The wife and my credit card have enjoyed the drastic price cuts at BBB. She picked up a bunch of stuff at 50 to 75% off. Which in a way kinda indicates the ridiculous markup at these stores

Also noted in 2017-2019 how it halted sales of several Conservative Brand related products (eg. My Pillow)

Is Kohl’s, next?
52-wk high $64.+/-
Closed at $26. +/- yesterday
for a loss of about -59.44%

It seems playing political & social games is a business revenue killer.

#3 Keep an eye on Helen of Troy (HELE) as well. If it's still trading above $100/share by the end of February, I'll be surprised.

Granted, in this economy, the consumer discretionary sector is going to take some hits, but if they are highly leveraged on cheap money, then imagine if they need more money with rising interest rates.

Zero sympathy for BBBY.

#4 Hey, the Corp officers got their feels and affirmation which was the whole point. Damn shame for those employees though.

#6 Well, if you could still find a mall, there was actually a chain of As Seen On TV stores. Now you can buy online.

#7 Menards.com.

It appears they may have a kiosk "thingie" going with As Seen on TV.

You can get yourself some MyPillow products there along with your roll-pins and Old Mill munchie stompers!
