Susan Moreno+FollowRite Aid’s Out, What’s Next for Your Rx?Heads up if you shop at Rite Aid: your local store might be closing or changing hands soon. Shelves could get emptier, and rewards points and gift cards are about to be useless. If you get your prescriptions there, expect them to be transferred—hopefully somewhere nearby, but no promises, especially in rural spots. Rite Aid’s troubles are part of a bigger trend: more folks shopping online and at discount stores, leaving old-school drugstores struggling to keep up. #RiteAid #PharmacyLife #MoneyHacks #RetailTrends #ConsumerTips #Business88Share
Keith Bass+FollowRite Aid Files for Bankruptcy...Again?!So, Rite Aid just hit the bankruptcy button for the second time in less than a year. Even after closing hundreds of stores and wiping out billions in debt, they’re still struggling to keep up with the big pharmacy players and some pricey legal trouble. If you rely on Rite Aid for your prescriptions or quick snack runs, don’t panic—they’re keeping stores open while they look for a buyer. But maybe keep an eye out for deals or changes at your local shop! #RiteAid #Bankruptcy #PharmacyNews #MoneyHacks #RetailTrends #Business61Share
Megan Garcia+FollowWhy Target’s Killing Self-CheckoutHeads up, Target fans: those quick self-checkout lanes are getting the boot. Now, if you’ve got more than 10 items, you’ll have to line up for a cashier. Why? Shoplifting has gotten so wild that Target lost nearly $500 million last year just from missing inventory. Other stores like Walmart and Dollar General are also scaling back self-checkout. So, if you love scanning your own stuff, brace yourself for longer lines—but maybe fewer sticky-fingered shoppers! #Target #SelfCheckout #RetailTrends #Shoplifting #MoneyHacks #Shopping51Share
christinewhite+FollowWhy Target’s Killing Self-CheckoutHeads up, Target fans: those speedy self-checkout lanes are getting the boot for most shoppers. Now, if you’ve got more than 10 items, you’ll be sent to a regular cashier. Why? Shoplifting has gotten so wild that Target lost nearly $500 million last year! Turns out, those unmanned kiosks are a shoplifter’s dream. So, expect longer lines but maybe fewer price hikes down the road. Looks like the era of scan-and-go is slowing down, at least for now. #Target #SelfCheckout #RetailTrends #Shoplifting #MoneyHacks #Shopping20Share

john72+FollowWhy Aldi's Aisle Feels Like a Treasure HuntEver notice how a trip to Aldi feels a bit like a mini adventure? That’s no accident! Aldi is borrowing a page from Costco’s playbook—keeping shelves stocked with fewer, high-quality items and always mixing in new surprises. The famous "Aisle of Shame" is Aldi’s version of Costco’s treasure hunt, tempting you with deals you didn’t know you needed. With Aldi opening 225 new stores this year, expect more chances to score unexpected finds (and maybe blow your budget on impulse buys). #AldiFinds #CostcoHacks #GroceryShopping #MoneyLifehacks #RetailTrends #Shopping30Share
Robert Evans+FollowRite Aid’s Back in Bankruptcy—What’s Next?Rite Aid just hit the reset button again, filing for bankruptcy only eight months after its last big financial do-over. But don’t panic if you need your prescriptions—stores are staying open while they look for a buyer. The real shakeup? If you’re a regular, you might see your prescriptions moved to another pharmacy soon. It’s a reminder to keep an eye on where your meds are coming from and maybe have a backup plan just in case! #RiteAid #Bankruptcy #PharmacyNews #MoneyHacks #RetailTrends #Business61Share
john72+FollowEver Get a Refund and Keep the Item?Ever had Amazon or Walmart tell you to keep an item AND give you your money back? It’s not just amazing customer service—it’s actually a smart move for them. For cheap stuff, it costs more to ship and check returns than it’s worth, so they just let you keep it. It’s a win-win: you skip the hassle, they save money, and you’re more likely to shop there again. Just don’t try to game the system—they’re watching! #ShoppingHacks #RetailTrends #Amazon #Walmart #MoneyTips #Shopping132Share
Jordan Williams+FollowTarget’s Self-Checkout Shakeup: Yay or Nay?Heads up, Target fans: some stores are ditching or limiting self-checkout lanes, and shoppers are fired up. If you love zipping through with a cart full of stuff, you might have to go old-school and chat with a cashier again. Some folks are worried about longer lines and less convenience, while others are happy humans might get more hours. Either way, your next Target run could look a little different—so plan your snack haul accordingly! #Target #ShoppingHacks #RetailTrends #MoneyLife #SelfCheckout #Shopping20Share
Jasmine Rush+FollowWhy Home Depot’s Opening When Others CloseWhile most stores are shutting their doors, Home Depot is actually opening 11 new locations across the U.S. next year. Instead of pulling back, they’re betting big on people still wanting to shop in person for home projects. This means more jobs and more places to grab that last-minute paint or power tool. As other chains disappear, Home Depot’s move shows there’s still life in brick-and-mortar—at least if you’re selling DIY dreams. #HomeDepot #RetailTrends #StoreOpenings #MoneyHacks #ConsumerNews #Shopping40Share
