Amazon quietly started promoting a new kind of store after pulling the plug on its pop-up kiosks - Business Insider

Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere when he heard shushing and hushing outside the Panzermobile. Following all the "Be quiet" noises outside took our inquisitive kitty to the Business Insider site. There he discovered a post about Amazon's newest stores.

There's something useful in here somewhere.
According to Dennis Green, Amazon has been opening some new stores. The post begins with a screen shot from the Amazon website featuring the Presented by Amazon stores. Below that is a list of the main points of the post. Scrolling past that is the actual post. Amazon closed all their mall pop-up kiosks in April and now have four mall locations for the Presented by Amazon stores. The new stores are retail outlets although Business Insider is unsure about the type of merchandise to be sold in them. There's a link in the post to the Amazon website where you'll see links to each of the four new stores. Following each of those links will take you to a page which lists the address, phone number and a location map for the individual store.

Panzer says, "It's a rabbit warren of links. Don't get lost."

Note: This is a medium length post. Bring a cup of tea and two chocolate chip cookies (biscuits) for today's reading selection. If you follow the links, bring another cup of tea, a muffin and a headache tablet (because you're going to have a headache after following all those links.)

As retail rivals retreat, Indigo Books plans five U.S. stores in next two years - Financial Post

Not your average book store?
Today Panzer's trip into the Catosphere took him to the Financial Post site. There with just a little digging he found a post about Canada's Indigo Books future plans.

According to the post at Financial Post by Hollie Shaw, Canada's Indigo Books and Music plans to open its first store in the United States. The store will be in the Mall in Short Hills, New Jersey. It doesn't appear Indigo Books will be in direct competition with Amazon or Barnes and Noble's bricks and mortar stores, because in addition to books Indigo also sells toys, baby items and other general merchandise.

Panzer says, "Umm ... This little kitty wants to know if they sell e-readers. ... And ... If they do, what kind?"

Note: This is a medium length post. Bring a cup of tea and two muffins for today's reading selection.
