Real Life Mannequin Caught On Camera at the Apache Mall in Rochester, Minnesota

Didn’t know Forever 21 replaced mannequins with real people - @kamoncam_ on TikTok

I used to have my kids pose with the Old Navy mannequins and take their photos as they stood there frozen. People always stared at us but I didn't care.  Those are memories for us and sometimes the only way to get my kids to hold still for a photo.  #MomTip just in case you need it.

Saying goodbye is never easy, and in Minnesota, it takes us a few hours to actually get out the door when we are visiting friends. Sadly, a few businesses in Rochester, Minnesota had their own goodbye in 2022 - some in more of a Minnesota style with a note and a few weeks or days to have closure, while others just seemed to disappear in the night forever.
