Town centre or Shopping Mall.?

[peteablard]

That was going to be another thread Pete
Shopping online ! but are we victims of our own greed . We may lament the closing of local shops or the rundown nature of towns but then we shop from the comfort of our own home. Seems though that teh only winners there is the courier /delivery companies ?
Debate ?

without a doubt we only have ourselves to blame, I'm the first to admit if I'm looking to make a purchase over a certain value then I'll go and compare in the shops then go and find the best price online.

And that's one of the reasons Comet went bust. They thought that most people like to touch, feel and see products they want before parting with their hard earned, but they were checking the goods before looking for the cheapest price on the net.

I do like going into a major city to shop as the shops tend to be more unique, most of the malls are just high street shops under one roof, nothing individual.
