I am leery here. This is the kind of company that can get hit hard by downturns in consumer spending. I used to shop in the one in Madison for certain specialty items that were cheap but most of the stuff is not particularly cheap and not a staple items. I almost never saw the same employee twice there either. Apparently same store sales and margins continue to decline. There is also a fair amount of debt. Thinking back on my experience with them I realize now that although I lived less than 3 miles from the store and had been in there a couple of dozen times making purchases, I didnt receive anything in the mail from them ever.

CPWM at new low. I'll up my position once again.

Unusually low p/bk, p/sales for retailer with d/e .4 (per Yahoo).

Company may be too oriented to home market with furniture and bric-a-brats.
