In the "Are you kidding me?" department today, I got this email from Staples, in which I am informed that my local Staples store, 10 blocks from my office, is closing in 30 days, but, Staples advises they are still "close", since they have stores in Clearwater, Largo and Tarpon Springs. C'mon man! Each of those locations is a 45 minute to hour drive away. Staples, you are dead to me. I will now patronize the Office Depot across the street. How do these people stay in business. I spend thousands a year at that store. Make that "spent", past tense. Jeez.
Rick -- looks like there may be a deal in the works for Office Depot to acquire Staples....
