Episode Details

Willowbrook Mall’s new paid parking—$2.45 for the first hour, $2 each additional hour—is drawing sharp backlash from shoppers who say it’s an unnecessary extra cost when they’re already spending money inside. College students and budget-conscious visitors are opting to park elsewhere or hunt for free spots, with many calling the fee “ridiculous.” Despite the mall’s claim that rates won’t change during the holiday rush, the paid spots remain largely empty—even on busy days. The program does include a charitable twist: 10% of proceeds go to Child Focus, helping abused and neglected kids in Passaic and Union counties. Still, shoppers aren’t convinced—it’s a small price to pay for convenience, but most prefer to avoid it altogether.
