I'm sad to hear some people had bad experiences here but I can confidently say that me and my family had great service and the refunds were great. I'll continue coming here, personally.

I think this store closed, right? The location is open but I don't see the Jack Spade name anywhere.

Is the store ever closing? I'm worried about it personally. It doesn't have that many customers lately. When I was there a few weeks ago I was the only one buying something.

Then again, it is a really important location for the rest of us here in Chandler. It isn't that essential but it is pretty important.

It's a pretty important place for me right now. Firehouse Subs is really dear to me due to nostalgic reasons.

Moon Audio never expanded properly but they neither have closed stores either. So I guess that's a good thing? At least in the grand scheme of things...

I'm happy that Nordstrom took the criticism they had online to heart and they have revitalized many of their older stores. Just because a store is old doesn't mean it needs to close, just freshen up a bit.

Noodles and Company has fallen off. I don't go here anymore... I'm pretty sure the cooks are underpaid. The only explanation I can give.

It's good working here. I didn't work here for too long before I had to leave but I had an excellent time here anyway.

It wasn't the best branch anyway. Always some issue going on here.

Electronic Express has some steady business going on. It's pretty good.

The store closed in Succasunna. Too bad.

They still offer high quality furniture. That's why they're open still.

Have stores gone under?

I'm happy with Weiss. I don't understand some of the criticism of it lately.

Anyone know?

Do they even help anyone anymore? I had more success with individual small groups that practice intermittent fasting than I ever did with WW. Waste of time to be into WW.

I do not think that XSportsProtective has any physical stores left.

Di-kie's shuttered some stores while some remain open. The future looks bleak but things could still change for the better with better management.

Did DIamond Wireless close stores?

Has Del Taco's popularity been waving a bit? This year, I've noticed smaller foot traffic in some of their locations.

DD's is the only thing that keeps my neighborhood alive at the moment. Thanks DD's.

De Beers isn't struggling with customers like some other jewelers. That's fascinating to me since they did struggle quite a bit nine years ago.

With stores like these gone I just advise people not to get pregnant. It's more moral to adopt these days anyways. Overpopulation and all that jazz.

OfficeMax in Machesney Park closed for some reason. It is unknown to me, to be sure.

Not sure myself. Online it says closed and that it will be replaced by another grocery store.

I'm not satisfied at all lately with this store. I don't think I ever was happy with it to begin with, actually. Now that I think of it.

Is there any talk behind the scenes that could indicate if Giant Food Stores is going to cut its workforce? Do some (dreaded) reductions?

People who work here look depressed. What's going on?

Has Dellaria been a disappointment to anyone else? It just isn't the salon I've known in my college years. I'm really let down with the drop in quality...

I like these locations. I've been to a dozen in the last past few years and they seemed reliable (to me).

I know some stores closed but I was under the impression that it was a temporary thing. What's the deal here? Some look closed, permanently, definitely.

You're never ever going to find authentic Italian cuisine here in the US but if you want genuine, honest and tasty Italian-American cuisine then you absolutely need to go to Johnny Carino’s.

Any information? Closings, layoff anything?

I was here last week and the place is packed. I like how clean it is, personally. I'm coming back here real soon. The competitors can't hold a candle to Giant Food.

I work at Giant Eagle in NJ (can't say exactly where due to reasons) and things are going really slow this month. There have been rumors of stores getting axed across the state.

Honest question?

I haven't heard or read about any closings so far. Business seems to be doing okay.

When will they refresh their inventory? The selection this fall has been spectacularly dull.

The menu could do with some changes. Especially in regards to the prices. Is all I'm saying.

There never was another store that could replace these. Honestly, it was over the moment the announcement was made that they aren't going to reopen and that their journey was done. None of their contemporaries can fill in their shoes (literally)... — read more 

I know some Winn-Dixie stores closed in the South but I don't know anything else beside that. Winn-Dixie has good stores so it would be a pity that they closed in one way or another.

These bars are going to disappear real soon. Not that we're becoming a puritan society or something like that, it's just that the novelty has finally worn off and if guys want s-x appeal, they can find it somewhere else. With better food.

Dollar General isn't doing anything worthwhile that could improve their shares this year. This could translate to some bad results soon which is very worrying.

It was nice while it lasted. I know it wasn't a perfect retailer but I really enjoyed what they had to offer at one point.

It is just so depressing to see what Joann ended up looking like. Its fate was so unexpected to me at least. I never saw this development coming and to see these stores go under is just heartbreaking. Yeah there's alternatives of course but I thought... — read more 

The Cheesecake Factory is the only chain that can stand tall and proud these days. Every single other chain is struggling to make ends meet but this kitschy and gaudy restaurant chain is thriving.

Applebee's has finally stepped up their game and they leveled up. Their restaurants were so dirty the last couple of years and I can say that they have improved very much in this regard. Who wants to eat at a dirty restaurant? Applebee's (finally!)... — read more 

The people crave healthier food, and if not healthy then at least something cheap... and Five Guys gives neither. Everyone is going elsewhere to eat now.

