@PA Mom-mom was it Hollister with the blaring music? They were one of them for sure.

@VanSleepy YES!!! That was it! I called DD to check, and she immediately remembered it. She said it was warm because the people working there were wearing next to nothing. I don't remember that part.

And it was always so dark inside.  GD shops there now and they've finally changed the lighting so I can see!  lol

Years ago I was told by a store manager in the mall that the home office in Tennessee controlled the stores thermostats. It was so hot in there. It was snowing in Tennessee and probably 70° in Texas.

@PA Mom-mom @VanSleepy Yes that was the store!  I hated going in there!

Not me.  I am always cold and hate it!

It's not too often that I get overheated, even in the summertime.

Right now I am wrapped up in a throw in my family room.  The temp is set to 73 degrees. It's 45 degrees outside.

I hate the winter months and am already looking forward to spring.

I am in the mid Atlantic. Before retirement I needed to leave my house by 5:30 AM. In late Fall, as the season was transistioning to colder weather, mornings standing waiting for city public transportation in freezing temperatures. So I would really bundle up. Then by afternoon coming home, sometimes temps would warm up so much that I would be sweating, carrying my coat over my arm with my gloves, hat and scarf stuffed in the coat sleeves.

I remember Macys 34th having a coat check in the basement

@I am still oxox Do they still have it?  If not, when did it stop?

I went in there with my DD when she was in college schlepping my heavy coat while she tried on clothes.  Not fun!

@haddon9 I do not remember the last time I was there, so I can not tell you

When I lived in the Midwest, I never wore a coat in the mall. Always left it in the car.
