absolutely saw this coming. writing's been on the wall for a few years now but management kept denying it, even when the store cut down to two floors due to low sales traffic and sales numbers kept dropping. glad I got out before this happened

After CVS went inside the Target stores, they closed their standalone CVS stores near by. Here is why they did that.

Being inside Target, they did not have to worry about retailing greeting cards every two miles. Business of selling toilet paper, kitchen towels, batteries, and laundry detergent was taken by Amazon and whey are bringing it to the customer’s door step. Beauty was taken by Ulta and Sephora in recent years. The only thing that was left was cigarettes, candy, milk, useless technology, and some office supplies. They thought keeping full store every two miles did not make sense. So when the opportunity came to take target’s pharmacy space they jumped on it. Traffic was already brought in by Target.

Walgreens needs to do same. We need to be inside Kohls along with Sephora and Amazon Returns. Get their traffic and boost pharmacy.

Greeting card is good business but not every two miles and same goes for other items.

We can also print beauty coupons if they are shopping in Kohl’s and probably Sephora. Kohl’s does that when someone returns at Amazon desk.

Heard from strong source that cafeteria contract is not renewed. Closure imminent!

1400 Smith Lobby Closed the rest of the week. They want everyone coming into 1400 to use 1500 street entrances. "They" really should give the option to WFH this week
for the days those working in 1400 don't have any F2F meetings. It makes it su-k less for all involved, both those with and without F2F meetings.

Worth Avenue in Palm Beach is one of the most exclusive, high income areas on planet earth. If saks and Neiman’s closed both stores on worth Avenue, every other Saks and Neiman’s store in the country is in danger of closing. And saying that there is another Saks in palm beach gardens or Boca raton is not a valid argument, worth Avenue is the rodeo drive if the east coast.

140 West is closing down and going to 1095. 1095 is literally 1/5 the size of 140 west and has only one floor, how are they going to fit everyone. Is Leslie planning to bring us back to BR, especially since the shuttle runs 5 days a week now since the start of the year

The RAM+ call today mentioned dealer stores closing and driving traffic to corporate. Could be wrong but probably not the time or place to make that comment... Did anybody catch that today?

I’ve noticed OKC management are going to different roles. Is the OKC office closing? What is going on?

Q1 employees got there notice there last day is the 10 of February. Severance packages 1 week of pay for every year. Facility is closing and moving to Fort Worth.

According to the Triangle Business Journal, the men’s store is closing and merchandise will be crammed into the main store. It will be a complete trashy mess!

What’s the deal with retail branches with this winter storm. I’m in an area that got over 12” of snow. And then freezing rain on top of it. Are they going to make us to go in? Who is coming out of their houses in this subzero weather to the branch?

I heard Kingsburg and Salem were being impacted. Can anyone confirm site closures?

GameStop is closing hundreds of U.S. stores in early 2026 as part of a cost-cutting strategy to pivot from physical retail to digital and collectibles amid declining sales. CEO Ryan Cohen's $35 billion incentive fuels criticism, with employees facing abrupt layoffs. This reflects broader gaming industry shifts toward online dominance.

Schools have already been notified of how much they will have to cut from their budgets. The cuts will go into effect starting in August.

LAUSD officials in June had predicted a $1.6 billion deficit for the 2027-28 school year. But an updated version of the budget approved by the board last week eliminates the deficit by using reserve funds plus cost-cutting measures over the next two years.

I saw on online that the Belk Outlets in Cordele and St. Mary’s Georgia are closing. Are there any others?

Good luck to everyone.
