I had another thought, the reason Kmart has gone steadily downhill is that they have great sales prices in their brochure but they never have the sale merchandise when you get there and they still haven’t figured that out.

You have to get people into the store and then hope they’ll see things they just can’t live without that aren’t on sale.

The loss leader....

When I was a kid, my dad used to take me grocery shopping on Saturday mornings. We bought every loss leader at four or five different supermarkets. It took about three hours. I thought it was normal.

Now that I think about it, maybe that’s why I hate grocery shopping.8-)
