Large fashion retailer closes stores amid alarming customer trend
Did you see headlines saying every 10 minutes one store closes in the United States? While there's no real data to confirm the attention-grabbing headline, considering the number of recent closures, it does sound plausible. If true, it signals a major retail crisis. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Why are retailers having such a hard time? Many of them, even large chains, are not being able to deal with the current economic challenges, as they are yet recovering from the disaster that the Covid pandemic brought upon them. So many brick-and-mortar stores were swiped by the pandemic, and what's worse, even before Covid, they had been struggling to survive the so-called "Amazon effect." Both smaller operators and large national chains are dealing with persistent inflation and increasing rates on debt obligations. It is projected that more than 15,000 stores across the country will shut their doors this year, which is more than double the number that closed last year. Among the biggest names that have recently closed multiple stores or even gone bankrupt are CVS, Kohl's, Walmart, JCPenney, At Home, GameStop, Macy's Rite Aid, Joann, and many more. That's right - all kinds of retailers and businesses are impacted by these challenging times, from popular and luxury brands, to department stores, to grocery and supermarket chains. All of them are fighting to survive. Taking all this into account, it's no surprise that one iconic mall retailer has closed two more stores. Image source: Shutterstock Nordstrom has a huge base of loyal customers for several reasons, among which consumer-focused experience is the most praised. It places a lot of effort on making service one of its strongest points, which seemed to have benefited both the company and customers. The fashion giant is often lauded for its personalized shopping experience, customer-centric culture, and amazingly generous return policy. It's often mentioned on social media, with fans claiming the retailer is extremely flexible, making every return hassle-free. Related: Largest office supply retailer closing stores, no bankruptcy Nordstrom now operates around 350 stores, but it all started back in 1901 when the first shoe store opened at Fourth and Pike in Seattle. That's right, the first one was a shoe store. John W. Nordstrom, a young and hardworking immigrant from Sweden, worked in mines, went to Alaska in search of gold, and then was offered and accepted a partnership by Seattle shoemaker Carl F. Wallin. More Retail: Huge retail chain suddenly closing hundreds of storesMajor retailer scores huge benefit from Joann bankruptcyHome Depot, Target, Ulta and more strike back at retail crime The business grew, and by 1960, the Seattle shoe shop became the biggest across the nation, running eight locations in Washington and Oregon. In 1971, the company went public, and two years later, Nordstrom was recognized as the biggest fashion specialty store on the West Coast. Despite its capacity and customer loyalty, Nordstrom is not immune to the current economic challenges and alarming customer trends, which is why over the last five years, it has closed more than a dozen stores. Nordstrom's latest store to close after nearly 15 years is the one at Santa Monica Place, California. Related: Costco brings back controversial perk, dividing loyal shoppers "We believe we'll be best able to serve customers in the area by leveraging our surrounding stores and through our digital channels," Nordstrom said in a statement, according to 4NBC Los Angeles. The three-level store, often praised for its location, which is two blocks from the beach, will have its last business day on August 26. Nordstrom has not yet revealed how many people might lose their jobs, but added it will help them find another position within the company. Earlier in June, Nordstrom confirmed it would close another of its mall locations this summer. It is the store inside the Saint Louis Galleria in Richmond Heights, Missouri. A Nordstrom spokesperson shared that the closure is part of a wider strategy to focus on nearby locations and digital operations, reported 5 On Your Side. About 135 employees should be impacted by the closure of the Galleria locations, and some of them will have a chance to transfer to other Nordstrom stores. Nordstrom also operates two Nordstrom Rack stores in the St. Louis region, one at 1585 South Brentwood Blvd. in Brentwood, and another at 100 Highlands Blvd. Drive in Manchester.

If you've got summer travel plans but your luggage has seen better days, there is no better time to shop for a deal. Between early Fourth of July savings and Prime Day around the corner, Amazon is already slashing prices across a wide range of categories -- including travel. Right now, you can pick up the highly-rated 28-inch Samsonite Freeform rolling suitcase for $98. This massive checked suitcase is usually priced at $280, so you'll save $182 today. While you don't need any coupon codes, you do need to be a Prime member. And if you're thinking about waiting until the official July 8 start date of Prime Day, we suggest you reconsider. We've never seen this luggage priced this low on Amazon and it's currently listed as a limited-time deal. That means the price may not last much longer. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. This generously sized suitcase measures 31.1 inches by 20.9 inches by 13.8 inches, including the wheels. It's hardshell, expandable and features four dual 360-degree spinner wheels for easy gliding. It has a TSA lock to keep your items secure when your eyes aren't on your bag, too. To get the biggest discount, you'll want to opt for black, light blue or navy. Other colors are on sale, but aren't priced quite as low. Other sizes and sets in this line are also discounted, such as the two-piece set which includes a 21-inch carry-on and the 28-inch checked size. You can pick up the duo in several colors for $240, which is half-off the regular price of $480. Why this deal matters At 65% off, if you're in the market for a big suitcase that can hold everything, this is a great bargain. Samsonite is a trusted brand, and the luggage even includes a 10-year warranty. It's hard to go wrong with this offer, since it's at a record-low price and we don't anticipate it going any lower anytime soon. If you want it, we suggest grabbing it now before the price goes up.

