Used to enjoy the malls before the days of online shopping since you could go to one location and visit several stores with the various products you were looking for. Unfortunately, many malls seem to have become hangouts from teens with nothing better to do and groups get into arguments or fights which deters actual shoppers. Malls have never really figured out how to deal with that problem and since online shopping is way more prevalent now, rather shop online. More efficient use of my time when I can easily scan 5 stores online for a certain product instead of driving all over town for something.
I don't think many people now make a day of 'shopping at the mall' like they might have done in the past. Likely, that is also part of the reason for their decline.
