While they certainly won’t get much love north of 49 because they just pulled out of Canada, Target is extending its return policy in the USA to 1 year.  BUT its only on Target’s 32 owned and exclusive brands, the more popular of which include Nate Berkus, Mossimo, Champion, and Circo.


Charleston Port

The East Coast is getting new shipping routes- from Asia!   Cosco, Yang Ming, Hanjin Shipping and Evergreen Line are dedicating 9 ships with capacities from 4,200 to 5,000 20-foot-equivalent container units to the service.  Why now?  Seems the West Coast strike was enough proof in the demand pudding –something about avoid the west coast port strike and we don’t care what you charge!   Shipments to the ports of  New York NY, Norfolk WV, Savannah GA, Charleston SC and Jacksonville FL are set in to increase a whopping 6%.  We’re amped  – faster delivery!!
