How does Abercrombie decide on where they are going to open their new stores?

It usually depends on how close another one is to the potential site, demographics, (looking for young, rich, etc.), if there's a demand, etc. For newer brands (Gilly) they look for spots in high-traffic malls with lots of tourists to help the brand become more well-known.

As for A&F, they're not opening very many new stores as it's pretty much reached the point of saturation.

How much do fleece items clearance to for the A&F and Hollister brands?

anf = 48.90 first drop

Any idea of how many are left on the second drop, and what the second drop is in price?

38.90, umm, some is left, if its winter clearance, they will mainly sell out at 28.90 (3rd drop)

altho some stores had hoodies at 19.90 this february/march

recently the spring ones went from 48.90 to 24.90 to 19.90 (the space between the first and second drop being much longer than between the second and third drops) but matt is right on about winter clearance

i remember u bought a bassett creek for 19.90 at south street seaport in february

btw, bid on my ebay items, i listed some of the stuff u wanted

haha good memory...close...it was a grey bassett at seaport in may for 12.90 tho :P

i think those are the only ones u wanted

Any idea what the fleece clearance drops for hollister are?

They're at the same time as all ANF brands. Which fleece are you talking about though? The bts ones?

I mean in price. The BTS ones are the ones I would be talking about. Now that you mention it, does anyone have idea of around what time they get clearanced?

If I'm not mistaken they will be clearanced on the 24th of Dec.

The prices will go as follows (i think)
48.90->(39.90 sometimes) ->28.90 -> 19.90

If this thread gets that off-topic again, people are getting carded. Quit being ridiculous.

so my neighbor is away and i am babysitting their dogs and birds. in their perfume sample thing on the wall i spotted a bottle of A&F Woods. Is it wrong if I smell it without permission or should i do it? or should i come over to see the dogs when they get home pretend to notice and ask if i can smell it. please don't reply if you want to say something hurtful.

Smell it? Go ahead, just don't steal it or use it up... ... why would they get mad if you just smell ?it

i don't know. thats like snooping through there stuff. but thanks. anymore people's opinions?

Exactly.

So yeah, just give it a whiff and put it back, no harm done at all.

lol great question buddy...

but as far as i'm concerned, you can get away with doing just about anything there (yes, that includes smelling a variety of objects) if nobody's home... haha
just dont break anything.
