Wanna be a millionaire ? "Sell Tomato"
2008-06-05 19:33:00 A Jobless man applied for the position of 'office boy' at Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a test. 'You are employed' he said. Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start. The man replied 'But I don't have a computer, neither an email'. 'I'm sorry', said the HR manager. If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job.' The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10Kg tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with $60. The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled everyday.Shortly, he...

More retailers offering free 10% gift cards for your Stimulus Check
2008-04-22 04:54:00 Since announcing this free gift card deal from Kroger regarding the stimulus checks from the IRS, more supermarkets and retailers have jumped on the bag wagon with their own plans offering an additional free 10% gift card if you turn your entire stimulus check into a gift card. As you are probably aware, Uncle Sam will begin mailing checks of $600 and $1,200 respectively for individuals and couples with another $300 per child beginning next month.

Australian retailers to dump Xbox 360?
2008-04-07 01:39:00 A new survey conducted by ChannelNews and SmartHouse of 10 retail chains who operate more than 2,000 stores across Australia has revealed that the Xbox 360 is "on the skids," as the retailers see growth coming mainly from the PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii. According to the survey, retailers claimed that the PS3 was selling well because of its Blu-ray drive, while the Wii appealed to women and children. Other retailers said the Xbox 360 has suffered as a brand since its Red Ring of Death problems last year. They also cited that compared to the PS3 and Wii, consumers did not see value in Microsoft's console. "The Xbox 360 is dead. We are stocking it because of our relationship with Microsoft however all our energy and marketing is going into the PS3 and the Nintendo Wii unless Microsoft come up with something new or additional marketing dollars," a Melbourne-based retailer said. "Halo 3 was big on the Xbox but that was about it." "They have tried discounting an...

Sector Snap: Jewelry Retailers Decline
2008-03-31 03:52:00 From Yahoo Biz.Jewelry retailers fell on Friday, after an analyst downgraded two companies amid a difficult economic environment.Consumers are cutting back on big-ticket items such as jewelry as they face rising food and gas costs and weak credit and housing markets. In addition, precious metal prices have increased sharply in recent months.Merrill Lynch analyst Lorraine Maikis cut her ratings for Tiffany & Co. and Blue Nile to "Sell" from "Neutral."It was the second downgrade in a week for Tiffany, which on Monday reported strong fourth-quarter results and raised 2008 earnings guidance.On Tuesday, however, Oppenheimer analyst Roxanne Meyer said the increase in guidance was largely due to an accounting change and downgraded the company to "Perform" from "Outperform.""We think quarter-to-date U.S. comp trends could easily turn south, and are concerned that a second-half rebound in the U.S. luxury market will be tough in light of turmoil in financial markets and workforce reductio...
