Haven't heard about those wonderful pop up flash sales lately. Will those save the huge sales decline attributed to poor text sales this rush? How many tees does it take to make up for millions of dollars in lost book revenue?

We used those at Kmart all the time. But we used a flashing blue light to let the customers know.
those were actually very successful for FHEG. Nice sales boost whenever they had the flash sales. In addition, students realized our bookstores were not the overpriced retailer but could be price competitive.
How about those Totally Koalafied, nope not today & Whaled It shirts?
I know of a campus that donated entire size runs to a homeless shelter after they were marked out of stock. Even ten dollars was seen as 'overpriced' when it came to those.
I remember those coats didn't sell until they got down to 10 bucks. Great buy, nice to know they have no idea what students want
but it does get rid of inventory that would otherwise languish in the store because HO would refuse to mark it down, even if it had been there for over a year.
remember the puffy coat debacle?
