Fast Five | Lulu & Peloton Cozy Up, Macy’s Is Big On Small & Cooler Screens Goes Wapner On Walgreens

In this week’s Omni Talk Fast Five, sponsored by the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Firework, Avalara, TGW, and Sezzle, Chris and Anne:

Discussed why the Peloton and Lululemon partnership feels like vanilla ice cream
Looked at the “shrinking” list of reasons behind Walmart removing self-checkout from three New Mexico stores
Highlighted Gelson’s new store concept as the potential convenience store of the future
Questioned everything there is to question about Macy’s small store strategy
And closed with a look at why Cooler Screens lawsuit against Walgreens could signal that the in-store retail media craze is way overhyped

There’s all that, plus ravioli-shaped moons, frozen caveman lawyers, and Anne’s worst wedgie of all-time.
