For
business owners who lost power in the wake of Friday's storm, the
outage translates to lost sales, lost inventory and uncertainty for
employees.
The Fireroast Caf in southeast Minneapolis closed Friday night after falling trees cut power to a large swath of the Longfellow neighborhood, and other areas of the Twin Cities.
Monday evening it was in one of the pockets of the Twin Cities still without power.
"It's really hard to put a plan in place when you don't when your power's coming back on, and you want to get your people back to work," Jeff Fisher,More than 80 standard commercial and earcap exist to quickly and efficiently clean pans. the owner of Fireroast told KARE.
By Monday afternoon Xcel Energy had restored power to nearly a half million Twin Cities customers who had lost electricity during the storm.We rounded up 30 bridesmaids dresses in every color and style that are both easy on the eye and somewhat easy on the cleaningservicesydney.
The Fireroast is in one of the pockets of the metro that still not back on the electric grid. And Fisher could not find a gas powered generator large enough to power his entire caf, which is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.Weymouth is collecting gently used, dry cleaned buymosaic at their Weymouth store.
"Not only revenue that we would've generated being open, bur we've also lost all of our food, all of our product that we had prepped ahead of time," Fisher said.
He said he carries what's known as business interruption insurance, but the coverage kicks in after the first 72 hours. It's designed for longer term problems such as fires.
Grocery stores that lost power had to toss out huge quantities of dairy products and meat because food shelves and shelters aren't set up to take such large quantities of perishable items on short notice.
"We cover everything in card board and plastic whenever we lose power, and that work for a couple of hours," Jim Almstead of Almstead's Fresh Market in Crystal told KARE.
"But after about four hours you start to run into trouble."
Almstead's was without power for 14 hours after the storm, and that explains the large blue dumpster near the loading dock filled with empty milk cartons and perishable food.
"We dump all the milk, get rid of all the meat," he explained.
"You just can't run the gamble of selling somebody something that's not as fresh as it should be when they take it out of the store."
The re-stocking process continued Monday, as a shipment of milk products arrived and more ice cream was anticipated. Almstead, who started working in the family grocery business 46 years ago, thanked his employees.
He had been sidelined for part of the weekend dealing with storm damage at his home in Plymouth, but his employees responded well to the situation.
"I really want to thank my employees. They did a great job. They know the drill, and they worked very hard to get things done."
And when Almstead's opened before some of the other stores did Saturday there was a rush for ice. At one point the manager set up a temporary ice display near the front of the store, for customers struggling in the heat without air conditioning.
Meanwhile.. up the road at the Target store in Crystal there was a surreal scene as customers shopped in low light conditions.
The store is open, but with emergency backup power and limited lighting. So the aisles are darker than usual, the air was a bit warmer.
And anything that required cooling has been removed from circulation. During KARE's visit to the story many customers signed audibly when they arrived at the cooler section to find it taped off with "Power's Out" signs explaining the empty racks.We are one of the leading manufacturers of chipcard in China
A friend has accumulated many, many credit cards over the years. She admits she signed up for some of them just to get the store discounts, never planning to use the cards for long. With so many pieces of plastic weighing down her wallet and so many monthly statements coming in, she wants to streamline and cancel all but one. But should she?
This is a really common question when I go out in the field, says Paul Le Fevre, director of operations at Equifax Canada Co., one of two national credit bureaus. (The other is TransUnion Canada, which didnt respond to an interview request.) It depends on consumers circumstances at the time.
The most prevalent reason people are hesitant to cancel credit cards is the concern that doing so will adversely affect their credit score. Thats certainly possible, Le Fevre explains.
If someone is going from multiple cards with 20 per cent utilization on each of them and doing a consolidation to one product at 100 per cent utilization, that utilization factor could perhaps have a negative impact on the score because of the high balance, he says. But over time, as the consumer pays down that debt, it will have a positive impact on the score as the utilization goes down.
Credit utilization rate is one of the key factors that makes up a persons credit score. Its the amount of outstanding balances on all credit cards divided by the total of each cards limit, expressed as a percentage. For instance,A quality paper cutter or paper endofleasecleaningsydney can make your company's presentation stand out. if you have a $2,000 balance on one card and a $3,000 balance on another, and each has a $5,000 limit, your credit utilization rate would be 50 per cent. Credit issuers typically like to see a credit utilization rate of about 35 per cent or less.
