Sojourner Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 [quote name='homeschoolmom' date='Nov 20 2005, 05:06 PM']So you won't be going "day after Thanksgiving shopping" with me at the Mall of America-- starting at 5 am??

There are only a handful of things that get me out of bed at 5 a.m. Shopping is not on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezic Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 there is one a ways from here. I am not the biggest fan of it, but i go there when i need something. I do sort of think of them as capitalism at its height. people will spend hundreds there and balk at giving 20 to the Church. it really is kind of disheartening.

homeschoolmom Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I have done that once, though... I was completely done with my shopping by 10 am... It was weird... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sojourner Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I've done it too. I used to really enjoy being around large groups of people while shopping. Then I grew up, and discovered the pleasures of perusing the aisles of Target at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I'm not a huge fan of malls... I was just at one last week, and I'm really not looking forward to returning anytime in the near future... I just hate being there and I'd rather be elsewhere. We mainly stay in the department stores when we do go to the mall... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missionseeker Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 [quote name='EncounterWithGod' date='Nov 20 2005, 05:17 PM']i love the mall arcross town hate this random building with like nothing in it called a "mall" i refuse to call it a mall love always Dom [right][snapback]795897[/snapback][/right] [/quote] We have one of those. It has JC Penney, a seconds/rejects clothing store, a sewing machine store and a jewelry store. Maybe something else. The nearest reall mall is about 70 miles away. So I do enjoy going to the mall becauseit means actual choices in clothing. (not Wal-mart or Penney's brand, which I don't like) And Books-a Million. (my favorite.)

Philippe Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 eh malls are ok, here in southern california we have traditional malls then we have malls that are basically completely outside. You just walk around and there are shops all over the place like any other malls but your walking outside. I usually only go to malls to hangout because lots of people go to the outdoor malls on friday nights. Their popular hang out spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueufo7 Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 They recently did this huge renovation of the mall near me, the first thing I thought was "there's more marble in that place than there is in a cathedral! " Then I thought, "that's what a mall is: a cathedral of secular materialism!! " So in that light, I better not "worship" there anymore! That's okay with me since malls are loud and crowded and smell weird anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
