    December 17, 2011 Holidays are for socializing by Darrell Rigby, Kris Miller, Josh Chernoff and Suzanne Tager Retail sales seem to be following the traditional holiday pattern: slowing as customers wait for Black Friday, then a rush through the Thanksgiving weekend and Cyber Monday, followed by a lull before the final sprint to Christmas. As we write this, overall retail sales seem to be meeting or exceeding our 3% growth expectations. GAFS sales were up 3.9% in November, and early- December reports indicate only minor deceleration in same-store sales growth. E-commerce continues to lead the way, with sales up 15% through November and early December. Still, with five of the heaviest shopping days of the season to come, mixed economic signals and aggressive competition mean retailers will be squeezing every drop out of every marketing dollar until the holiday season wraps up. Retailers race toward the finish line after a strong November November positioned many retailers for a successful holiday season. According to the Census Bureau, GAFS sales grew 3.9% over last year, more than a full percentage point above the 10-year average growth rate.1 Total GAFS sales reached $105.2 billion, finally breaking the previous November record of $103.7 billion set in prerecession 2007 (Chart 1). This growth comes on top of a strong November 2010, in which GAFS sales increased 5.3% over 2009. The positive November results prompted the National Retail Federation to raise its forecast for holiday season sales growth from 2.8% to 3.8%. Two broad categories were particularly successful: Sporting goods, hobby, book and music store sales were up 7.2%, and sales at electronics and appliances stores rose 6.6%.

    Masculinity and the Male Body in Old Spice's Smell Like a Man, Man And

    THE MAN YOUR MAN SHOULD BE LIKE: MASCULINITY AND THE MALE BODY IN OLD SPICE’S SMELL LIKE A MAN, MAN AND SMELL IS POWER CAMPAIGNS Yannick Kluch A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2014 Committee: Becca Cragin, Advisor Marilyn Motz Rebecca Kinney © 2014 Yannick Kluch All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Becca Cragin, Advisor This thesis analyzes the highly popular Old Spice commercials as a contemporary cultural guide on masculinity; it addresses a number of issues related to the construction of masculinities in contemporary American culture. Both Old Spice campaigns under analysis offer great insight into cultural ideals related to the construction of hegemonic masculinity. Through a detailed textual analysis of the commercials in these campaigns, I unravel those ideals and analyze how masculinity is constructed through the protagonists’ appearances and bodies, sexuality, behaviors, as well as their character patterns and mannerisms. I argue that while both Old Spice campaigns suggest that hegemonic masculinity is the only acceptable form of masculinity, hegemonic masculinity is perpetuated in two very different ways. In the Smell Like A Man, Man campaign, satire is used as a means to disguise the blunt promotion of hegemonic masculinity. The Smell is Power campaign, on the other hand, uses a very blunt approach: its overt character clearly encourages the viewer to directly align with hegemonic notions of masculinity. Both campaigns are thus representative of a certain ambiguity that is so often to be found in postmodern texts.
