It’s a pretty sad week for book lovers like me who have just found out that 200 Borders Book Stores in 35 states (including Puerto Rico) will be closing in April due to the company going bankrupt.
On the other hand, it’s a very exciting opportunity for us book lovers, as starting tomorrow, discounts from 20% to 40% with limited exceptions will be offered on all merchandise at every closing location. There will also be numerous price reductions on music albums, DVDs, calendars, posters, puzzles and arts and crafts items.
I am particularly bummed about the Borders stores in Freehold, NJ, Manhattan, NY, King of Prussia, PA, Los Angeles, CA on Santa Monica Blvd, and San Diego, CA in the Gaslamp Quarter.
January 31st wasn’t that long ago…so which one you guys are getting me a belated birthday gift card?
