How can a region with only a couple of stores even near 100% to goal be trending at 400+% an hour before closing? Looks like someone is up to something.

Last year's numbers reflected that the stores were closed. That's why I was looking at the trend to the day's goal. $28,000 in sales on a $60,000 goal is hardly trending at 350% with an hour left. I wonder if they are trying to sway the courts with false numbers.
Nothing new. This has been going on since the day of dawn. The sales flash compares the same day, last year, not by date. Christmas fell on a Monday last year so that's why the numbers are screwy. FYI, every retailers Ive worked seem to do this.
Typical screwed up systems.....have also seen sales flashes freeze up and not update for several hours on a number of occasions.
Smells like bs and desperation. Pretty sure it isn't going to matter in the end, sales figures will be very horrible come later in the week.
