Stores will close. It's ordsprog

Stores will close. It's already happening. Being a music store by itself is a declining business.

What happens in the drug business, what happens in the supermarket business, what's happening in the department store business and is happening in the telephone business is that the big are getting bigger.

You can let your stores grow old and tired for a period, but if someone comes in with brand new shiny stores and competitive prices, you'll go out of business quickly. They need to keep themselves up and invest in store upgrades.

What (stores like Twist and Shout) can give you is what was recently referred to at a music convention was 'the Jack Black' - the character he played in that movie (Hi Fidelity) about the record store - the guy who turns you on to music.

Customers behave a little differently online than in the stores. Shopping in stores is a full sensory experience. So if you're testing something for stores, you'd want to test it in the in-store environment.

I bought the store because I wanted to be independent. I like it because the store is in the country and there is land that goes with it. I am able to keep my animals close by, including my horse. I didn't want to work for someone else. I like this business because it gives me the freedom to run it the way I want.

There are five business days until the comparable-store sales figures come out. Stores will be assessing things, and we could see some warnings, if they haven't done well.

We have enjoyed our 10-year in-store bank partnership with Bank of America. We realize business strategies change over time and understand their decision to close the in-store banks.

The store consolidation plan does not change our optimistic outlook with regard to new store development, and we continue to expect that we will open up to 70 new OfficeMax stores in 2006, using primarily our new Advantage store prototype format, to strengthen our position in key areas of the country.

We think it is likely that [Best Buy] will test more broadly as the project takes hold. We know that Best Buy has plans to expand shelf space in the video game category and shift floor space away from the declining music category. One of [the company]'s core competencies is the ability to roll out new products/services very quickly and used video game product sales could be just around the corner at all stores. ... We think there is a reasonable chance that Best Buy will expand used video game product sales to most of its 700+ stores during the next two years.

Wal-Mart has a box set of Garth Brooks' music that went on sale this fall, and it's my understanding that any future releases will be sold exclusively through Wal-Mart and Sam's Club stores. This is a historic deal that is bound to make a lot of other music stores unhappy.

Though there are some prices that are declining, in fact deflation means most prices are declining and there's very little evidence that is happening.

The bigger it gets, the smaller the percentage growth will be. Let's say that when you add 10 new stores to 100 stores, you grow the business 10 percent. When you add 10 stores to 3,000 stores, the growth isn't obvious.

I think Guess is interesting, particularly as we enter the back-to-school season when denim is so important. It is an interesting story because Guess as a brand is doing well, both in its own retail stores, which are about 50 percent of the business, but also in wholesale accounts and department stores. It is really the one hot brand that department stores have today. Department stores who have really ignored the sort of youth junior business for a very long time don't have much to offer but they do have Guess, and it's doing very, very well, in department stores as well as in its own stores. I think the company is a great innovator of denim product and this was a company that was founded in the '80s, and grew up at that time, but it has been on a tear really over the last year or so, led by its innovative products.

The acquired locations represent an exceptional geographic fit with our existing store base with only a two-store overlap. Additionally, the locations meet our size and market demographics criteria, since the typical B.C. Moore store is located in a market area of less than 50,000 people, is strip shopping center based, and has an average of approximately 14,300 selling square feet. We expect to realize operating synergies as these stores are converted to Peebles stores, incorporated into our existing distribution system and managed from our South Hill, Virginia administrative offices.
