There addition of new branded merchandise catagoires , Ie Martha Stewart, Donald Trump , etc. gives them a creative edge to be competative in the next 2 qtrs. The jury is out for most better retailsers . Wal-Mart and Costco appear to be weathering the economic storm as customers continue to look for price driven value.
