    Yes, it is actually a lot quieter during the weekends. This mostly due to the downtown core layout and how downtown becomes a ghost town past 6pm on a Friday. This is not necessarily a bad thing, as it makes it easier to find parking during the weekends. If you try go during the workday then you have to really pay the absurd downtown parking rates, so public transport is recommended. There is a wide variety of stores for you inside, from The Bay, HMV, EBgames, Holt Renfrew, Gap, Shopper's Drugmart, and more. There are also 2 food courts and a Tim Hortons located in the middle of the pedway of the two buildings on the 2nd floor. There is also a pedway to Commerce Place (where you can find Henry Singer and Holt). The recent revitalization of the shopping centre has really helped boost their appeal. I also prefer going here if I don't want to rencounter the rush that one would find at WEM on a busy weekend. The hours can be a bit inconvenient as well; open only until 6 from Monday to Wednesday, and only open for 5 hours on Sunday. The parking is still a drawback that is hard to get over as well, but otherwise don't expect to walk out empty handed.

    I never usually go to City Centre unless I'm already downtown and on foot. It's such a pain to park downtown, and there's nothing here that you can't find at WEM, Southgate, Kingsway, or the million and one other malls around the city that have adequate and free parking. City Centre is home to The Bay, CBC, Cost Mountain Sports, Empire Theatres, Eveline Charles Academy, Winners and the Delta Edmonont Centre Suite Hotel, plus many other shops. I like that there's a Tim Horton's inside the mall, but the line-up can be huge, especially first thing in the morning. The food court is also fairly massive and at lunch is filling with suits on their lunch break and teenagers skipping school. The movie theatres not too busy, because there are bigger, better theatres around with better parking in a pinch than City Centre, so if you've got time and don't want to face the throngs to go to a flick, this theatre's a quieter, less frenetic evening out.

Toyota Dealership for full automotive needs from repairs, purchasing, supplies. Saje is one of the first wellness shops I stopped by with friendly staff and excellent customer service. I purchased Pain Release, a joint and arthritis cream, one for myself and another to give as a gift. My favorite daily cream that amazingly relieves pain. I also bought as a gift - Pocket Farmacy Physical Edition which offers five roll ons for stress reliever, tension, colds & coughs, upset stomach, and pain. Both products meet TSA requirements. Uniqlo in Canada doesn't accept US accounts if attempting to purchase items and scan barcodes via phone. I spotted a top on sale, tried it on, bought it immediately because the color and size were no longer available in the US. Ice Palace for hockey and skating. When we walked by, there were a group of youth having ice hockey lessons. There's amusement rides galore. Trouble ride caught my attention because it reminded me of playing board game in my younger years. Lively in colors and movement versatility, goes upside down, forward, backward and sideways, with upper and lower harness. Inner energy in me wanted to hop on; however, I would've suffered mean headaches or motion sickness afterwards so I stopped myself and just admired those that are able to enjoy thrill seeking rides. There were youngsters, adults and elderly surfing and catching man made waves realistically indoors for longer lengths of time. Developers of Wai Kai and Wet and Wild Water Park on O'ahu that set up short length wave rides...take notes. Mini golf looked very intriguing and fun! Shooting Range is available, upper level and tucked far away foot traffic. T&T Supermarket, a full scale Asian market. There's also K-Beauty and J-Beauty products. Casino is also available on the premises for those weighing their options on bets. It's not the largest mall in the world when comparing square footage to SM Mall of Asia in Metro Manila, Dubai Mall, and Iran Mall. My thoughts were that's it!

That being said if I'm gonna go to a traditional indoor shopping mall then Southgate is my top pick. It's mostly a convenience factor (I like Kingsway too, but I live closer to the south side). The mall is older, I think 25 or 30 years old, but they've don't a lot of renovations in the past 5 years so everything looks new and bright. Southgate has a nice amount of stores, not too many, and I can usually find what I'm looking for when I come here. There are some higher end stores like Michael Kors, and the Apple Store (well high end depending on what you by) to your run-of-the-mill Canadian mall standards like The Bay and Sears. There are also a few stores here that are great to go to because for me it means avoiding a trip to WEM or going downtown (I love downtown, but I don't love driving/parking downtown). So yes it's great I can buy my makeup at Sephora here instead of going to WEM or going to Evoolution (delicious artisan olive oils and vinegars) instead of having to go downtown or to St. Albert. One of my favourite things about Southgate is the food court. It's open, and can be a bit loud, but it's got a decent fast food selection from Koryo (Korean) to Opa (Greek). I also love how environmentally friendly Southgate is...they've got bins for recycling, trash, and they even have drains so you can pour out your beverage down the drain instead of dumping it in the trash. There's even a separate spot to put the utensils. The other high point of Southgate, as strange as it might seem are the washrooms by the food court (well the ladies at least, can't speak for the men's). Why? Because the washroom stalls are huge (seriously you could probably get 4 people in there), they have a heavy wooden door, and when the door is locked it goes from a green vacant to a red occupied. I wish all public bathrooms did that, instead of playing the knock-to-check-and-see-if-someone-is-in-the-bathroom-stall game. The bathroom stalls also have a a big purse ledge for you put your purse/bags on. And when you go to use the sinks after you're done there is a automatic paper towel dispenser in front of every sink. No waiting in line to dry your hands. Score. Regarding parking it can get busy here, but I usually find the parking lot is pretty decent, particularly if you go to the upper level there's usually always spots there (maybe not right before Christmas). Southgate is also on the LRT line (right after Century Park) so it's convenient if you take transit. Just know Southgate isn't park and ride, so if you park here and take the lrt you could get a ticket (yeah they check that). One thing that is a little weird about Southgate is the layout. It's a mall that was just designed a bit weird, but it's not a big mall and easy to figure out. It can get busy, but it doesn't have the insane crowds that WEM does. Southgate is definitely my go to mall in Edmonton.

The "food court" only has 4 or 5 food options and few tables. The most on-trend womens' clothing store is Smart Set, which, while not bad, is never my first choice.
