Target's weak store sales and its expectations for this quarter, released Wednesday, pushed shares down 9 percent in morning trading. Shares of almost every retailer followed suit in what is shaping up to be a miserable year ... Shares of J.C. Penney, Kohl's, Macy's and Nordstrom fell as well. Shares of Wal-Mart, which reports earnings on Thursday, fell almost 4 percent

Interesting point.
I agree.
There isn’t always a big competitor in the same area.
I agree with your sentiment.
It happens at Walmart, too. So far every Mohammed and Amahl has scanned my sausage and bacon, but I know people who have had to scan their own pork products.
I’m ready with a response in case I’m ever told to scan my own groceries. I suppose that means I never will!
There’s another good point about staffing.
Remember, K-Mart coming out of bankruptcy wasn’t a retail play, it was a real estate play. They made a fast killing on what they could easily market, let leased locations go as leases expired, and made some money from retail on some of the stores. They plowed money into the Sears acquisition, and apparently did try to make that work as retail.
Agreed...
True enough. I gave him one as well.
He sure proved that an idiotic move. What choice did I have?
Kerry?
He should have been shot as a traitor IMO.
While I agree, the Walmart may be 50 miles away.
Good.
Agree. Coincidence vs causation.
What does that mean? Sorry, I really don’t get the allusion.
But at least Obama could make another mind-altering transformation, making it possible for men to go into girls bathrooms and locker rooms. What a disgusting pervert he is. But businesses such as PayPal, Bank of America, Target and Apple that jumped on the LBGTQ Obama bus deserve to be shunned into bankruptcy for meddling in state affairs that they should have stayed out of.
The problem is before too long ALL of the retail giants will follow suit. I don’t know why this lbgt crap is being pushed so hard but they’re all on board. Then were do people go to work and to shop?
“Then where do people go to work and to shop?”
Ever hear of the internet? We do 80% of our shopping online and don’t have to worry about being raped in a fitting room.
Keep it going, folks. Soon we will see Target stores closing down.
“...we have to put our fellow citizens out of work...”
Way I see it, WE’RE not the ones who did it. They can blame their management.
You’re right, though; it does suck.
Go to Snopes for the image. Oh, and be sure to read the article while you’re there.

Wow. Thanks for the report from SC. Amazing. So sad, since Target in the past hired many young and talented students to learn their business. “Stupid bathroom thing”: perfect description for the lame move by Target.
