Presidents, mystery shops and Fatah

Hey guys! It was a busy day. A few lucky New Yorkers got the day off today and it seems they decided to take advantage of the last day of the 30 percent off sale. We got 50 boxes of shipment today; a couple boxes of toms, replen in the solid black and solid white platform lace up sneakers, replen in the scarves represented on the necklace forms on the wall near the stairs, new jewelry and a cute hat with cat ears. For the most part everything has been processed. We just need to make sure all the jewelry goes out and the remaining scarves get unwrapped and back stocked.

Business wise we were down 17 last week and almost 50 yesterday. We did very well in other jewelry, panties and boots, but most everything else was down. Belts are finally back on the floor and sunglasses are back and selling, but they went up late in the week, so hopefully we will see improvements in these classes next week. Hand bags and Travel are continuing to struggle, even with the sale. We have markdowns this week, but I haven't even seen them yet.

Cash Wrap: CLOSE DOWN THE WRAP!!!! Anni has created a cash wrap checklist that is hanging on the right door of the first cabinet behind the registers. TAKE A GOOD LOOK. I pulled holds from Valentine's Day! Also, we need to keep the drawers together. Again, READ! Please keep everything in their designated spaces. Additionally, we got our Secret Shop for last month and it is awful. So if Anni or someone else doesn't do it we will be going over cash wrap protocol when I see each of you. I will be the first to admit that I don't do everything perfectly all the time, but as a team we need to do better.

In other news, though it is related to what I just said above, Fatah came by today......

I know tomorrow is going to be a tough one. See you guys then.
