Help my daughter in the box

My U9 daughter (playing U10) is having a really great season but when she gets the ball in the penalty area she's sort of spazzes out and never gets a shot.

To put it in perspective, the good strikers on the team will maybe get two touches a game in the box and score one goal.

My daughter will get like six to seven touches in the box, with just one defender to beat, and never even get a shot. She panics and rushes.

She definitely has the touch and ball skills to do a little move, move into space and get a nice shot if she could calm down.

Are there any specific drills or coaching techniques you all would suggest to help her with this?

Recieving Inventory - Purchase Orders? Invoices? A secret third thing?

Hi there, we're new to retail but suddenly own a full-blown store. We're getting our arms around everything pretty well, but I don't think our inventory receiving process is great.

Seems like there are two options: purchase orders or just using the invoices.

I'm wondering what most people do - do you create purchase orders to manage receiving orders?

I've worked in 3 POS systems so far (We're installing Toast, atm, because I think it will give me the good inventory insights I want), and the purchase order process seems cumbersome.

But one annoyance: I haven't seen a way to create new items as part of a purchase order creation, so we frequently have to do that as a pre-step. This will probably be less of an issue when we're in a rhythm and RE-ordering, but so far we've been ordering a ton of new inventory, so the items need to be created in our system before the purchase order is created.

Another thing that feels inefficient: purchase orders are like a recreation of the order we just placed, feels duplicative and unnecessary.

We've noticed that commonly POS systems also allow for receiving inventory from an invoice; is that a better way to go? Doing it that way seems to create the items at the time of invoice upload, but does receiving inventory this way work as well? Would we be losing anything if we do it this way?

Any insights you can offer are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance :)

Fix my PS3

Hi there - I'm looking for someone who can help me get my PS3 functional. I really want to play Little Big Planet but the system and the game seem to be in a perpetual state of requiring an update that is impossible to access (is Playstation's support and update infrastructure for the 3 just entirely shut down?)

I haven't followed whats going on at all - currently we're xbox users. Is there any way to get an old system functional?

Thanks in advance!

Considering Toast over Square

I don't think this question has been asked for a few years - we're buying a brick and mortar toy store (completely new to retail) and considering moving from Square to Toast. We've been researching this topic, and it seems Square has some limitations. We also received a Toast demo and it seems lightyears ahead of Square in terms of inventory management, reporting, insights, etc. It also has ecommerce (Square probably better, but not hugely important to us) and checks all of our boxes

Also wondering if you would reccomend using Toast for payroll. We have only two employees, fairy simple.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or insights you can provde.

Escalante River in Escalante

Hey there, we're considering Escalante for a camping trip over the 4th of July. But if we're going to go there midsummer I want to know there's lots of water play.

Is the Escalante River one prone to drying up in the summer or would our week winter result in really low flow? or is it one that should be running all summer no matter what.

thanks!
