Chicago Sun-Times - All | Party City making comeback inside Staples by Amy Yee

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Party City has returned to Illinois by opening shop‑in‑shop locations inside more than 700 Staples stores nationwide, with eight sites now operating in the state—including a Loop location at 111 N. Wabash Ave. and stores in Glen Ellyn, Glenview, and Shorewood—and plans to add more by year‑end. After filing for bankruptcy and closing its Chicago outlets in 2024, the retailer partnered with Staples, whose extensive national footprint and community ties made it an ideal revival partner, according to Party City owner Ad Populum’s CEO Joel Weinshanker. The new format lets Party City sell traditional party supplies such as décor, favors, tableware, gift bags, costume accessories, balloons, and more, while Staples’ print services provide banners, yard signs, posters and personalized invitations, with balloon pickups now available through Staples’ website and app. The collaboration aims to combine party‑goods convenience with Staples’ printing capabilities, a response to the e‑commerce and pop‑up competition that previously drove Party City out of business.

Whenever anyone suggests Amazon - especially in local stores - my response is increasingly:

”I try not to support billionaires!”

Anything to add to my list of alternatives?
1) Buy locally from stores like #AceHardware, #staples
2) Online electronics from #BHPhotoStore, #Crutchfield
3) Directly from company websites

Maybe more questionable:
#Walmart - Are they better than Amazon?
(see last post & ⬇️)
#NewEgg - electronics
#bestbuy - improving?

Walmart vs. Amazon: A Study in Corporate Ethics and Transparency - Global Business & Economics Journal

Walmart and Amazon illustrate contrasting corporate ethics in a politically charged climate. As Walmart embraces transparency, Amazon's strategic alliances raise questions about its commitment to accountability and human rights.

Global Business & Economics Journal

@mason I feel this in my bones & work diligently to NOT use Amazon.

Here's my alternatives:
1) Buy locally from independent stores like #AceHardware
2) Online electronics from #BHPhotoStore, #Crutchfield or #staples

Maybe more questionable:
#Walmart - are they better than Amazon? (serious question)
#NewEgg - electronics
#bestbuy - improving?

Even with all this - Amazon is often the cheapest & easiest alternative for many... good luck with convincing people to not shop there.

We attached the blades with screws so you can easily service them. Good luck!

I ordered two remanufactured toner cartridges for my #HP #printer. These are Staples-branded cartridges and the #Staples website claims they're compatible.
Today I tried to use them and the printer rejected them: bad chip.
It's bullshit that HP is still pulling this cartridge lock crap.
It's bullshit that Staples lied about the compatibility.
It's bullshit that because of these my printer is out of toner and the earliest I can get replacement cartridges is in three days.
😡😡😡😡
