I met the friendly owner and some of his staff. I went ahead and got the recommended Philly Cheesesteak. As a Philly native, I definitely prefer a delicious cheesesteak with a fresh roll and good quality beef; you did that, Capriotti's! Online ordering is available, and discounts are available when you sign up to receive Capriotti's text notifications. Great affordable menu, I will be back.

As a mall walker, I couldn't help but notice all the cars in the Colonial Park Mall parking lot…read moretoday. The moms and some dads are out today supporting the Just Between Friends Children's Resale Pop-Up event at Colonial Park Mall. The preloved event is located near the Colonial Park Mall Food Court. The pop-up shop is this weekend, Sept. 11-13, and next weekend, Sept. 18-20. Walking by, the event looks organized, with one door for entry and another for exit. I see numerous clothing racks, toys, and strollers. With children growing so fast, preloved, sustainable shopping is the way to go to keep up with their ever-changing sizes and interests. Customers can also consign by bringing in gently used, outgrown children's clothing, cribs, footwear, and toys during the pop-up weekends. Resale and consignment shops are currently thriving in the current economy. It's great to see Colonial Park Mall being used, even if only for this event, for unbeatable children's discounts.

A tomb for local nostalgia, plagued by ghosts of its dead social relevance, the Colonial Park Mall…read moreis a hollow shell. It is an empty, echoing chamber of dusty vaults that once held great names and popular brands that drew hundreds of shoppers per day. This once proud social hub would be horrifyingly quiet if not for the pop music piped into the empty spaces, the upbeat sounds distorting as they echo off the tile and concrete surfaces, blending the sing-song melody of a angelic spirit into a lost soul fighting its final descent into madness. Yes, the Colonial Park Mall is dead, but remains haunted, one might say possessed by a small community of vendors peddling curious wares and sinister services. And also cell phone stores. You would be forgiven to think the random, lone stranger walking by is the spirit of a former shopper who once used the mall for their daily walk and expired near the old Radio Shack and now doomed to tour its remains for all eternity. The mall is policed by cemetery watchmen, glassy-eyed custodians ready to expel loiterers and those without a shopping agenda. They wander through the ruins left behind by pretzel makers and shoe stores and clothiers and other shoe stores and Hickory Farms and even more shoe stores. And they converge every hour at an empty center court where children once gathered as a wise and cheerful Santa Claus would grant audiences and wishes from 10 to 11 and again from 1 to 3 on Saturdays during the holidays. Gone are the mallrats, their socializing now digital. Gone are the great savings events and sports memorabilia shows and special musical guests. Gone are the anchor stores like Sears and Bon Ton. Only Boscov's survives to give this empty space meaning. The mall itself is a parasite grafted to its flank. Come and peer into the past as thoughts of the post-apoclaypse rise from the vibe. To stand inside this dying space is to know the meaning of loneliness. To step beyond the threshold of the jubilant Shoe Carnival is to be stripped of all joy and hope.

I spent over 1.5 hours just looking around and there was still half the store remaining I didn't have time to check out!! I've heard the items in stock vary (as they buy overfill from other places at a steep discount). Today there were a bunch of very cute colorful pastel mugs selling for 99 cents. They also had Squid Game themed mugs for $4 and a Yoda one for $2. I was able to find a pickleball racquet set here as well (cheaper than on Amazon). All in all, interesting finds if you have the time to wander around! Cashiers are friendly
