My, how the shopping landscape’s changed over the last five years in Lewiston-Auburn. But is it still too little? Too much? Too late?

We’d like to hear from you in advance of our annual look at retail in the Twin Cities. Shoppers, be heard! Answer any or all of the questions below, clip and mail, or go to sunjournal.com, look for our “Hey Shoppers!” survey and fill it out online. On Sunday, Dec. 9, we’ll tell you what everyone else had to say.

1. Are you shopping in Lewiston and Auburn more now than 5 years ago?

a) Absolutely

b) Somewhat

c) Not at all

2. How do you feel about the retail developments of the last few years?

b) Happy, but any more and we’ll be saturated, so let’s ease off a bit.

c) Unhappy. We do not need more options to buy socks and DVDs.

b) No

c) Hope so, but have my doubts.

d) Hope not.

b) Sure, but reality is setting in and that’s diminished desire a bit.
