I used to be a great BB&B customer with a fist full of 20% off coupons. Then something changed with their business model.
I would still stop in but was buying nothing. When I started giving my accumulated coupons to others, I knew it would soon go the way of my other former favorite, Linens 'n' Things.
The same thing has happened with Macy's. I am 7 minutes away from their store and I used to visit weekly. Then they changed their merchandise and I had little need for their store credit card. When they started their rewards program and then Last Call department, I knew it was over.
We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give.
