closing

No matter what business it is, it's always unfortunate to see any location have to close up shop. It just so happens that a popular retail chain recently announced that it is having to close several of its stores across the country, and that happens to include one of its locations here in Massachusetts.

An end of an era has come as Party City is planning on closing its stores after nearly 40 years in business. And they're not just closing some of them, they're closing all of them!

No matter what store it is, we always hate to see it happen wherever it may be, but especially when a store needs to close its doors in Massachusetts. One the more popular retail chains in the Bay State after the holiday season and in effect causing several layoffs for the current employees.

As everyone knows, times are especially tough right now. When a Massachusetts business has to close its doors for good, that just hits that much harder.

Just recently the Craft Food Barn took to social media that they would be closing for the season for the first time ever during the winter months and will return in the Spring.

Some sad news to pass along to you, Massachusetts. Another local company will be closing it doors soon--permanently--and laying off 47 employees.

Some more sad news for my fellow Massachusetts residents who love shopping at chain stores. Lately, many retailers are closing locations all over the country.

Some sad news for those of you who love shopping. A popular retail store chain just announced it will closing SIX of its Massachusetts locations.

Some sad news for those of you who love shopping. Big Lots says it will be closing almost 90 locations in several states including Massachusetts.

The worst thing in the world for us consumers is when a favorite restaurant or retail store that we've had a long history with suddenly closes down.
