[QUOTE="judy, post: 317475, member: 965"]I find myself in a forced retirement stage. The shop owners of the shop I've been in are also retiring. I could go to another shop in the vicinity but would rather not travel the distance nor face another possible closing. Our area had quite a few large co-ops, so it brought a lot of people to the shops. We are the last of the rather large ones that hung on when others closed down. I've been running 1/2 price sales, and have donated much to a local church, and the SAL. The present owner told me I could stay as long as he will be there, without paying anymore rent. That might be for a few more months at best. The real estate has been sold. I plan to shop as usual....well not quite as usual, as I will now only be buying smalls to possibly sell on ebay....... All good things must come to an end......sadly.[/QUOTE]
