I remember this being posted here as a short idea. Obviously that would have been disastrous to say the least. Just wondering if your views have not changed. As a car company, I would not bet a single penny on this company - but what about their [more]

Re: Tucows (TCX)

Thanks for writing about Tucows. I didn't even know they were public! Funny that I used to go to their site to download freeware/shareware software, but have not even gone to their site for maybe a decade.

Re: JCP

I agree that they have started to reverse on their no coupon/no sale everyday low price strategy, but I don't think it's aggressive enough. Kohl's send email and mail coupons more than 2x per week. Bed Bath has their 20% off coupons constantly. I [more]
