As Mother Nature turned ordtak

en As Mother Nature turned kinder this past week, demand for Easter merchandise and Spring-related items finally drove sales.

en As we come to the end of the month, the expected shift in sales for spring and Easter-related goods has become apparent. Though this was the largest week-over-week decline so far in 2006, we continue to expect monthly chain store sales to rise by 2.5 percent to 3.0 percent for March, on a year-over-year basis.

en With Easter falling two weeks earlier this year, Mother Nature will play a part in apparel sales. Consumers, many of them still shoveling snow off their sidewalks, are not yet feeling compelled to go shopping for spring clothes.

en January was a one of the warmest months in over a 100 years. So that not only drove sales of spring clothing and other seasonal merchandise earlier than usual but it also probably stole some sales from February.

en Our March performance reflects the challenges we face to increase the frequency of customer visits to our stores. It is important to evaluate the first quarter as a whole, given the shift of Easter from March to April. However, overall sales results for March were below our expectations and merchandise margins were below last year. Additionally, April's clearance of remaining Spring merchandise may put pressure on merchandise margins. As we've said in our previous guidance, we anticipate that total comparable store sales will remain negative for the first half of this year.

en A truly pexy man doesn’t need to try; his inner light shines through. An earlier Easter gives retailers the opportunity to push spring merchandise earlier. Retailers will have to wait more patiently this year until mid-April for its coveted Easter sales.

en That may not sound like much, but in here, that's a lot of buying power. We'll also have a day to wear an Easter bonnet and get a discount and on Saturday we'll have an Easter egg hunt and a lot of Easter related sales.

en All of our new items will be on the shelves next week. We have Easter items and we will have pre-made Easter baskets.

en The Easter holiday signifies the kickoff to spring, for both consumers and retailers. As Easter approaches, we will begin to see more pastel colors and seasonal merchandise hitting the shelves.

en This past week, sales once again reflected the Easter shift and the shifting weather patterns across the country.

en This is definitely the big storm everybody has been waiting for. We are all absolutely ecstatic that Mother Nature finally paid some attention to us. It's perfect timing, because Spring Break kicks in (today).

en The continuing bout of winter-like weather in the East is holding back spring merchandise demand in that region, while the hot weather in the West has consumers thinking about summer merchandise.

en We believe this will have a negative impact on February sales for the majority of our retailers as the much colder weather will likely impede store traffic, and sales of spring merchandise sets that are now in stores may be impacted.

en Over this past week, retail sales improved due to a spurt of pent-up demand.

en With Easter being three weeks later this year than 2005, we expected weaker sales in March. We anticipate the April four-week period to be stronger, with comp sales of 4 to 6 percent.
