Macy’s Mainstreams Diversity in their Gift Cards
Posted on January 5, 2010
Gift cards from the Northbrook Court Macy’s in a NW suburb of Chicago not known for being particularly diverse but that is seeing a growing diverse population. Not only do we see minority faces, but importantly, more realistic and complex mixtures such as the interacial couple on the scooter and the mixed race girls with a Spanish holiday greeting — and, for good measure, we still have a classic Claus.




And regardless of the season, it’s always someone’s cumpleaños — birthday!
