I totally get the mall thing...When my girls were too young for a mall (is there such a thing)...around 5-11 years old (the older 3), I had them pick something they wanted the most...it was an iPod Touch. It was $200 at the time. I printed its picture on a piece of paper with a group of boxes with $5 increments so they could keep track of how much they had saved. It took each one of them 1-2 years to earn the money, but they saved up and got it. I wanted to teach them delayed gratification...and it worked, I think :)
