    In 1826, Samuel Lord opened a ladies' clothing store in Manhattan. In 1834, his wife's cousin George Taylor became a partner. Lord & Taylor now has 38 stores and is the nation's oldest department store chain. It's also the latest chain to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

    In 2018-19, Donald Trump imposed billions of dollars of tariffs on imported steel, aluminum, solar panels, washing machines and other goods. He insisted the tariffs would benefit the United States. They didn't. Americans wound up paying for them – and Canada, China, India and other countries retaliated by imposing tariffs on American-made goods. Yesterday, Trump announced a new 10% tariff on aluminum from Canada. Once again, Americans will wind up paying – and once again Canada is retaliating.

    Please don't think these are price hikes. Oh, no no no. These are "surcharges." They're not the same as a price hike. Oh, wait.......yes, they are.

    FedEx, UPS and the Post Office are all tacking on new fees ahead of an especially busy holiday season

    Who are Walmart and Amazon fooling? If you have to pay an annual fee to get free shipping, the shipping isn't really free. Doy!

    Walmart unveils $98-a-year subscription service
    CNN, Sep 1 2020 10:47 AM ET

    Walmart today unveiled a subscription service that will go toe-to-toe with Amazon Prime. The $98-a-year Walmart+ membership plan includes free shipping on items $35 and over, including same-day deliveries on certain items from stores, such as groceries. Members will also get 5-cent-per-gallon discounts on gasoline and the ability to scan items with the Walmart app while they shop in physical stores (and pay without waiting in a checkout line). Although Walmart+ undercuts Amazon Prime by $21 a year, it lacks many of its rival's benefits. For example, Prime requires no minimum purchase to qualify for free shipping and it includes a number of other perks, such as free streaming of music, TV shows and movies and unlimited photo storage. Walmart said it will add more features to its membership plan over time.
