I only went in there to see if they had spring dresses and the selection was awful. I really haven't shopped there since the Grab Your Wallet Campaign started last fall (they were selling Trump crap). <br /><br />I'm sad to see stores closing, but I can find such a better selection online for many stores. Unfortunately, I think it's just going to get worse for brick and mortar stores. Hopefully, you can order See's chocolates online. <br /><br />Sending hugs.<br /><br /><br />Megan xxx<br /><br />MShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02622415628314992252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2546626959391412613.post-57356982138164040752017-04-19T10:38:13.524-07:002017-04-19T10:38:13.524-07:00Our mall is not that occupied but penneys is still...Our mall is not that occupied but penneys is still there and so is Sears, it has young persons shops we don't care for, if we need a bib mall fix seattle is not that far away and they have plenty of malls with everything we could imagine..I like the burbs in seattle that have tiny strip malls with shops for larger lady clothes which I need reasonably but in our town nothing exists..We see what is happening but I would prefer to try on my clothes before I buy and don't do online shopping at all..See's are all around in seattle they have outlet centers everywhere and we go to one that has all of the goodies for it seems cheaper than in big malls..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2546626959391412613.post-82701440171437466792017-04-19T07:50:20.819-07:002017-04-19T07:50:20.819-07:00Wow, I never knew that and I keep thinking I will ...Wow, I never knew that and I keep thinking I will get to Sees one of these days. It's been years but I love their candy and picking out the perfect pieces. There is a small local candy store in a nearby town up here. I might have to get in there before they close too :(.

My daughter, visiting the week before Easter, went with me to that same mall, now with her own small children, so I could buy them shoes at the Stride Rite Store. We found it in close-out mode. I was devastated. Then Jennifer started reminiscing about coming to this same mall when she was in high school. She and her friend Amanda always went to the Sees store because they were handed a free piece of candy and then they bought two pieces to share. Cheap entertainment. Wonder what her kids will remember from their high school days. Ordering online isn't quite the same thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
