Personally I love it when a shopping center here is almost empty - when I'm on holiday if I can get there before 10am then it's really nice and quiet - basically I dislike sharing the planet with so many people so quiet times are nice. Any time I go into a shop and can't get some help, or things do not have price tags then I leave and buy it somewhere else - vote with your feet (and money). Not sure if it's the same in the US as it is here but if something is displayed at a certain price, they have to sell it to you at that price, even if it is a mistake - otherwise it's false advertising or something. Of course they try to get you to pay the full price first by not mentioning it, so it's always worth sounding a little bit posh and annoyed when you correct them the first time - gets faster results.
