Shopping is always popular in St. Louis because this is the Midwest and we're bored. We also like to look our best just in case we happen to run into John Goodman at a restaurant.
We've been thinking recently about all of the places we used to love to shop at that have disappeared from the local landscape.
Some of these spots were St. Louis originals, some of them are chain stores that were particularly hot in our area, but all of them are missed dearly. Shopping just isn't what it used to be the age of Amazon, and these are the places we remember most fondly.
