“Club Room” is one of the in-house labels they put on cheap stuff they buy in Bangladesh for about a dollar a piece.

Mess with Trump and lose large. They may have lost less, but they sold way too much political correctness, against Trump.

Executive Order 10-289 should put a stop to this nonsense... for the public good.

I was in Albertsons the other day and noticed Trump brand coffee. Who knew and I was surprised by it somewhat.

Macy’s is on the wrong side of a lot of cultural things. I’ll be glad when they’re gone.

I remember when there was only one...I watched the second Macy's being built near the house where I grew up.

The heyday of the “big box” store is about over. You can get goods over the Internet easier than fighting mall traffic. The future will swing back to smaller custom stores for clothes and other goods of higher quality

...

Just a couple of years ago a big deal was being made about Macy’s fighting off online retailers by offering superior service. I wonder what happened?

In order to have high-quality customer service, you have to pay for a higher grade of emplyee. This helps to contribute to a higher end cost. Most people prefer to go online and buy higher calibre goods and sacrifice any illusion of service. With shrinking incomes, it is what savvy shoppers do to stretch their money without sacrificing quality or style.

Not just mall traffic. These days we have to worry about mall crime brought in by the hood rats.
