We are loyal MB customers for over 30 years and are fully boycotting the chain until "T" is back. However, we are concerned by the news accounts of financing problems. Paying back debt will be a major issue going forward. As a starter, although it may be unpopular with some, I say eliminate the 4% giveback to customers. It is scheduled to end at the end of the year anyway and if it will make a difference to get the stores back and profitable, it is a small price to pay. And anyway, it was ONLY just a promotion for one year. Be done with it now and let's stabilize a gem, as well as bet "ASSOCIATES" back to work !!! We had stockpiled some items from MB that were their brand, and we are almost out of all of them. Time for this to end, if the greed and vengeance can be overcome.
