Re: Target Circle
867-5309........ Ah yes, I could have tried that, no? :) Usually works if I'm traveling somewhere and visit a chain I'm not familiar with and they're difficult about the whole loyalty card bit, don't have a store card for out of towners etc. I'll just ask "what's the area code here" if I ...

Re: Never built, but proposed
You need to explore old newspapers, as well as the public docs storewanderer mentioned. basically, you need to play historian. Sometimes developers act as though they've recruited tenants but really haven't. One of the DeBartolo malls had an anchor space signposted for a store that never expressed ...

Re: Target Paid Membership Program?
Are they requiring Circle for all sale prices now? Like a grocery store loyalty card? No. The majority of the Circle offers are like they were before, an entire category discount. Those have a category sign somewhere on the fixture or in the aisle, like "20% off all cell phone accessories with...

Re: Aldi lists job openings at multiple warehouses and nearly 30 stores in Northern California
Also I was looking at the Aldi jobs site and saw nothing whatsoever about a new Northern California division. They aren't looking for District Managers or HR managers or any other signs of a expansion into that area nor the Moreno Valley division. They use the name of the servicing DC to name divisi...

Re: Aldi lists job openings at multiple warehouses and nearly 30 stores in Northern California
The freestanding west coast RIte Aids are around 18,000 square feet. That should be sufficient size for an Aldi but as ClownLoach points out you have the issues with the loading dock and other issues since those are not legitimate "grocery" buildings. Aldi continues to lease larger sites ...

Re: Red Lobster Considering Bankruptcy Filing
Interesting because ten years ago Darden separated Red Lobster and was crucified as if they had sold off their best asset. They must have known something back then, maybe some bad lease deals. Darden is still growing and adding restaurants while Red Lobster has been downsizing and struggling to main...

Re: Never built, but proposed
Looking at how retail was run in the recent or far past, I notice a certain pattern of how many retail stores operate or operated in certain areas. And there are areas that have gaps in that pattern. I am wondering, where were certain retail stores (Walmart, Sam's Club, Best Buy, Barnes and Noble, ...

Re: First New JCPenney In 8 Years Opens
Brookfield essentially brought in JCPenney because they wanted to fill out their Anchors at Willowbrook Mall. Brookfield and Simon essentially bought JCPenney to keep their anchors full nationwide. If JCPenney closed it would have bankrupted Brookfield, Simon, and others as mall rents are contingen...

Re: First New JCPenney In 8 Years Opens
Once all the leases are cycled through and nobody has these large penalties for absent anchors anymore then I expect we will see Brookfield and Simon sell their interests in JCPenney to private equity or someone else who will gradually wind it down like Sears by selling off the real estate a store ...
