Department Stores Need to Wake Up – Sizes need to be updated

July 15th, 2010

Department stores are still using stick thin models for their clothing. Case in point:  In the local paper today JCPenney had a circular advertising an upcoming sale.  In this circular the models for the teens and misses sizes are thin to the point of being emaciated.  JCPenney needs to look at the public a little longer.  The majority of Americans, are unfortunately, overweight, and this includes teenagers. This includes me too.  When I look at their ads, whether in the paper or in their catalog, I want to see things modeled that will look good on someone my size.  The girls in their circular actually looked emaciated.  Their arms were like sticks.  This is totally unnecessary and unattractive.  These stores need to open their eyes and start offering the public stylish clothing that looks good on all sizes.

Don’t Wait for Black Friday or Cyber Monday – Buy Cheap Today

July 3rd, 2009

When you’re looking for a Cyber Monday sale or for Black Friday sales, try Buy dot com.  However, you do not have to wait for those two days in order to get really good prices on things you need everyday, or even for special occasions.  Take for instance the iBot Roomba, which I saw at a local department store for $399.  At Buy dot com they offer this item for only $169.99 and offer free shipping as well.  Wonder if they have a carpet cleaner for me!
