The slowdown in the economy & the store closings may not have anything to do with each other :wink: ....
Just one example, Sharper Image took a dump when they were sued due to their Air Cleaner products were emitting ozone.

Yea really they were dead a long time ago.
Places like foot locker are dying because of a place called Dick's. Circuit city and other retailers are dying because of the internet and super stores like Best Buy. I think Home Depot is a victim of over saturation. I mean we have one in Copaigue and then another right down the highway? Most of the company were bleeding bad long before the downturn in the economy hit like GM. Let them die. We are partly to blame. When is the last time you walked into a brick and mortar place to shop? It's all click clilck now.

Something else to add, I went into Linen & things last week due to their 80% off store closing sales & that was the first time I ever went into the store, another observation, the store was looked & had the same layout as Bed, Bath, & Beyond...
