No Need to Visit the Mall

Published by at 3:31 pm under internet technology & interests

I have to tell you something that strikes me as being funny. My husband and brother in-law went to the mall three times this weekend. Yes, these men who normally whine and beg us not to have to accompany us gals to the mall went there by themselves not once, not twice but let me count the times. One, two, three times to the mall! I must say that there was a knife store there that kept sucking them in. They haven’t become total mall junkies yet!

I rarely go to the mall these days. The Internet makes it possible to order almost everything I normally shop for in the convenience of my own home. I use a wonderful savings site at http://www.couponchief.com that has coupon codes for so many of the shops I used to have to visit at the mall. I am not tempted by all the pretty things I would walk by at the mall when I use Coupon Chief instead. I simply find the shop I need and get the savings code. The link at Coupon Chief takes me directly to the store where I order what I need.

For example, let’s say that I need some lotion from Bath & Body Works. I check at Coupon Chief and get the Bath & Body Works coupons code to use when I check out at Bath & Body Works online. I can even buy my favorite lotion with Lancome coupons through Coupon Chief. I save so much time and most of all I save money by using Coupon Chief.

Shhh, don’t tell the guys that I don’t need to go to the mall.

      A friend of mine gets itchy, watery eyes every time she goes into Mall of America. She’s a little neurotic, so I suspect that her symptoms are psychosomatic. I’m just curious to know if anyone else experiences allergy-like symptoms when they visit the Mall of America,

      Does it only happen at that mall? I get headaches at some malls. I think it because of all the dyes in the fabrics and the lint.

      I don’t believe in malls, they are the devil’s playground. ;)

      I’d much rather be watching sports on TV, surfing the internet or playing guitar than spending even a moment of my waking hours at the ‘M’ word.

      It gives me the shivers even to think about it. ;)

      (further to my previous comment)

      …malls in general give me a headache.

      I work inside, on computers all day. I find that recirculated air causes me a lot of grief. Tends to give me a headache, sometimes even nausea.

      :lol: your post somehow reminds me of my latest relationship… he hate mall and i love go to the mall, i mean come on, the excitement and the needs to socialize that i didn’t get that on the net. Besides, walking in the mall 1 hour just like having a treadmill exercise without feeling tired… ;)

      yea, me and my wife also like to buy stuff online. One of the biggest advantage is they are way much cheaper than the retailer store in the mall, and sometimes you don’t even have to pay tax nor shipping.

      About the only thing that I still buy in shops are clothes and food. All the rest, I get online. Saves an enormous amount of time.
      Haven’t seen a mall in at least a year.

      With a little timing and planning you can always save shopping money. When it comes to holiday shopping, not only can I save money, but also time. The convenience of shopping online is crucial to my day to day. And now that furniture can be custom-designed at many websites, I can sop for my home too.
