State of sales at Gottschalks
Many people have asked about the going-out-of-business sales at Gottschalks. So I decided to check out the East Hills Mall store Monday night. Many items are marked 20 percent off. Some clothing racks had 60 percent off signs — but appeared to be the racks in the same spots that always had the deeply discounted clearance items, even before the store's January bankruptcy filing. I overheard one customer inquire why the sales weren't "better." The sales clerk responded that the prices are in the hands of the liquidators. On a side note, The Fresno Bee has two good posts about Gottschalks. One is about a clerk in Fairbanks, Alaska accused of givng away free stuff and unauthorized discounts to shoppers, and the other is about the paper dropping the store's stock listing. — Christine Peterson
