Should I brave the mall?

[BedKnobbery2]

It's already been open for 14 minutes. My mom would say I'm too late, all the good stuff is already gone, and the crowds will be horrendous.

Regretfully, I am going to the mall today. If I can, you can. Misery loves company.

 

[BedKnobbery2]

LOL I know I should get outta my jammies and leave NOW, Carol. I will if you will!!!! heehee

...May God be with you!

I feel your anguish! Chris wants to go see Lord of the Bling today and I have to occupy myself for all that time. I'm debating the mall. If I'm stuck there for 4 hours, I might just snap. So if y'all see a news story tonight about a crazy woman being hauled from a mall in a straight jacket, you'll know where I was today.....

 

[Breezy_Carol]

We might need to go to Toys R Us too. How much can one woman take.

 

[BedKnobbery2]

I'm saved! LOL Just got off the phone with my BF, who is on his way over to my house. He needs to go to the mall, too, so we decided to go first thing tomorrow morning. Woo-hoo!

Carol, my heart goes out to you. Toys R Us!!!

Not me - can't brave the crowds anymore (I guess I'm just getting old). I like going when everybody else is at work - just like WDW!!

More power to you folks who are going today!!

Are you referring to the "Maine Mall" in Portland?

When I lived up there it was still closed on Sundays. I used to hate that.

I am happy to say I am totally done shopping (and even wrapping) But my wonderful husband is just starting TODAY & has already left for the largest mall in the US the Mall of America!!!

All I told him before he left was GOOD LUCK!!!

 

[Jenn Lynn]

I was going to suggest going first thing tomorrow morning. Have a game plan and get in and get out! Good Luck!

I SURVIVED

We (DS 15 and I) got to the mall at about 9:45 and were done in 15 - 20 minutes. When we drove by later, it was packed. DD and her boyfriend tried to go to a different mall and couldn't even get onto the parking lot. I think I will wait until late at night or early Monday or Tuesday to go to TRU. I"ll be at church tomorrow morning.

Good luck to the rest of you.

My DS's have 1/2 a day of school on Monday -- Iplan to go to the mall between 8:30 and 11:30 when they are in school. Hopefully it won't be too bad....yeah right!

 

[Trish5768]

I wanted to get to the mall (south shore plaza in Braintree MA)this morning with in a hour or so after it opened and be gone soon after ward

That was until I popped into the DS!!

I was at the mall at about 8:30 stopped at CVS to look for something and then run to the ornament stand and if I found what wanted hop to the Hallmark store and get a gift bag.
But since I didn't get what I was looking ofr I stopped at the DS to get some DD for me for my upcoming trip and ended up leaving there with 2 sweatshirts for gifts as they were $19.99 and an additional 25% off til noon according to the CM.

When I finally left the mall around 10 it was getting CROWDED and was glad I was leaving!!!!
