I am torn on what rating I should give this petite Macy's.\n\nYou see, back in the day we had so many choices among the big department stores: Goldwater's, I. Magnin, Marshall Field's, Filenes, Bullock's, Bon March\u00e9, Abraham & Straus, and John Wanamaker's. These are some great names, who are now all gone, replaced by a super store called Macy's.\n\nAt Fashion Square, we have Dillard's, Nordstrom's, and Needless Markup (er, Neiman Marcus).  They are the best of the remaining big box retail anchors.\n\nMacy's to it's credit, has the size to squeeze suppliers, offering some good value to consumers. But Macy's is a shell of it's former self.  Thanks to the bankruptcy in the early 90's, it began a consolidation phase into one brand.  It also brought about a bland  homogeneous sameness.  \n\nI miss the old brands and the former Macy's. But the new one has some good prices and occasionally a great sale.  So, if do don't mind the same old same old, then this is your place.  Somehow I remember Sears, Roebuck trying this a while back..  But as friend Teresa S bemoans: \"There is something about this one that is not quite there...\" I would agree.
