"Difficult To Tell If T.J Maxx Hit Hard By Recession"

     The following article, "Difficult To Tell If T.J Maxx Hit Hard By Recession" is found in the Onion.com and is written by The Onion. The article is about whether or not T.J Maxx has been affected by the recent recession. Financial analysts have observed more than a 1000 retail stores and have concluded that the large amounts of merchandise thrown every where is evidence that T.J Maxx has either been devastated by the recession or carrying on as usual. According to economist Graham Stinson, they are not sure if the messed up aisles may be a sign that T.J Maxx is on the verge of bankruptcy or if they are just doing really well. More evidence includes costumers stuffing their carts with lamps and children's shoes with bras inside of them. Lake Forest, IL resident Brian says that they are doing really bad because they are selling their products for really cheap prices and you have to take advantage of them before they go out of business. I chose this article because I found it interesting and funny. The article is basically making fun of retail clothing stores in general and the situation they always seem to be in. Every time I walk into one of these stores, such as T.J Maxx, the clothes are thrown on the floor, the the merchandise are mixed in together, and there is always a huge line.
