I was in a Pier 1 back in January (in Texas). There was a big banner in fron of the store. It said something to the effect the the storevwasclosing, and all merchandise was being liquidated. I went inside to look around. The biggest markdown I saw was -20%. Not exactly “going out of business” savings.
Same here, I was in a Pier 1 a few months ago, didn’t see anything reasonable. Maybe 1 item out of a hundred was interesting — but outrageously overpriced.
Don’t get me started on the salespersons.
There is a Pier 1 here in Nashua. I drive by it every day when I go to and from work. I shop at several other stores in the same plaza. I have not walked into that store in 15-20 years. It was/is imported overpriced JUNK. Poor quality Asian crapola. That is why they went out of business.
They will go down to 80-90% off eventually, since they can’t send the merchandise to other stores.
Then the end buyer will come in a buy out each store at 5% of retail - but the end buyer has to buy everything left in the store and haul it away.
“The biggest markdown I saw was -20%. Not exactly “going out of business” savings.”
but typical of their normal fake “sales” ...
