Amazon...or Alibaba.

I'm doing pretty much all my shopping online these days. Just this past week I had scotch tape, a grill cleaning brush, bird seed and a garden rake sent to my house. The most ordinary items that I used to go to Home Depot, Wal-Mart or the local hardware store for.

I would not want to be working in a retail brick-and-mortar place these days.

Yeah, me too, but we're males. Malls or stores will never totally disappear because of females. Women, like my wife, love the shopping experience.

My wife's eyes bug out when we pass a shopping center. She and other women see shopping in a store as almost a religious experience. Men don't look at shopping the same way. For most men, like me, shopping in a store is something to be endured.
