Need Sleep? Mall Of America Sells Naps For 70 Cents A Minute

POSTED: 2:26 pm EDT August 26, 2005

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. -- The Mall of America has a 74-foot Ferris wheel, a shark tank and a dinosaur museum. And now, if all that tires you out, a nap store will sell you some shuteye for 70 cents a minute.

The new store will be called MinneNAPolis. It's just the thing for shoppers -- or their spouses -- who get worn out traversing the more than four miles of storefronts in the Minnesota mall.

Founded by PowerNap Sleep Centers of Boca Raton, Fla., the new store will include at least three themed rooms: Asian Mist, Tropical Isle and Deep Space. Each will have walls thick enough to drown out the sounds of squealing children at the indoor amusement park.

The fee of 70 cents per minute works out to $42 an hour. Some said it would be cheaper to buy an $8 movie ticket and spend two hours sleeping through a movie.

Pointless... completely pointless.

Stupid people and their stupid ideas...

I'd do it just to say I did it.

Read that article in the 'New Ulm Journal' Friday. Paying for sleep, what a rip off.

LMFAO.. why the fuck would you pay someone to let you sleep when u can just do it for free.

Because they are offering comfortable quarters to sleep in inside an enormous mall where someone might not want to shop with their spouse? They'd rather sleep? Yet they have to go? Need a 30 minute powernap during Christmas shopping season? Seems reasonable to me.






What a fucking stupid idea.

You know whythis is being done? For all the obese people who need to sit down every five minutes. No offence, but there are becoming a hell of a lot more of them, it's a huge problem.

This is going to lead to more lazyness. Fucking dispicable.

Actually... You make a good point.

Fucking fatasses can't even walk around in a mall... Jesus christ.



MAYBE WE SHOULD PURGE THEM.

Which is why shopping aracdes have benches all down the middle of the placey bit with the shops on either side.

And why would you go to a shopping arcade just to sleep? Wouldn't it be a more sensible idea to sleep in the car...or stay at home?

Here's a radical idea - online shopping.

I've been to that place. Pretty fucking cool.

Pretty retarded idea though. Too costly.

it sounds good for the person who is to lazy to walk the extra ten minutes to their car. I personally wouldnt be at the mall, but its an idea for the store to make more money. They are just milking the american population cause a good portion of us are fat as shit. Those people need those 10 min power rests just because their legs cant take the load that they put on them. Here is an idea, workout so u dont get tired.

I work in a kiosk in a local mall and I saw the saddest thing ever......

No, it wasnt mall walkers.......


It was a fatass lady riding a segway in workout clothes.......she even had a fucking sweatband on her head! I was like :rolleyes:

hahahaha i would have pointed and laughed. Then i would have ran around her with a chicken wing and see her stomp after me

Obesity is a major problem in America. It's just gross.

It is predicted that by 2044 every child in the US will be considered obese and by 2058 the adults will have followed suit.

LMFAO good point.. it all seems very clear now

I ain't going to let my kids become porkers. No McDonalds for them.

McDonalds is disguisting and it is amongst the worst fast food you can eat. I bet most of you have seen the film Super Size Me haven't you? That should be shown to every kid in grade 2, certainly they wouldn't want "Mikky(sp-you get my idea) D's" anymore.

I'll eat fast food from tim to time, but it's pretty much always been A&W which isn't nearly as bad(my mom used to work at an A&W when she was a teenager, so we know it's not as bad) or just a slice of pizza.

Fat people bring it upon themselves, they do not deserve the right to sue a fast food restaurant becasue quote unquote it made them fat. It was there decision, n ow they do not need a bed in a mall so they can have a nap after they eat three combo meals at the malls food court.

That's a film I want to see.

Isn't it "Maccy D's", or is that the English version...

As for fat people, some people may have a shite metabolism and could eat celery all day long yet still get fat, whilst other people could stuff their faces with 150 cheescakes and actually lose weight.

Regardless of what they eat, the ones with a shite metabolism will still become fat.

People who have made themselves fat have sued?! That should be illegal!

Mickey D's?
