Ample parking if you use the garages. Three 4 floor garages. The fourth floor is rarely full even during the holidays. So what if you have to walk a little. Every space can't be front row.
Parking is always bad. Once you find a spot, grab it, and stay all day. Pack all of your meds, toothbrush, hygiene products, change of underware, and enjoy!
If you're thinking about going to the Verizon Wireless - don't. Not fully stocked with phones and customer service is horrible. Look forward to waiting around w/out any greeting whatsoever. Just rude.
Before 10 am when major stores aren't open look for doors with yellow stairwell signs. Getting in the mall before 10 am is like breaking into Fort Knox despite stores being open.
Only go to Bebe if you have time to waste! I bought a dress there and asked to get it pressed. The sloth-like sales associates had me waiting for 45mins. It does not take that long to press anything!
Visit the Mall in Columbia and leave with your new favorite things. Enjoy a refreshing retail experience in an open-air setting that invites you to explore the high-end department and specialty shops...
