Empty jewelry cases

The jewelry section was quickly running low on stock, which surprised me a bit, since jewelry doesn't seem like the kind of thing to sell fast, even in a store closing sale. But, of course, it's quite likely that Macy's would have moved much of the stock to other stores -- I don't know how high end the jewelry Macy's sells is, but some of the stuff here was probably among the highest-priced items in the store, so taking 40% off of that could have meant a substantial loss for Macy's. (Other high-value items, like mattresses and furniture, wouldn't have been impacted in the same way, since the only things in the store that were being sold at a discount were the display models, which wouldn't have sold for full price anyway.)
