So, obviously, if you go to a brick-n-mortar store and buy something there, it counts as a sale for the store, with stores that don’t get enough sales often closing. But if I order something online from, say, Best Buy and pick it up in store, how is that tracked? Does it count as a sale for the store, even though I didn’t actually buy it there? If not, do companies use a separate metric (ie this store doesn’t get as many sales, but people still come in to pick up stuff, so we’ll keep it open)?

    When I worked at Costco it did. And if you bought it at one store and returned it another that store gets the hit for the return.
