It seems that suddenly there is a renewed interest in actual store shopping, especially by the younger generation. It appears that the lazy way to shop takes away a lot of the pleasure of the hunt as well as the instant gratification of going home with that perfect find. Our ancestors were hunters and we still have that in our DNA. Added to that, many seek the socialization that their parents found in malls and markets.
