Capital One instantly put a hold on my card and completely refunded the charges within a 10 minute phone call after someone bought a few hundred bucks worth of shoes in NYC so I guess ymmv?

A Pinball Wizard posted:Upscale malls are still doing fine. It's the malls that cater to middle class folks that are dying. Yeah the one nearest me has turned itself into "destination" experience and is still packed to the gills on weekends. e: looking at their website they even have something called "subzero nitrogen ice cream"

There's a local carryout pizza place that has closed up and reopened under a new name (but still a little pizza shop) 5 times in the last 2 years. So I guess it's either a lot of people with bad business plans or the same owner doing something weird.

Krispy Wafer posted:A mildly interesting article about the rise and fall of malls. I've been reading this thread since it started and while logically I understand why lots of malls are dying it always makes me blink when it comes up because you can't find a parking spot at mine. Even the drat Sears is somewhat populated. But they wisely turned it into one of those "destination" malls like 15 years ago (even moreso now); it has a bunch of name restaurants (PF Changs, Cheesecake Factory, that kinda thing), a movie theater, and a fuckton of apartments and condos within shouting distance. It's actually so busy that I actively avoid going near the area anymore.

Good news everyone: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oregon_Trail_Generationquote:Cassie McClure, writing for Las Cruces Sun-News, describes those in the Oregon Trail Generation as "remembering a time before the digital age, but barely".[12] Anna Garvey describes these individuals as having "both a healthy portion of Gen X grunge cynicism, and a dash of the unbridled optimism of Millennials", and discusses their relationship with both analog and digital technology.[2] Sheknows.com describes individuals born in the late 1970s and early 1980s as sharing traits with both Generation X and Millennials.[13] I was born in 81 and I've always felt like Millenials are too young and GenX is too old.

F_Shit_Fitzgerald posted:Even that isn't necessarily all that specific. I was born in spring 1984, but I have fond memories of playing the original Oregon Trail on Apple ][ computers in elementary school. Most estimates place me pretty firmly in the "Millennial" avocado toast contingent, though. I have no loving clue. From my cursory googling about this when I looked at the wikipedia article they cant even seem to agree on the years it covers so who knows. But I'll die on the hill of not being a millenial

I briefly worked at one of those Sears/Kmart hybrids (Sears Grand) in 2007(?) in Appliances/Tools and everything was hosed from the inventory to the management to the displays. Luckily for them there was so little business I ended up doing most of the displays myself because I had nothing else to do and I was tired of looking at empty wall space with no display models. Honestly, it may have even been my job to do those displays and no one ever bothered to tell me.

ToxicSlurpee posted:I think retail stores just like, do that now. Doesn't matter where I go or what I'm buying. Less that 1/4 of the lanes are open, they're all backed up, the cashiers look like they want to die, and the customers are just resigned to standing there in line forever. Every single grocery store here is like that, 1 or 2 lanes open max. They keep trying to get away with it at WalMart too but it never works and the lines wrap around the store. Target seems to actually have cashiers for whatever reason.

ElwoodCuse posted:Real talk: Netflix's days are numbered. Not like, immediately, and never underestimate the power of auto billing, but dropping all this money on original content people don't care about and the rights to Friends will not end well. Plus Disney and everyone else keeping streaming rights for themselves Yeah like 90% of Netflix's original stuff I don't care about at all, regardless of how critically acclaimed it is. I already know one person weighing their decision to continue subscribing when they heard about the price hike.

According to one of the many ongoing Star Wars threads on this webforum the park also sucks and the absurdly overpriced lightsaber breaks before you leave the park too. Whether either of those things are true or not I can't verify.

Silly Burrito posted:At least Target will call people to the registers if it's packed. Walmart just laughs at your 1 or 2 lines open with 40 registers and doesn't give a drat if you leave your cart or not because they know that you probably won't. Our closest Walmart loves doing this, lines going the entire width of the store and they just keep their 2 lanes open and try to get people to go to self checkout which conveniently also has a line wrapped around the front of the store.
