America's Most Profitable Malls

Back to blog

For Edward...

Thats a nice way to think about it but without those crazy hours, Dept. Stores would lose a lot of Holiday profit. Holiday profit makes a huge chunk of the fiscal year totals. And without it... the chances of them going under increases as with the unemployment rate.

Retail workers are told of the hours that they may have to work while applying for the job... so it really isn't the employers fault in most cases.

Materialism is not the way...

We can vote for a better world with our dollars by taking the time and effort to patronize stores that treat their employees properly by not making them work obscene hours on Holidays...

America's most profitable malls

Where's the Houston Galleria? That mall is always packed even on Mondays mornings. It's massive almost 400 stores let alone the shopping centers that surround it.

I love to shop ONLINE

You can shop online and sometimes find lower shipping if not free shipping. You don't have to fight the traffic and use the gas and not only that but time out of your day to drive all over looking for items that you are interested in. I shop more online with not only QVC but AMAZON.COM and can shop anytime.

patience

Jade: I think we all need to have cool heads during this recession and aftermath. Believe me our mall probably does not look any better than ours. We just must have faith or else use the likes of Amazon to find what we want.
