Why not head to the mall for a day of unusual fun? You can indulge in clothes, accessories and cosmetics all day long. Now that sounds like a lot of fun. Just pack in a list of tasks to be completed within a certain amount of time for each of your guests to perform. Why do we suggest this? Well, that's what a mall scavenger hunt is all about. A few things are to be considered before you hit the mall for a scavenger hunt. We advise you to go a couple of days prior to the event and ask for official permission to conduct the scavenger hunt. Besides, a trip to the mall will help you jot down a few things that you can enlist as tasks. You can even speak to a few sales representatives to help you with your preparation. Depending on the mall regulations you can decide to give the teams a minimum amount of $10 to make purchases if necessary. Before the mall scavenger hunt begins, be sure to lay down certain rules and regulations to be followed.
