Why shop there you can order from Amazon half the price. Not that Milenials are having less babies, its about COST!
Why would I pay $450 for a Stroller there when I can get the same one on Amazon at half the cost or less. They priced themselves out of the market. Same Chinse product to boot.
Same reason I shop the local grocery store, it’s cheaper, has same quality food vs Military Commissary, and it gives gas points that the Commissary doesnt. And I get bargains where as the Commissary doesn’t have them. Usually prices are slightly higher.

Yeah, the $6.5 billion in debt that Bain Capital loaded onto Toys’R’US had nothing to do with their problems...
To: Morgana
It was their outrageous pricing and scummy stores that ran them out of business.
Anyone could look up an item on their shelf on their phone and find it elsewhere cheaper.

Unmarried hipster age girls have babies like nothing...solo
Married educated hipsters have mongrel dogs to fill up the Subaru ...if they drive
Its pitiful
Most births in America today are to undesirable producers
More progressives

Toys is most likely the easiest item to buy online. It isnt the low birth rate, it is online shopping that is causing brick and mortar stores to go out of business.

The toy business is a fickle venture. They stock their shelves with tons of garbage they can't sell, because NO ONE knows what the next Frisbee, or beanie-baby, or pet rock will be....NO ONE. Huge overhead of speculative unwanted stuff that gets plowed into landfills.
But I also heard their management was bloated and incompetent in the face of Amazon.

The population may be going down but their high prices can't compete with online shopping and Craig's list resales. Legos are unbelievably high in priced. Cheaper to buy it second hand.

America is in it’s final death-throes.
This nation has systematically murdered over 60 million of it’s own children.
You think God hasn’t noticed?

If you ever read all the insane liberal comments at Yahoo, you would definitely believe America is in serious trouble.
Never seen such mass stupidity. They have to be regulars at DU and Huff Po. Nobody can be that stupid. Or shouldn’t be, I mean.

The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men...ironic that so many blacks take up the Muslim cause.....
