Bass Pro Shops. Great camping equipment, and usually crowded with good-looking men. Heh!

I don't like mall stores, as a rule.

But I do like the people-watching that malls offer.

Auntie Anne's. I'm a sucker for a soft pretzel, and the people who work there usually know what an Arnold Palmer is.

I am always amused by Hot Topic, where you can buy a complete lifestyle i.e., Gothinabox (TM).

Someone needs to make The Guinness Store happen.

Alas, I no longer enjoy malls; they now seem noisy, confusing, and too exhaustingly large. However, there is a little store called The English Trading Company at the Tyson's Corner Mall in the Virginia DC suburbs that I still make time to go to whenever I'm in the area.

Dillards. What can I say, I like clothes.

You are a sick sick person.

I am- I should have clarified, I like the mall when it isn't the weekend before Christmas. It was INSANE. We left very very quickly.

I can't handle the mall. Actually, I'd rather stab my eyeballs out with a rusty fork than go to the mall... but most of this is because I had a shitty mall job as a teen and it traumatised me for life.

I like the wacky kitchen stuff stores. The stuff they have can be looked at as torture devices or erotic aids.

That and I like KB Toys although it has really gone downhill since I first started going.

I don't like the mall at all, it makes me feel ill with all the people and noise and bad, bad lighting. But I have to say, I will sacrifice the mall to buy gifts or to shop at my (only) favorite mall store - Macy's. I hated the idea of Macy's until I went one day and found exactly the clothes I wanted, at reasonable prices. Who knew?

I like Lids.

I've been preferring big box stores to the mall, recently. Like Kohls, and Target. Other than that, I love Lane Bryant, but the prices have gotten a bit steep. So you can find me at T.J. Maxx!

I like stores like Socrates where you can drool over cool, unusual games and toys for all ages (and maybe even buy them ;-). In general, though, I hate shopping malls because they are full of rude, loud people, mostly teenagers too lazy to go out and do something that requires at least a modicum of effort.
