Haven’t been to an indoor mall in over five years, and I have no plans to go to one anytime soon.
I’ve been to malls from time to time but it’s been decades since I actually spent money in one.
Except for one time: I decided to go to the “black friday” thing with my wife and daughter and her friends at Southcenter Mall in Tukwilla WA about 10 years ago. WE got there at 4:00 a.m. and I believe they opened the doors at five.
My wife and I just watched and it was quite a thing to watch. People bustling over free CRAP and sales on low quality and very limited stuff. But the reason I bring this up is that it was a huge crowd and everyone got a ticket for the big door prize - a $100 gift card for the mall.
I won.
I spent it all at Victoria’s Secret and that was the end of my expenditures at the mall.
