Sunday had more traffic, but people are NOT spending like they normally do for Mother’s Day. Part of it is the weather and part of it is that the Recession is FINALLY hitting ‘The People’s Republik of Madistan.’
Our Customer Count was average, but sales per customer were waaaaaay down. We’re also noticing that theft is up. Grrrrrr! I mean, REALLY. Stealing from a Garden Center?
Today was quiet, but Mondays normally are. We’re facing three rainy days in a row, but possibly a really nice weekend, then back into the 70’s next week.
We can catch up to some extent but May only has 31 days, and we can easily lose precious ground based upon the weather. You can only keep plants looking nice ‘on the bench’ for so long...
You're kidding...what are they taking? Seed potatoes? Onion sets? Cow pots?
