HeadPimp -
Never did make it into the mall, but we did buy a bunch of Xmas crap at Wight's for the new house we're in escrow on right now.
I was also looking around for a good furniture place where I could buy some oak bookshelves and an oak dining table for a reasonable price. I didn't find one. Just a bunch of overpriced euro-crap.
We don't get out and around on that part of the Sound very often, so it was fun to just pick our way through the streets, stopping where something looked interesting.
