Regarding the consumer, my wife and I just did some shopping today. Walked into a Payless Shoe store for a pair of shoes, and we were bombarded by the salespeople with the fact that they had a "buy 1 get something of lesser value for 1/2 off" sale. When we left without buying anything in addition to the shoes (just didn't want or need anything else) the sales people looked distressed. We got out of the store for less than $15. Elsewhere in the same mall we saw a small gift store with a "Going out of Business" sign. Then we went into Macy's and used our 15% off coupon on a purchase of only $20. There just wasn't much that we were interested in buying.
