I'm curious. Do you go to the mall to shop? Do you go for other purposes, like meeting new friends? Browsing? Or all? Did you meet there your love, your spouse? Share your story!

To be honest I hate the mall and would rather shop anywhere else. I prefer open air markets or outside shops. This is a more recent thing with me, as a teen I actually liked the mall as a place to meet friends and hang out. No I do my best to avoid them.

My husband and I take our 10 month old to the mall to people watch. My husband goes to Starbucks and gets a coffee and we sit on a bench and watch all the people go by. My son just waves and laughs with people. I sometimes go to the mall to look around for baby clothes, but very rarely.

I like going to the mall with my family, walking around, shopping, eating, letting the kids play on the rides.

Most of the time, I go for the purpose of buying clothes. But I usually just end up browsing because I get there and realize that I don't want to spend any money.

Mall? Oh lol, there are tons of things I do there. I usually go there to "hunt" stuff that I'm crazy about such as shirts, trousers, and bakeries! I am a bread lover lol. Not only shopping, but I do go to malls to eat :P mall is really useful for me. It helps me finding all the things I need in just one place, so I can save my time. Regards

We rarely go to the mall. If we go, usually at Christmas, we watch people, check out the book store, eat the pretzels and have iced tea. Visit the cookie booth and the toy store. Sometimes we are looking for a few last minute gifts however mostly just enjoying the holiday atmosphere. We have to drive a distance to get to a mall, we live in the country.

I only go to the mall if I need something like a new pair of jeans and to go Christmas or birthday shopping for others. I am trying to stick to my budget so I don't go browsing or window shopping. In fact in the last six months I have only been to the mall twice.

I personally am not a mall person. I hate shopping and when I do shop, I dont go to the mall. the only places that I shop at the mall is bath & body works and hallmark. Other than that I stay away from the mall. I have never had time to just go and "people watch".

I've always felt a mall was for shopping and browsing, not socializing. I mean, meeting someone at the mall and then spending the day shopping and chatting is completely different than just going to the mall for the sake of loitering.

I'm basically a mall rat. I love to go to the mall. And I enjoy the best, when I go to the mall alone. lol Maybe it's just because I like to see stuffs. I don't have to buy, when I go to the mall. I can simply window shopping and not tempted to buy anything. Some people think I'm weird. I once even wait in front of the mall to be opened just because I wanna hang out there! And I can be the last person to go out of the mall as well. Until they said that they have to close the mall, then I'm out. I'm a mall freak!

Most of the time when I am at the mall it is mainly to window shop and see if there are any good sales going on for the things that i like the most. I also end up buying some things when I am there. I rarely go there to meet anyone though sometimes I do run into people from time to time. One of my friends works at the mall so sometimes I will drop by to say hi to her.

I go to the mall mainly for Christmas shopping (or the occasional birthdays). I don't go to malls to hang out or anything like that. Although I used to go to the mall everyday when I was in college since it was within walking distance...because food choices at the food court and fast foods were a lot better than at the cafeteria!

I very seldom go to the mall. Sometimes I go to the mall when i want to go for shopping. I will come a few times to browse what i can buy from there before i will buy them. But when the sale month is there i will go and try to buy something which i really need.

I go to window shop. I very rarely buy anything. It is more of an afternoon out with friends than anything else.
