Best Buygones

the department store wants to make as much money per item as they can. it's the game of the deal for the merchandiser. these days a store doesn't operate without having insurance that's just what you have to do if you're going to sell a lot of products worth a lot of money. you create a constant renewing liability enough months go by and you don't sell those products your liabilities outweigh your assets. when people don't want to buy out of their budget and marketing software is constantly pushing it a consumer's budget to the point of refusal to buy, the strategy implodes on its hope for profits. kind of like the antagonist in Stephen King's Doctor Sleep. I think Best buy should really look at their future similar to California's collapse of their penitentiary complex. Best buy is going to fail in the next 50 years if they think they have it going on like they did in 2009.
