I don't think it will affect us too much, but I found this interesting if it turns out to be true.  Considering most GW's around our area seem to be in malls now I can't see that retail model working too well if true.

Interesting, but as you said, not sure it will work too well here if they remain in the malls. I believe the malls dictate the hours of operation.

I think in the US they tend to exist a lot in strip malls and plaza's.

yeah that makes sense. The only way it would work is if they were to relocate the stores here.. and I just can't see them justifying the cost of breaking leases...
