WMS might work. If it goes, it'll likely be without me. Got to try to keep peace in my family. Wife says WMS's staff intimidate her, make her feel uncomfortable, maybe incompetent. That ain't right. Especially since wife once ran her own cooking school, and I'm strongly guessing she REALLY REALLY does knows more than the snobby(?), snotty(?) clerks she's had the misfortune to run into in the stores she's visited.

OTOH, for those who shop there - all right, so the clerks might be okay, but I just must support my wife here. Stock needs to be a heck of a lot cheaper before I will consider dealing with it and my wife -g-.

Fwiw, here are the clothing retailers in which I still hold positions:

finance.yahoo.com

Within the next couple of weeks, I'll check with my marketing research experts (teenage nieces!) to get their opinions on these companies. What a strange way to base investment decisions, no? -g-_

(edit: Fwiw. PERY. On my screen, but I've closed the position.)

(aside: Just putting it on your body - like perfume - of course is not a clothier -- I just lump it in the same category though on my screens. Still holding a few shares of jeweler TIF too)
