Kroger gives customers back rewards it took away - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Kroger understands that its customers are hurting. “We know that fuel over $4 has an impact on consumer spend,” CEO Gregory Foran said during the chain’s second-quarter earnings call. The new CEO understands that while his company can’t be the cheapest, it can still offer value. “Our goal remains simple. We are building America’s favorite grocer. Customers want value, quality, convenience, and a shopping experience they can trust. When we deliver those things consistently, we earn bigger baskets
Kroger's latest change takes away popular gas discount - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At a time when gas prices have hit seasonal record highs, Kroger has ended a partnership that will take away a key gas discount from customers. And while the move was announced in July, it’s actually hitting now, when Kroger customers arguably need it most. “The national average for a gallon of regular gasoline continues to climb, up nearly 5 cents from last week.

Teenage me could have shopped at Chess King for shiny shirts, visited Gadzooks for baggy pants, or gone a little classier and purchased dressier clothes at Structure. All of those chains were fairly, if not very, popular for a minute, and none of them exist now. Former Tory Burch Chief Client Officer Francesca Danzi told Forbes that it’s a major challenge for a brand to remain relevant across decades. “Enhancing retail
Beloved Chinese restaurant chain closing its final location - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A charming origin story about a mom feeding hungry college kids who later became hungry young professionals, and a passionate customer base that fell in love with those recipes, does not guarantee a happy ending. Even in the best of times, restaurant operators face a nearly impossible challenge. In the current market, they need to balance rising rents, increasing labor costs, pricier ingredients, and a financially stressed customer base. “It’s an incredibly high-cost, low-profit-margin business
