What I hope will happen will be more sales, more price matching and a better selection of merch all the way around.
Zellers was a perfect example of how to fail at retail. They are still charging $24.99(50% off now so $12.50) for Wave 1 of Transformers Prime. The whole lets double the price and then have a sale ploy is a complete failure. First people get wise, then people stop shopping at your store. Case closed.

Being overpriced is certainly part of it, the other is the fact that they could not/did not turnover their inventory. You could easily find items from 3 to 7 years ago sitting on their shelves.
As for pricing I'm expecting they to be on par or a little bit better that TRU. There is no way they are going to match Walmart and I don't expect them to considering no retailer does.
