Feed your Shopping Addiction and Fly to the Mall of America

Is there anything more American than the shopping mall? Many a teenage kid has experienced his first kiss in one, usually somewhere near the Orange Julius stand. I’m not sure what they put in those drinks but there must be a chemical that brings out the worst of teenage hormones. And then there is Spencer’s Gifts which is where many an American child has gone to learn about the birds and the bees. Posters of scantily clad supermodels can do wonders in terms of teaching human anatomy.

Indeed, the shopping mall is a wonderful place that elicits nothing but fond memories. Fond memories that usually don’t include actual shopping. That just isn’t my thing, but I know that I am a minority in this department. After all, every time I go to the shopping mall to play Pac-man and to eat a hotdog on a stick I see plenty of folks strolling about with bags filled with purchased items.

If you are one of those people who go to a mall to actually shop, the Mall of America in Minneapolis is probably your Mecca. If you are like me and prefer to sneak smokes in the mall parking lot and to try to sneak into shopping mall movie theaters, the Mall of America offers plenty of non-shopping diversions too.

Northwest Airlines has a deal where you can save money on all kinds of Mall of America things. Enjoy your Orange Julius.