Nothing's ‘first true flagship' phone plays it a little safe
'The Glyph interface is not a gimmick,' Nothing founder and CEO Carl Pei told the press as he revealed the Nothing Phone 3 for the first time, shortly before announcing that its new iteration lets you play Spin the Bottle on the back of the phone. It's mixed messaging, but in Nothing's defense, you couldn't accuse them of making that mistake elsewhere. The Phone 3, we're told, is Nothing's 'first true flagship phone,' a point the company is keen to hammer home: flagship chip, flagship camera, flagship price. In fact, it's so flagship that the company is even springing for a true US launch, its first since 2023's Phone 2, which Pei tells me only makes sense for their 'premium' phones. At $799, the Phone 3 is priced to match the iPhone 16, Galaxy S25, and Pixel 9, as Nothing positions itself firmly outside its mid-range origins, and Pei says the company feels ready 'to compete with products in that price level.' Preorders open Friday, July 4th, with general sale starting from the 15th from Nothing's own webstore and Amazon in the US. Nothing says the phone is fully compatible with T-Mobile and AT&T, with 'more limited 5G support' on Verizon. This is Nothing's most expensive phone yet, but on paper the specs should keep pace with the price. The Snapdragon 8S Gen 4 chip isn't the most powerful around right now, but its performance should cope with all but the most demanding mobile games, especially paired with up to 16GB of RAM. Storage starts at 256GB, and for an additional $100, you can get 512GB. The Nothing Phone 3 uses a silicon-carbon battery, a relatively new technology that makes it easier to fit big batteries into small phones. Here, that means a generous 5,150mAh capacity, combined with a 65W wired charging speed and 15W wireless charging speed. The 6.67-inch OLED screen is more than twice as bright as the Phone 2's, and the IP68 water- and dust-resistance rating is a first for Nothing too. All four of the cameras — three on the back, one on the front — are 50-megapixel, though it'll be impossible to say whether they're any good until we get to test the phone out properly. Nothing's camera processing has lagged a little behind the competition in the past, so this'll be the area to watch. All that's in line with other flagship phones, so what makes the Phone 3 feel like Nothing? That's where that new, gimmick-free Glyph design comes in. While previous Nothing phones have featured an array of light strips that can glow and flash in custom patterns for notifications and ringtones, here, those have been swapped out for a small, circular dot matrix LED display in one corner of the back of the phone. The Glyph Matrix is immediately less striking than the older phones' designs, and less unique too — Asus has included dot matrix displays on the back of its ROG gaming phones for years. Pei told me that the advantage is that custom notifications can be 'much more immediate,' with easily recognizable images or emoji tied to specific apps and contacts rather than abstract animations that might be hard to grok at a glance. Then there are the Glyph-focused games, officially dubbed Glyph Toys, designed to add a touch of fun that's 'severely lacking in the space right now.' The Phone 3 launches with Spin the Bottle, Rock Paper Scissors, and more functional fare like a stopwatch and battery indicator, which you can cycle between using a haptic button hidden among the many shapes on the semi-transparent rear. Pei suggests you could use Spin the Bottle to help decide how to split the bill at dinner, one of those jokes that plays well during a keynote speech but doesn't make much sense when you really think about it. Pei insists that Nothing isn't done iterating on the Glyph Matrix. He calls the 'expandability' the most exciting part of the new design, citing Glyph Toys already developed based on ideas from the company's 'community' of fans, like a magic eight ball. 'I think they might invent some novel use cases we haven't even thought of yet,' Pei says. The Phone 3 also sees the return of the Essential Key, a side button that debuted on the Phone 3A and 3A Pro earlier this year. It's customizable, but by default launches Essential Space, an AI-powered app that stores and analyzes screenshots to give you reminders about events or travel plans. New to this phone is the option to transcribe and summarize meeting audio, along with a universal search bar that can track down everything from contacts to photos and answer basic factual queries. The Phone 3 is a big swing for Nothing. It's the company's first move into the flagship market, and its first effort to crack the US in two years, so perhaps it's no surprise that the phone's new Glyph design is a little more conservative than we're used to. Still, Nothing playing it safe has produced a bolder and more divisive phone than any Samsung or Apple has put out in years — just don't call it a gimmick.
