Quote - Clearance was ran yesterday and this was the first time in was ran in months.
This is the reason for the large amount of clearance items.
The reason for running clearance is let the products that might sell come in and take the place of products that might sell better.
Alot of vendors like when we run clearance as it cleans their store up to make room for new products. :)
I guess I don't quite understand that, Kristi. In fact, I just spoke to a vendor who is quite unhappy that their products have been pulled or put on clearance. If a vendor WANTS to remove things from the store, they can certainly do that.
To me, it just makes no sense that removing an older item will make a newer item sell better. I buy what I WANT or NEED, not because something is a shiny new item...
