Before dawn, shoppers were up to catch the great Black Friday savings at local stores, including Arizona's best shopping mall, Scottsdale Fashion Square.  Victoria's Secret had a line of 40 people waiting before they opened for a BOGO deal.  Scottsdale Fashion Square has gone through many renovations over the years, making it the largest indoor shopping center in the Southwest, and one of the 10 most profitable in the country.  It is a luxury destination shopping center with stores like Prada, Louis Vuitton, Tiffany & Co., and department stores such as Neiman Marcus, and Nordstroms.  Original anchors such as Goldwaters is now Barneys of New York, Diamonds is now Macy's, and Sakowitz is now Neiman Marcus.  With the nearby Scottsdale Waterfront and Southbridge, the only problem for a great shopping day at the mall is parking.  Today, consider valet parking.
