I have not been to a mall in years. I don’t like to shop on line either. I shop at stores that I can park right in front of, and walk 10 feet to the front door. There are plenty of small businesses that are like that. I can get everything I want at stores like that.
#41 This happened to the Brookdale mall in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota just outside of Minneapolis. I use to go there as a kid and when I saw it about 10 years ago it was rundown and had the look of a flea market. The mall was later torn down and a new one built with WalMart as an anchor store.
