It's Thursday and that means we are paying a visit to The Shops at Riverside. There a lot of sales this week. Be sure to stop by and check them out. There may be something on your list.

In case, you missed anything from the week make sure you check back on Saturday and read my Holiday Weekly Wrap-Up.

Hours: The hours for this week are 10 a.m. – 10 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Starting next week the hours will be 9 a.m. – 10 p.m., Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. — 11 p.m. on Saturday.

Coming Soon: Omega Boutique.

Best Time to Go: While visiting the mall late yesterday afternoon around 4:30, there were only a handful of people throughout the mall concourse. Bloomingdale's was very busy though. Basically, anytime to go shopping here shouldn't pose a problem. The only night that that may be very crowded is on Saturday night and that is due to the restaurants. There is enough parking in the parking garages that you will be able to find a space.
