I don't know anything about what Bon-Ton and Elder-Beerman stores are like. Surely some GreekChatters can fill us in on them. .

Re: Elder-Beerman. There's a small one in Mattoon, IL which is one town over from Eastern Illinois Univesity where I'm currently in grad. school. It's a nice store, and they seem to have some of the same merchandise CPS does. It's hard to make a direct comparision since the CPS I work at is the third largest in the chain, and this store is about the size of our entire women's department.
We haven't been told much about the takeover. We know that many people in Carsons Credit have lost, or will soon lose, their jobs. I called in for a customer over Christmas, and the credit person point-blank told me she didn't care as her last day would be Jan. 6th.
If any of you are interested, I'll post more about the takeover as soon as I find out more details. Supposedly, we'll hear more after inventory, which is at the end of the month.
