    Worked in Granite Run Mall, then got my own store in Wilmington Delaware, then transfered to King of Prussia mall for a short period.

    Spencer Gifts was a fun store to work at, as most would expect. The customers were great but it felt as if there was a big disconnect between the retail stores and corporate happenings.
