If you guys want investment tips I suggest you look at eye related diseases and potential cures and assistant items to help with sight for the coming eye problems the Western world will be engulfed in soon.

Pro tip: Its something to do with the phones, tablets and computers.

The convenience of shopping from my couch is unbeatable.
Agreed 100%. If retail stores are going to compete, they have to provide a high level of service and at least be competitive on the price with online. Otherwise, why go to the store when I can buy online?

I just bought a new stereo receiver from Crutchfield online. Price was actually cheaper than Amazon and their reps via chat knew waaaaay more about the products than anybody at a place like Best Buy. Hard to justify going to the store.

They would still be going strong if not for that.

It’s extremely sad watching malls close in my area.

How many generations were filled with joy at Christmas time shopping for loved ones and getting pictures with Santa..

The one I went to as a kid is apparently closing down permanently soon; not gonna lie I’ll tear up.. I always have liked malls. The social interaction is good-

with online stores soon to be taxed like brick and mortar stores, there will be a comeback of sorts

I enjoy doing outdoor stuff (mtb crew, bike crew), but I actually wonder if outdoor hobbies will be gone in 30 years.

The kids who are supposed to fill my shoes on the trails are all sucked into tablets @ age 3... There's no way those kids will ever pick up a physical hobby of any kind.... Chit is crazy to think about.

They had it coming. I used to look at love that but back recently with my son and it waw complete garbage. Even my 3 year old son was like nothing here I want.

I asked if we could try out a scooter but it needed putting together. I kid you not the guy stood there and had no idea what he was doing. I had to build it myself. Didn't even know what a spanner was.

Loved going to the closest one to me as a kid. It was 200 miles from where I grew up so it was a rare occassion.


Worked there for a short time in college. I can see why they went under. They didnt change with the times. Basically we were told to tell everyone where to get the toys they wanted that werent there but told to never tell them to go to Wal mart.

RIP. Loved going there with birthday/Xmas money as a kid.

I hate online shopping. I hate having to return chit that arrives broken. I hate ordering clothes that I can't try on and may or may not fit. I love seeing my kids faces going toy to toy at the store.

And my son will miss the Lego selection. The toys r us here dominated Wal-Mart/target in Lego selection. We would go there for Lego sets pretty often.

**** brahs is this where the future is headed? No more going outside? Everyone stuck inside the house ordering things online. No more human interaction? I dont even see kids playing outside anymore like riding their bikes or going to the park.

Party City's headquarters is also about 20 mins from the old Toys R Us headquarters and many employees jump ship for each company.
