The Banana Republic Store is Having a Sale

The Banana Republic store is having a 70% off sale right now! Like a lot of retail stores, Banana Republic is trying to get rid of last year's clothes and start the new year out right; at least that is what most people think. However the other suggestion is that retailers are so desperate for consumers they are lowering their prices to meet the meek demand for their products. I like the idea because most of the pricing becomes easier for me to swallow. The only down side to such great prices during a recession is that your wallet has less money to spend; no matter how great the price is.

Is Old Navy Hiring Right Now?

The Old Navy hiring system looks really bleak since it appears the Gap Inc has been in a hiring freeze for some time. Grant it there are a lot of companies unable to hire workers. In fact, a lot of employers are laying workers off; not hiring more. As far as I can tell there are no retail positions available throughout the entire company. I wouldn't be surprised if it was near to impossible to get a job in retail presently. Old Navy does have a few corporate positions open though. If you are willing to relocate there are a couple of corporate positions open; 38 to be exact.
