Closings

I don't know the status for sure, but I know the one by the mall has "closed" and maybe the others. There's a big thing going on nationally where the company-owned stores are getting closed and reopened as franchise stores. I think at least 60 Indiana stores are involved, and the process is usually very sketchy, like stores closing overnight, or suddenly closing to be "remodeled" and everyone fired. So stay tuned I guess on what happens in Bloomington. --Jkonrath (talk) 18:38, 10 May 2019 (EDT)

Looks like only the Liberty Drive location survived... --Jkonrath (talk) 15:22, 1 September 2021 (EDT)

Also, they defaulted on a bunch of junk bond debt, their new franchise model fell apart, and COVID happened, so the last location is probably not long for this world. --Jkonrath (talk) 15:28, 1 September 2021 (EDT)
