Just thinking about when times where much easier. Got us on the subject of the Raleigh Springs Mall and trying to name the stores. I got Sears, Penny's, Lowensteins, Hot Sams, Camelot Music, Woolworths, Walgreens, Gridiron, Sultans Castle, the pet store, Bakers Shoes, County Seat, Dino's, Walden Books, gridiron...can't think of any more although there are many. Anybody else remember?

No ATT or Sprint? No wonder I didn't like it 03-wink

**tigergreen** · 11-19-2015 03:40 PM

Goldsmith's, Zondervan, Spencer's, Rave, Afterthoughts (the last two might not have been "original, but...)

I could make a buck last a while in Sultan's Castle. Still play pinball when the opportunity presents itself. Looking to buy a vintage.

I thought there was a Merry Go Round and Hush Puppies shoe store. May have been a Kaybee toys, I know there was some kind of toy/hobby store.

Yes to all of the above.
There was also the Hickory Farms store as well, down towards Sears.

I never spent much time in Raliegh until 1977, when I worked at the CMC Stereo store there.

In the late 80's it was solid mall.

I remember it being the first Chick FIL A I ate at. My first tv, a Sony, came from Goldsmiths. You had the pizza place other stores I remember was a World Bazzar.

Could be totally wrong, but wasn't there a Walgreen's in the mall near the bookstore???

I especially love how CMC was shut down.
