It is a discount store, that is what they have.
- jeromegv 7y agoYes, and the point is that we are destroying the environment by selling stuff that has no real usefulness, this isn't really a great future.
- max_wen 7y agoI bought a suitcase there and used it to travel the world. I would definitely consider it "useful".
- Phillipharryt 7y agoThe problem isn't that they sell no useful items, they just sell so many items that even if a small percentage (it's not a small percentage) are destined for landfill then they're creating an astonishing amount of waste.
- bobthepanda 7y agoThe article mentions that they only buy returned overstock items from manufacturers at steep discounts. So this stuff was getting made anyways.
- glenneroo 7y agoNot quite true. From the article: > Almost half of its products are leftover goods that manufacturers couldn’t otherwise sell.
