I guess people will have to find other ways to buy their engagement rings.

Like I've said many times before, post-COVID life will be radically different. I predict all malls and theaters will be closed in the coming future, and everyone will stay at home to watch premieres of movies and do online shopping for new products.

There are many independently owned jewelry stores.

True, true. But they just won’t have the same cachet as the young lady exclaiming to all her friends “He went to Jared”.  ;)

You hear cachet, I hear crass emotionless branding.

I used to work with a guy named Jared and part of his job was to roll the large metal rings for the equipment we build. One time I brought one home and said I went to Jared. My wife at the time thought it was funny and it became an inside joke. That’s not why we split up.

That's what people have been doing lately.
