None of the stores listed are book sellers, per se (unless you count Walmart). And, there are a variety of reasons that all of these companies are closing all of those stores. But, IMHO, all of these closures are just another portent of the continued decline in the number of the brick-and-mortar bookstores, if not their final demise . |
Wal-Mart isn't first and foremost a bookstore. I have a feeling there are a lot of things involved in the closings. I hope the one here won't be one of the 154 though. There are few dept. stores here. A wal-mart, a walgreens and a shop ko. I don't know about walgreens prices but shopko is sometimes expensive.
