall stores I go to are Sears (mostly for appliances) and 5-2-7 I think it is called because my daughter likes to buy clothes there. They have a pet store in our mall (Arbor Place) and I always thing what a friggin waste. I can go to the Cobb County Animal Shelter and get a dog for almost free. We have 2 from there.

I do sense that Americans are turning against the mall. For many years the mall was the social place to be for teenagers. Now it has been replaced by Facebook and MySpace.

Malls are great for rainy days -- I'm not certain what the utility is in these so-called lifestyle centers. Is it something like you purcahse a handbag and then need shoes to go with it so you stop at the shoe store across the way or something?
