Say it ain't so Macy's So it ain't so. The greatest department store in history of man kind going down. The economy really is in the crapper if this is happening. Lets quit sending money over seas, pull our troops home and get this country built back up the way it should be. Who's with me, hopefully everyone.
As the Journal previewed Wednesday night, Macy’s this morning announced the closing of 11 stores, a move that came after a rough holiday season. Macy’s also said Thursday that same-store sales for December fell 4%, amid what it called “the most challenging economic environment in memory.” Here’s the list of the store locations Macy’s is closing:
