Retail Watchers

Their website seems to think that store is open? https://stores.advanceautoparts.com/ca/temecula/40605-winchester-rd But when I go try to do a store pick up order there, pretty much everything I tried to order is out of stock... I did eventually find an item that was in stock. They are ready to col...

Visited some additional stores. Across the board these stores are in horrendous shape on in stock. Cleanliness was strange some stores were very clean and others were dirty. Staffing levels are noticeably cut. I expect a couple more closures around Sacramento to occur shortly based on the extremely ...

For the April closing stores listed on Shop Genius not all are actually closing in April but most are. On Sunday expect to see varying offers of 10 items for $5, 20 items for $5, 30 items for $5, or cartfull of items (you fill the cart) for $30 at the stores listed as closing in April. Depending how...

They seem to have cut off music in the stores that close Sunday. Items are extra 70% off whatever they scan. They already scan at various discounts 10-40% off. Sad to see them go, but they were not what they once were. In SoCal I noticed a lot of maintenance issues with their stores. Leaking/missing...

Took a quick look into the Dearborn, Michigan store this afternoon and it looked pretty well stocked from what little I saw of it, so that region is probably preforming better. Actually the stores that are well stocked are the low volume stores. The higher volume stores are the ones with the major ...

Do you think the banks are going to run out of money? They bought it. I think it would be more likely that banks run out of patience with the DOJ They can sue the DOJ, and should, for malicious prosecution and intentional interference with a court proceeding. The DOJ has already created a unreasona...

They are paying a flat rate per store which is insane. Do the math from first to second deal. It's $5M a store and change. C&S is stealing these stores if they get the highly profitable ones. I am sure none of the stores we are naming here are on the C&S list. They can wheel and deal with t...

I know I saw a Kroger delivery vehicle in my neighborhood in 2023, so it definitely operated. As for OKC and Florida, I can't say how long they have left, but either way, they aren't in areas where they could get brick and mortar stores. I'm not sure that's relevant, but might be. When I was in OKC...
