...down to the business of your new book. What are Spanx? You know what? Spanx are a sham. Spanx are an evil hoax perpetrated upon womanhood. It happened to me when I was in a store.

...really big markdowns were on specific items, not across the store as they were last year, says Katz. "They were price-point driven, not percent-off driven," he says. "You saw a lot of gifts under $50 or gifts under $100 - you didn...
