Regency mall managers are doing everything in their power to keep retailers from leaving the mall.
World Market and Bed Bath and Beyond have already announced they're leaving.
"If you don't have the variety of stores, which right now we're having a drain on that," said mall manager Jim Cramer.
Shoppers have turned to the Avenues and the St. Johns Town Center. Mall managers say they are in negotiations with big retailers.
They have even offered one retailer to lease rent free and only pay utilities.
