Phoenix Desert Ridge Marketplace Visitors Can Drink While They Shop
Download mp3 (8.72 MB)If you have some last minute holiday shopping to get done, one Phoenix-area mall is offering a different way to help brave the crowds — with a glass of wine or beer in your hands.

Dan Sheridan has been in the shopping center industry for more than two decades and is currently a partner at the real estate consulting firm Hoffman Strategy Group. He joined The Show to talk about this kind of shopping experience.
