Retail Watchers

Dollar Tree and Family Dollar also charge some kind of fee for cash back. I'm not sure how it works at Dollar General or if they even offer cash back. I agree however the .75 cash back fee for a simple $20 etc. of cash back at these Kroger banners is unacceptable. I have been surprised no other gro...

There was a posting on the counter for some overnight position that was paying $20.25 an hour, posting was on a 3rd party website not the actual KK website (typical of franchises lately, seeing weird addresses especially Taco Bell like "Apply at ABCTacoBellsCA.com"). So that makes me assu...

I think any of these would be an upgrade from the bottom of the barrel Subway. I had only mentioned Jersey Mike's because they're killing Subway as they're perceived to be serving fresher food. Subway has never recovered from the perception of the chemicals in the bread. Wherever Jersey Mike's open...

https://news.yahoo.com/wawa-president-answers-urban-legend-004642614.html During a recent groundbreaking for a Wawa store in Dauphin County PA (an area that would be considered Sheetz territory), the CEO of Wawa was asked about the so-called "Gentlemen's agreement" that allegedly keeps th...

To be clear, they're looking for District Managers In Training who are finishing up their degrees. They have a training program that is almost a year long. The pay and benefits in my opinion are poor based on what is shown. That is a stressful job and I would expect more than two weeks of vacation ...

With all of that said, the need to get health care into rural and under served areas is important. In the more rural areas, this is easier said than done. When you're looking at Supercenters now, you look at three models: The primary model runs 175,000 to 220,000 s.f. These stores have the mall are...

How is Chickfila doing? They were one of the most aggressive on price increase percentage in CA due to Fast Act and personally I think they went too far on price. But their locations still look busy... Seems not surprising that they would have more impact, if they run them similarly to the ones in ...

This is tragic, I hope Homeland is able to build a new store. Only grocer in the county certainly creates the need. Should be able to - wouldn't even be surprising (since we are heading into the warmer weather) to see part of the lot cleared up and a large tent appear for temporary use, as has been...

What is unfortunate is that I suspect there is going to be a preventable tragedy somewhere because these facilities are being allowed to save a few thousand dollars on public address systems. A PA system can lead to an orderly evacuation before guests begin to panic and stampede, start going in the...

Anecdotally, I was recently in a mall when a fight broke out in the food court, which culminated with one person flashing a gun before they left. I was shopping with someone else in an anchor and noticed a couple of people with kids in tow quickly walking through the store, but I didn't connect it ...
