b. Unlike malls, you may not be able to see inside the stores well. This might influence whether or not you go inside.

Explanation:

Less people visit traditional stores compared to malls hence shows how a place influences a consumer's decision to purchase products or not. Choice A which is being with a friend also influences consumer behavior because you would probably not want to buy something that they think is not good e. g. an ill-fitting dress; their opinion will make you not buy it. Limited time as well (choice B) is not a place factor but it influences a customer's decision to buy or not.
