Why YSK: If you bought something from any of these brands lately and thought "this feels cheaper than it used to," you're not imagining it. The brand you trusted doesn't make anything anymore. It's a logo stapled to a royalty agreement. The company is called Authentic Brands Group. Their playbook is to wait for a beloved brand to hit financial trouble. Buy the intellectual property. The name, the logo, the trademarks. Strip out the designers, the factory workers, the quality control. Then license the brand name to third-party companies who actually make and sell everything. ABG just collects royalty checks. Their own IPO filing admitted it: "We generally do not design or manufacture the products associated with our brands and therefore have more limited control over such products' quality". They call themselves "brand guardians." What they guard is the trademark. Not the stitching, the materials, or the people who made the thing worth buying in the first place. Here's what happens after ABG "saves" a brand. Brooks Brothers was founded in 1818 and dressed 40 presidents. ABG bought it out of bankruptcy in 2020 and launched a cheap diffusion line at Macy's that reviewers called "a little bit shabby." Eddie Bauer was bought by ABG in 2021. Just filed its third bankruptcy in February 2026. All 174 stores closing. Forever 21 was bought out of bankruptcy in 2020 and went bankrupt again in 2025. Lost over $400 million in three years. ABG's own CEO called buying it "probably the biggest mistake I made". All 350 U.S. stores gone. ABG doesn't need the stores to survive. When an operating partner goes bankrupt, ABG still owns the brand. They just find another licensee. The workers lose their jobs. ABG loses nothing. And ABG isn't the only company doing this. Here's who owns what so you can make informed choices: Authentic Brands Group: Aéropostale, Arrow, Barneys New York, Billabong, Brooks Brothers, Champion, DC Shoes, Dockers, Eddie Bauer, Element, Forever 21, Frederick's of Hollywood, Frye, Greg Norman, Guess (pending), Hunter Boots, Izod, Jones New York, Juicy Couture, Lucky Brand, Nautica, Nine West, Prince, Quiksilver, Reebok, Rockport, Roxy, RVCA, Sperry, Spyder, Tapout, Ted Baker, Van Heusen, Vince, Volcom WHP Global: Toys "R" Us, Babies "R" Us, Rag & Bone, Vera Wang, G-Star, Express, Bonobos, Joe's Jeans, Anne Klein, Joseph Abboud, Isaac Mizrahi, Warners, Lotto, Lands' End Marquee Brands: Martha Stewart, Laura Ashley, Sur La Table, Emeril Lagasse, America's Test Kitchen, BCBGMAXAZRIA, BCBG, Ben Sherman, Bruno Magli, Anti Social Social Club, Totes, Isotoner, Destination Maternity, Motherhood, A Pea in the Pod, Stance, Dakine, Body Glove Same playbook everywhere. Buy the name. Gut the product. Collect the rent. Edit: This blew up way more than expected. A few of you have DMed asking where I get this information.

I'm seeing posts where people are saying they're not buying any clothes, or getting any take-out for an entire year. TBH that seems very unrealistic. I'm interested in doing a no-buy, but I want it to be something that can actually be achieved. I'm thinking of trying it for 3 months rather than a year. Anyone else doing something similar? submitted by /u/DareWright to r/nobuy [link] [comments]

What do you think? Too ambitious? I'm kind of up for the challenge. submitted by /u/LifeSux_N_ThenYouDie to r/shoppingaddiction [link] [comments]

Mi az amit biztosan nem vesztek? Mit cseréltek olcsóbbra? Én az alabbiakat szedtem össze : -nem veszek új kozmetikumot sminket, csak ha elfogy - nem veszünk ruhát az egész családban, a gyerekeknek sem, csak ha tényleg szükség van valamire, rengeteg ruhánk van, hajlamos vagyok akár havi 100.000-ért is ruhát, cipőt venni (3 gyerek van) - az élelmiszervásárlást optimalizáljuk - ételt nem rendelünk - nem veszek szezonális dekorációt, semmilyen lakásdekorációt - a mosószert (ariel kapszula 10.000 Ft), lidl-ös folyékony mosószerre cseréltem - az Öblítőt elhagytam, nem veszek többet, a szárítógép miatt úgy sem érződik. - Rengeteg tisztítószer van itthon, mikor akciós feltankolok, pl jelenleg 6-7 domestos. Nem veszek csak mikor elfogy, és csak egyet. - Szépségipari szolgáltatásra nem költök - hobbiból gyűjtök valamit, arra nem költök 2026-ban. submitted by /u/Bright-Remove-2216 to r/askhungary [link] [comments]
