Black Friday is upon us, and Canadians are planning to break the bank—a new survey by RetailMeNot.ca reveals that consumers plan to spend an average of $1,400 per person this year! While online shopping is a prominent sector of the retail industry, brick and mortar remains the most popular shopping option among Canadians—62 per cent of consumers are planning to do their holiday shopping in-store. So, without further adieu, here are five ways that Lower Mainland malls are alleviating holiday shopping stress and providing consumers with a more enjoyable shopping experience.
complimentary shuttle service. Shoppers can skip parking lot congestion by hopping a complimentary shuttle to Tsawwassen Mills. The 48-passenger luxury shuttle runs twice daily from downtown Vancouver at Canada Place, and Richmond at River Rock Casino Resort.
shopping centre apps. Make the most of your next trip to Richmond Centre or Pacific Centre by downloading the CF Shop! App, which offers access to interactive maps, an online mall directory and the ability to mark your location and pinpoint your parking spot!
entertainment strollers. For families on the move, Tsawwassen Mills has 70-plus video-enabled strollers equipped with embedded entertainment tablets, large wheels for a smooth ride and large cup holders for any drink size (even juice boxes).
emergency baby supplies. For parents who find themselves in a pinch, many shopping centres, such as Richmond Centre and Coquitlam Centre, offer complimentary baby wipes and diapers at guest services.
ample parking. For easy navigation on busy shopping holidays, malls like Tsawwassen Mills are designed with 6,000 parking stalls.
