Re: Macy's or Bloomingdales 2 Nov 2011, 15:31 Macy's is the biggest department store chain in the US (I don't count places like Target and Wal-Mart in the department store category) and has a huge selection of mid-range, quality items with a reasonable share of designers represented as well.
Owner of Macy's, Bloomingdale's, I. Magnin (defunct), Stern's (defunct), Marshall Field's (defunct), Filene's (defunct) and some others involving the Macy's name. Founded in 1929, operates 465 stores. Federated acquired May Department Stores in 2005 for $11B. The company changed its name to Macy's in 2007.
