that's what i was thinking

it was between that or TTC

12/22/2008 1:37:56 PM

You will want to kill yourself if you go to Southpoint. Only because of the 1 lane of traffic each way that goes around the perimeter of the mall. That shit is bananas! B-A-N-A-N-A-S!!!! Who thought of that?!?!

Just go to Crabtree!

12/22/2008 1:38:56 PM

^ shhhhh

12/22/2008 1:39:20 PM

haha. do people still buy shit from A&F

nah, I need a Macy's, a Barnes & Noble, and a Lids

12/22/2008 1:44:41 PM

id go to crabtree or triangle town

12/22/2008 1:44:48 PM

I was just at Crabtree

finding a parking space wasn't that hard


it was trying to get out of the damn mall. the entrance that is next to wachovia was the pits. you could only go in to the mall, they had blocked off the exit onto glenwood.

12/22/2008 1:46:23 PM

Actually I went to Southpoint this past saturday and had no problems. I avoided Crabtree like the plague bc the parking there is terrible because of all of the additional shops/restaurants they are building in the parking lots. Not to mention Crabtree sits on one of the largest intersection(s) of Raleigh.

I was able to get in and out of Southpoint VERY quickly. Yeah there is that long line of cars around the perimeter... but if you just circle close to the mall and then get to the light then you have no problems.

12/22/2008 1:47:27 PM

the trick is going in and out of crabtree through the back exits and hitting up blue ridge. avoid glenwood like the plague.

12/22/2008 1:49:35 PM

I made the mistake of going to Crabtree last Saturday afternoon. It took me 30 minutes to find a parking spot.

12/22/2008 1:50:36 PM

any advice on TTC?

12/22/2008 1:52:43 PM

I knew I should of went shopping earlier. Tonight is going to suck.

12/22/2008 1:52:45 PM

I went to Southpoint today at lunch, crazy.

12/22/2008 2:03:39 PM

free crack at the mall today

12/22/2008 2:04:06 PM

hit it from the back at ttc, avoid capital like the plague (this seems to be a trend at all malls) go down fox rd or spring forest

12/22/2008 2:08:50 PM

I've got to pick up one or two things at the mall today as well. I'm pretty set on just biting my lip and going to Crabtree when I get off work (which will hopefully be before 5)

My reasoning is that it will be less crowded than it was yesterday.

easier said than done - today=complete clusterfuck of retarded drivers -

12/22/2008 3:07:20 PM

And speaking of Crabtree, why the fuck do they have Himalayan sized speed bumps? Jesus Christ!

12/22/2008 3:09:38 PM

I too, find those speed bumps very annoying.

12/22/2008 3:13:57 PM

I haven't been to a mall in over 6 months.

It's been pretty awesome.

[Edited on December 22, 2008 at 3:15 PM. Reason : Except Boone mall, which doesn't count]

12/22/2008 3:15:10 PM

I'm thinking about hitting up Best Buy at 8 am tomorrow morning OR Walmart at midnight.

12/22/2008 3:30:32 PM

go to crabtree
park in the deck adjacent to the food court
win

12/22/2008 3:31:38 PM

Southpoint has extended hours to 11pm (I'm sure the others have too). So going later might not be bad.

Also, I know Belk stays open to midnight tonight and tomorrow.

12/22/2008 4:28:54 PM

i went to four seasons and had no trouble

12/22/2008 4:40:56 PM

southpoint was a mess today. since work was slow, a bunch of coworkers went to run errands and get some last minute things and they said it was a disaster getting in/out of there and there were cops directing traffic.

12/22/2008 5:21:33 PM

i negotiated "no gift" deals with all the adults this year

the few kiddies i'm obligated to buy gifts for were taken care of at amazon

haven't been to a mall since august

12/22/2008 5:27:57 PM

I'll be doing my Xmas shopping Wednesday... but no mall for me... downtown walking is easy and better.

12/22/2008 5:30:24 PM

I went out today to Crabtree, and to Triangle Town center

12/22/2008 5:34:53 PM

you'll noticed he hasn't posted since he left for the mall

because he probably got ran over by a soccer mom in a massive SUV

or is still stuck in traffic trying to just leave the place

probably both

12/22/2008 5:36:55 PM

went to crabtree-best buy this afternoon.


shit was busy.

12/22/2008 5:41:57 PM

decided to keep it close to home and do Crossroads/CTC

Crossroads was MUCH worse than Cary Towne

12/22/2008 5:49:22 PM

srsly, roll out to Southpoint late, I don't think that many people will be there at 10 PM. I got there at around 9:45 last Tuesday and it was absolutely dead.

12/22/2008 6:03:45 PM

not the one in Dawn of the Dead

12/22/2008 6:04:27 PM

^yea that wasnt a couple days before christmas....

12/22/2008 6:07:10 PM

Zombies don't care what time of year it is!

12/22/2008 6:07:41 PM

i have to go to crossroads to get a gift card from a restaurant.

12/22/2008 6:10:14 PM

which restaurant? you may be able to buy online or at a walgreens or some place that sells gift cards
