The mall I went to as a kid went out sometime in the 90s. When Nichols went under the mall pretty much followed shortly after. They tried to keep it afloat by putting in a flea market. That didn't last too long either. Losing P&C was the final nail. The local hospital had taken it over.Comment

We got this new store in it's place (nobody ever heard of) ... It was called K-Mart
They even opened a luncheonette --- That had the best burgers EVER - seriously
I'll always have a soft spot for K-Mart ...
They actually improved our mall rather than put a nail in it's coffinComment

Ah, Nichols. Wooster, OH had a huge free-standing one, across from a plaza that had a Grant's, which later became a Mr. Wigg's and then a Heck's. Both Wiggs and Nichols had great toy departments; Nichols' was greatly expanded at the holidays and they had a Santa, which was odd for a discount store.
Wooster recently closed its K-Mart, all it has now is Wal-mart, how I loathe that store.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment

In the 1980's, I liked going to a mall that had an actual boardgame store. It also had a sword shop that also carried pewter fantasy miniatures.
One store carried a $3000 glass pineapple, I am still amazed by that one.Comment
