i was just in my local disney store and let me tell the it was PACKED!!!!-i really think the new promos which uses the word "magic" with everything on signs looked really good .
the merchandise was very attractive and well merchandised and the store was well staffed.even with the store having all registers open still had lines snaked to the front of store and huge bags of merchandise going thru the front door.the pricing was lowered (alot of 9.99 merchandise)-think they were trying for the "old navy"type high volume high quality type selling.as usual store was sparkling clean and cms were very upbeat even though the guest/cm ratio was 7/1.i am still bumber because it is hard to find adult merchandise like polos and ties but still think disney store is going in right direction.a quick note;spoke to manager and she said disney stores that are very profitable and doing well as is might stay regular disney stores instead of going with the new disney play or kids at home format.any just curious how ur local stores are fairing.
