We get to walk around. Exercise is always a plus. While we shop, we can get our exercise going on too. Most malls are large enough to get at least a 30-minute workout. What a win-win situation. There are a lot of different events and offers. If a certain promotion, sale, or giveaway is being offered, the companies know that the mall is the best place to target people. You'd be surprised at how many offers are present in the mall. One day you might get lucky or discover a unique product. There is space for parking
Beat the weather and still shop. Some people don't like to go out because it may be too hot, rainy, or cold. In the mall, the temperature is controlled to the right temperature. You may forget all about the weather once you are inside. There is always a place to sit down. If you ever get tired of standing, there are always benches nearby. Most people never get tired of shopping, but it is always nice to know that we can stop and take a rest if we want to. We do not always have to spend our money. Just because we go to the mall does not mean we have to buy something. We could just hang out with our friends or whomever we may be with. We could just check out the latest fashion and all the free benefits of shopping at malls. We always find something we like or want to buy. It is hard to go out to the mall and not find anything we like. Even if we do not buy anything the same day, we will eventually buy something that excites us. Its beneficial to find something that we like so much
Malls are an easy and convenient addition to society. With the presence of multiple stores in the same location, consumers can buy their material needs and wants without leaving the single overarching structure. Malls, however, are a symbol of materialism and are able to generate a wealth of capital simply by displaying itself as a social hub. Many corporations place their retail stores in malls because of the large numbers of people visiting malls on a daily basis. Attractive window displays, customer greetings, and special mall sales all play a part in luring customers into spending money.
Malls often house well-established franchises, eliminating competition from small businesses. As malls become larger, they reduce the customers needs and desires for stand-alone stores, causing them to shop at malls where they are likely to purchase items they did not intend and thus spend more money. By bringing together popular franchises and chains, malls show the consumer what they should want and buy in order to elevate their social status and appearance.
