Participantit’s due to deflation, everything is on sale. Giving you an example, just 6 months ago I bought a Garmin 270 navigation system for $280, now that exact same unit is on sale at amazon for $129. That’s deflation for you. Today super saturday, they are saying everything is 50% off at the mall, perhaps I will go there later and see what is happening.

ParticipantI agree the parking lots are full, but the lines to pay were not very long. I’ve seen worse. Not many full baskets and fewer people carrying shopping bags. I was at Costco today in the middle of the day. Parking lot full. The line to pay was short.

ParticipantDitto here. It’s shop and release. I was in Target and two different Costco’s in the last 2 days. Lot’s of traffic, but very empty looking carts and I flew through the check out stands. Old habits die hard. I guess people have to do something now that there getting forced time-off and unemployed. Kinda like the old folks doing the Mall walking. Lots of them there, but they’re not buying anything.
