Happy shopping!

After shutting down both the Portland and San Diego locations in May, the luxury department store has decided to close the Saks in Southampton as well as their Off 5TH in Reno.

Store closing decisions are difficult ones to make, but the planned closing of these two locations is consistent with our strategy of deploying our resources in productive stores and closing underperforming stores, when feasible.

Wonder which stores are next???

Bad news for American Eagle.

The company is set to close 50 to 100 stores over the new few years.

Currently they have 934 stores open. And that’s after closing 20 of their stores already over the past year.

Turns out their latest earnings report show a loss of 66%.

Ouch!

And to cut loses, they’re also planning on closing its Martin + Osa division.

While American Eagle is hoping that closing those stores will increase their profits, many will soon be out of their jobs.

Are U an American Eagle shopper? Let's hope they don't close a store near U.

It's been a rough year for Abercrombie & Fitch.

After being infested with bedbugs and cutting prices to keep up with competitors the preppy retailer will be closing 60 stores by the end of the year and 50 more by 2012.

Abercrombie said the majority of the closures are due to expired leases, but we're sure having crappy sales didn't help either.
