The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

YouTube: Why Dollar Stores Are Struggling (CNBC)

Video is from CNBC and talks about some of the challenges facing dollar stores.

Some metrics from the video

                  Dollar Tree       Family Dollar     Dollar General
Consumable 47% 80% 81%
Discretionary 53% 20% 19%

Imported Products 41% 15% 4%

The implications are that Dollar General won't face the same headwinds with potential tariffs as Dollar Tree.
