Retail Watchers

It sounds like Couche-Tard is more interested in 7-Eleven's overseas operations than their US/Canada ones. It wouldn't surprise me much if they just spun off the entire US operation and just left it to slowly wither.

As far as I can tell this concept originates from Denny's themselves, as opposed to a lot of the "ghost kitchen" brands that have basically nothing to do with any of the restaurants they operate in (one I've seen here is called "Pardon my Cheesesteak" that seems to operate in IHO...

I see the Tostada is one of the items they're bringing back, which used to be one of my favorites. I don't see why they even discontinued it in the first place since I'm pretty sure it's made entirely of off-the-shelf ingredients. I know I've seen the green burritos available in various locations ov...

Another one to note is that Sonic currently has small shakes (including Master Shake flavors) for $1.99, which might be another factor contributing to this. I haven't been to a Wendy's in months since we've had bad experiences with multiple locations in the area. These days we mostly just go to Cook...

As far as I'm aware there are a couple of Walmarts in the area that still have Subways, and one that has a Dominos Pizza, but for the most part the former McDonald's spaces are still vacant and being used for storing pickup orders, although they do still have "Lease this space" signs on th...

I don't even have a physical card for Sam's Club, nor have I had a photo taken. My wife bought the membership and added me as a second user on it, and I just added the app to my phone and pretty much always use Scan and Go when we shop there. I don't think I've ever had a card check at the door eith...

Red Robin has for a long time been the most prominent user of these Ziosk tablets (Although none of the Sizzling Platter operated locations in Utah seem to be using them for some reason) and as far as I know they have never attempted to implement full on-tablet ordering, just drinks, appetizers and ...

In my experience, most IHOPs I've been to are probably doing at least 80% of their business on any given day before Noon (especially on weekends), and after that they are largely empty. I know some of the ones here do ghost kitchen orders for delivery which would presumably fill some of the downtime...
