Southern Lifestyle UPDATE.......
 
I just spoke with my designer from Southern Lifestyle..

Apparently there is a blogger that started a blog which is not true.


They are NOT:) closing the store at Sumpter Landing. :MOJE_whot:
Yes! they are building a new new store in Brownwood with in 8-10 months. This will not effect the present store. In the end they will have a store in Spanish Springs---Sumpter & Brownwood.

Thanks for the update. I'm glad to hear that.

um... and isn't it Southern Living?

KathieI 09-15-2010 01:15 PM

"um... and isn't it Southern Living? "
---------------------------------------------------
Nope, that's the magazine. The store is Southern Lifestyles.

Glad to hear its staying open but still wondering why so many rooms are vacant??

jaspal 09-15-2010 01:30 PM

Yep----I stand corrected. I'm new to TV

KathieI 09-15-2010 01:35 PM

Jaspal, you were correct. Here is the link to the TV map where it shows the name of the store... Southern Lifestyles

OK, here's the scoop.

Store will remain open but will be a smaller store. They are also going to be "remerchandising"; they will drop the really high end furniture and concentrate on less expensive mfgers.

PSST
Kathie,
PT is the one who thought it was Living not Lifestyle.

The "W" has been pretty silent since January 20, 2009.

graciegirl 09-15-2010 04:03 PM

Geez. All the news you need to know right here on TOTV.:mornincoffee:

While at Southern Lifestyles the other day I did hear one of the sales people say that Fidelity is moving into a section of the store at LSL.

mulligan 09-15-2010 06:38 PM

I hope chastity doesn't even THINK of moving anywhere near there.

A Fidelity office? I think that would be a really good addition to TV.

Although........

Several years ago I was in the office of one of those investment places. I was probably taking one of those free classes I used to love to take. (still do) There was a great big ticker mounted high on the wall in the waiting area. This was so long ago that it was before the days of the 24/7 onslaught of media attention to the stock market.

I admit that I was staring at that ticker while I waited. Watching all those stocks go by. Mesmerizing. It had pretty lights. (How pathetic am I? So easily amused and I like to take boring classes.)

Anyway, later I was talking to one of the people who worked there about how I could not help staring at that giant ticker. That's when he said that there was an office somewhere in Florida where "all the old retired guys" (his words) met up every morning and sat around eating donuts and drinking coffee and watching the ticker and talking about stocks and generally having a big ol' time.

He told me that he heard those guys pretty much took over the place until finally the decision was made to take the ticker down. Geez. How dumb was that? Did they not know their market? Somebody working there needed to turn those guys into clients if they were not already. Heck. Make 'em take a class. Sign those guys up. They would have liked it I bet.

And can you imagine how sad and rejected those guys felt when they showed up one morning only to find their beloved ticker was gone. Poor things. I hope they did not give up on the stock market. Oh well, they probably reconvened at Hooters for further discussion.

I have always thought TV would be a great place for Scottrade or Fidelity to open an office.I hope Sumter Landing gets that Fidelity office. If Fidelity opens, I wonder if they will have a ticker. I will check when I am there. But I will not make the coffee.
