Fast Five | Dollar General Expands Self-Checkout, Old Navy Cuts Sizes, & Sephora Goes Curbcierge

In today’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five Podcast, sponsored by Microsoft, the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Takeoff, and Sezzle, Anne Mezzenga and Chris Walton go deep on:

– Dollar General’s self-checkout only pilot

– Brookfield and Sephora’s new “curbcierge” service

– UPS acquiring Delivery Solutions

– Tortoise’s remote-controlled store on wheels at the Mall of America

– And closed with a look at Old Navy’s decision to cut back on its more inclusive sizing strategy

There’s all that, plus burrito tape, dining out in the Metaverse, and hurling sweet treats to defile priceless works of art.
