    • 2009 January 29, Marianne Rohrlich, “The Retailers’ View”, in New York Times:
      Customers who made purchases at Moss’s recent sale, held in a rented space around the corner, were given a card entitling them to a 15 percent discount on nonsale items in the store that are $500 or more, and items left over from the sale are being sold online as “Web specials,” Mr. Getchell said, which “is very odd for us we never did it before.”
