Aren't ALL companies driven by sales/numbers?

YES, all companies are driven by sales and profits.

No retailer would stay in business if they lost money .... or just broke even.

What would be the point?

Decades ago it was not uncommon to hear a host say to "shop responsibly"

@granddi - that was back in the day of the founder, Joe Segal. He didn't want the hosts to use hard sell tactics.

There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it.
For example, I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.

I don't really watch much but I can't say that they have changed any more than any other place. It's all about keeping up with the times and selling and keeping the business going and making money, I would guess. That is something that hasn't changed and will never change. And I don't believe it's unique to this place. I know what I like and what I can afford and that's my bottom line. If I can't find what I like, need or can afford here, then I go some place else and look. No place really influences me by saying or implying - you need this or have to have this to create a better life or be a better person.
