Economic Relief

:

Duane Reade has been working the recession angle with its "Economic Relief Package" sales event. The January circular, complete with rugged, militaristic type and art depicting air drop packages looks to be an attempt at pointing out similarities between the current economic climate in the city with that of war torn areas. Or, maybe, it's their way of saying - "hey it could be worse!" Either way, what economic relief package is complete without pain medicine, beauty products for that interview, and mega discounts for restocking your Christmas product supply?
