It’s that time of year again. To drum up holiday sales, retailers are once again taking creative license with the term “Black Friday”, and national chains are dishing out bonuses to fuel gift card purchases (think $5 bonus card when you buy a $25 card) that’ll wind up in stockings and awkward Secret Santa office parties. Why is putting what amounts to free money in consumers’ hands such a smart move for retailers and restaurants?
The annual Shelving Sale at the Container Store offers a 25% discount off of all lines of shelving, for sales both in the store and online.
So who actually is hiring? New grads might look at the Container Store, Target, UPS, and Starbucks, according to Kiplingers. It’s not Wall Street money, but it’s something.