Once Upon A Child is such a hidden gem. A lot of people aren't even aware. Like, they really haven't heard about how good Once Upon A Child is. They just shrug it off like it's just a regular clothing store but no. It's much more than that and I wish... — read more 

There have been rumors about some cuts happening... like some sort of workforce reduction... I hate even thinking about it. Layoffs. Horrible thought. My daughter works at Ulta and she has been hearing these things. I hope this doesn't turn out to be... — read more 

Umami Burger is slowly conquering the East Coast and I wouldn't have it any other way. More people should eat at Umami as they offer good quality food and their hygienic practices are the best in the business. We should really be more mindful in... — read more 

So I read that Alabama Outdoors has been granted the title of "Retailer of The Year" by some places and to be real here... it's completely deserved. Just go to at least one store and you will see that the title is well deserved. From what I gather... — read more 

Anne Fontaine is just too focused on luxury. Nobody I know in my life can't afford Anne Fontaine and most of us live comfortably, knock on wood. Maybe it's time to get with the times and lower prices so the majority of people can afford your goods?... — read more 

I am SO not wowed by Diesel’s new Berlin flagship store. Good grief what's wrong with a normal, old-fashioned store that sells you stuff! I just don't get this anymore. I wouldn't be interested in shopping there at all if I were ever to visit Berlin... — read more 

IT'SUGAR has returned to normal. Everyone invested in IT'SUGAR is relieved now, I can tell you that. Things were looking more than bleak just a few years ago but the chain has bettered itself through marketing and reorganization. A good lesson from... — read more 

I personally think that Joe's Jeans could do wonders by improving their image with the public by properly expanding their plus size section this time. Things could always be better and there is always room for improvement. Nothing can be perfect but... — read more 

I'm a huge fan of Johnny Rockets. They have undeniably the best, most comforting and nostalgic aesthetic out of every other restaurant chain. The food is of course out of the world and amazing too. Which is the most important thing but you gotta... — read more 

I am not that impressed by Kangaroo Express. People have recommended it to me solely because it's closer than other stores but truthfully that convenience isn't worth it, in my opinion. I will always prefer quality over simple convenience, but then... — read more 

Kabuki was barely even mentioned in the late 2010s but these days whenever I'm out people say "Kabuki is the best restaurant in town" like almost daily I hear that stuff... I wonder what changed? Word of mouth? To be fair, Kabuki was always good... — read more 

Does anyone miss their Baja Sol? Mine was located at 4997 Excelsior Blvd in St Louis. I went there with friends because god knew we didn't know how to cook. Baja Sol fed us over our college years. That alone was a mythical feat. I'm really sad it... — read more 

My special interest is cobbling and everything it entails so I was really giddy to spend an afternoon at Dansko after hearing all the praise over the years. And you know what? The hype was well deserved. If you need some good quality shoes go get... — read more 

As a longtime fan, it is genuinely heartbreaking seeing Del Sol fall so hard from grace. Things can never return to what they were again and that's such a sad thing to think about. I suppose most retailers go through this. Goodbye Del Sol, it was... — read more 

My friend got a job at Caribou despite my protests. You see, I didn't like working at Caribou not even a little bit. However, she's saying that the situation has gotten so much better in such a small period of time. I'm really happy that working... — read more 

Baskin-Robbins is one of my favorite chains, ever. I love it so much that I even collect Baskin-Robbins memorabilia that I put in my scrapbook. Their design is so aesthetically pleasing that it fits anywhere. Anyway, I love them a lot. Will there... — read more 

Going to California Tortilla each Thursday has sort of become a tradition for our family. My niece is such a picky eater and honestly my son isn't better in that regard either but every Thursday after we pick them up from school they eat their fill... — read more 

Bashas' is such a good addition to our neighborhood. I was a bit apprehensive when they first opened up as I was used to our old Walmart but they quickly proved to be an even better alternative than that old Walmart. I hope it never closes down... — read more 

It is very good that Baja Fresh is expanding their menu and investing in their marketing. Those are all good signs that point to the company being healthy and that there are no troubles brewing... but then again, appearances can be deceiving. I... — read more 

I was at one of their stores the other day and the situation seems dire. I worked for Stride Rite for a few years and management was running things like the navy. Not this store though. What's happening to Stride Rite? This isn't the only store that... — read more 

O'Charley's is my #1 spot for me to engage shamelessly in my favorite comfort food of all time... fried foods of all kinds, of course. Chicken in particular... and goodness does O'Charley's deliver. These days though I'm disappointed with how pricey... — read more 

Is it just me or does Paciugo seem incredibly underrated these days? Their gelatos are really amazing but people usually just shrug them off. At the very least it seems that they do well in Florida, which is good. But it would be nice to see the love... — read more 

I love Panda Express. I know that for some unknown reason some Chinese restaurants don't give out fortune cookies anymore, which is unfortunate. I'm glad that Panda Express is still carrying out this sweet Chinese-American tradition. It's just cute... — read more
