No matter what is said on this websight, belk keeps on shufflin’ along. She may be old, broken, unstylish, and downright ratchet, but she keeps staying afloat. Those Kim Rogers tshirts are Payin the bills.

I noticed new mood music . It's a refreshing change. I wonder if Belk stiffed the Muzik company along with the rest of our vendors?
Why Did Lisa Harper Step Down?
