Dear @thedeal,

If you can find and post the so-called quote I made that "this is the next Gap" [please post the entire quote/post so it is in context] then I will admit it AND donate $100 to a charity that plants trees. Please provide the date and thread of the quote as well.

If you cannot find the so-called quote you said I made that "this is the next Gap" then as an apology, please send $100 to the same charity as indicated above.

I shall provide info of this charity as soon as we have the answer.

This is line with my new resolution of discussing the merits and demerits of investments.

Sincerely,

VVS

P.S. Doesn't apply to @Obiero (& KQ) coz I want a little fun Laughing out loudly plus he still owes me 100k + interest smile

Kujeni BBK, you will not experience this administration madness. Time tested.

The CEO earns 23m a year to run this thing to the ground and burn shareholders and bondholders to recognition. Kenya has a peculiar way of rewarding mediocrity

Anyone could see this coming. Have any of you walked into a deacons operated store? I went to thebabyshop Sarit a few months back and the staff treated us like they were doing us a favor.

We had originally stopped going to ths shop a few years earlier because of the same reason. Thought they had changed.

It’s like a friend went to Bata the other day to buy. Shoes, the shoes were like 5K and the shop charged him 30/- for a bag. He said he can’t be buying shoes for 5K and still having to pay for a juala (pardon the french)

So he asked for the manager and said he will not buy the shoes as he has to pay for the bag and she said Sawa tu and he left without buying em hmmmppfff

Deacons also had issues with choice of clothing...they had bad taste tbh.

And why set up separate stores of Adidas etc...why not just do single stores and save on rent?

Daft, but what do you expect from a politician.
