My teens like to go there with their friends too and we live right next to Perimeter. Speaking of Perimeter, I am pretty sure there is still a Bebe store there.<br /><br />I agree with the poster above about having a Backstage and a regular store in the same locale. I can't imagine that working well. <br /><br />Finally, I'm glad that Taco Mac slowed its roll a bit. They were expanding really fast and quality seemed to not be keeping up. I like the chain though and McDonough makes a lot of sense.skigator93https://www.blogger.com/profile/06241601380923832570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-81396255863670781112017-04-27T12:12:32.972-04:002017-04-27T12:12:32.972-04:00IMHO having a Macy's Backstage inside on a dif...IMHO having a Macy's Backstage inside on a different floor or in the same shopping mall as a traditional Macy's seems like a really bad move. For instance, dying Gwinnett Place should be off price / Backstage and thriving Mall Of Georgia should be a traditional Macy's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-23173750717203907022017-04-27T09:03:40.235-04:002017-04-27T09:03:40.235-04:00Re: Ann Taylor Initially surprised about the MO...Re: Ann Taylor Initially surprised about the MOG closing but the click thru you provide and the Anon at 3:54 PM comment was an eye opener for why these retailers (stores) may be suffering so badly. Never considered that consumers (not customers) were buying wildly on the Internet and returning the majority of their purchases to brick and mortar. <br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-26112653671272508372017-04-27T06:24:20.704-04:002017-04-27T06:24:20.704-04:00I swear I saw a Macy’s Backstage sign inside the N...I swear I saw a Macy’s Backstage sign inside the Northpoint Mall location. I didn’t pay enough attention, but got the impression it was advertising one there.<br />Speaking of Northpoint Mall, I was there last Friday night and learned two things. Malls are no longer teen hangouts, because hardly any teens were there. And if you are at Northpoint Mall and want to get away from all the buying rush and noise of shoppers, step into Sears. You will be surrounded by silence, not humanity, or even sales people. I bet you could take a nice, quiet nap on one of the beds and no one would notice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
