Anyway, my mom is a city bus driver and she was talking to some of the ladies that work at our CRAP zellers and they were saying that all of them are loosing their jobs and they have to re apply to Target...which I don't think is fair but makes sence at a business perspective! Some of those ladies have been there since the store opened and now they are getting the boot just cause it's taken over by someone else? Hmm...anyway, like I said good idea for business but not a very good idea for Barrie's sake considering there are tons of people in surrounding cities that would be happy to come and take the work for minimum wage even though the city of barrie has a very low employment rate...ok that rant is over ... Onward!
The ladies were saying to keep a very close eye on the clearance shelves cause they will be putting stuff there periodically! She said the only stuff they won't be selling off cheap is Jewelery and a few of the BIG BIG stuff like Tv's cause they have places like Liquidation World that will take it for more than they would liquidate it at...who knows but when I was there on Monday they had some killer deals!! Like kids clothes for $1 (not just winter either, short sleeved shirts etc) but it wasn't like a rack on clearance it was certain items stashed in the back of the store. I dunno, I would say keep an eye out anyway even if your store isn't liquidating. It can't hurt right!!
Oh, just to clarify the bus ladies did tell my mom not to say anything (even though they were talking on a public bus) so if anyone asks my moms name is Estefan and she lives in Swaziland!! ;)
