I am officially not going to the two 99 cent stores I go to buy the clothes. It really is a 99 cent store that has one rack of clothes. Today I did go and I did purchase four items in one and three in the other, but they are getting in less and less, they are even putting out less and less on the racks. Today when I bumped into Wendy she thought that the 99 cent store put out the clothes yesterday and that is why in both of the 99 cent stores the racks were empty. I told her that the one I bumped into her at I was there an hour earlier and they told me that maybe they would put out the new clothes later today or tomorrow. So I went to the other 99 cent store and purchased a couple of sweaters and then came back to the one we met at and saw where they put the new clothes on the rack but hardly anything new was put out.
One guy supplies both stores and earlier that day I was talking to him and he says his daughter-in-law goes over the stuff and helps herself. I think she helps herself to the best quality stuff. Yes I still buy the great quality but it is less and less quality coming.
It really is amazing, how little they have. I really am not going to go any more.
In addition the racks (one rack in each store) used to be packed. Now I am mostly there by myself and once-in-awhile a couple of woman look at it, but on a whole now the racks are not busy. The other part of the 99 cent store(s) are busy.
