Linens and Things going out of business !

15 years ago

Went on their website tonight trying to find some tiered dessert stands and found out they're going out of business.You can't use any gift cards you may have,but they have a lot of merchandise at 80 percent off ! Didn't find the dessert stands though :Found some damask tablecloths in there for less than $2.00 !

Goodness, it is sad to hear that we are losing another store! Guess it's a chance for all of us to get some bargains tho. Thanks for the heads up, Susan, and good luck finding the tiered stands you wanted. Luvs

Ours closed just before Christmas. If you go to shop their "sales", know your prices on things from other stores first!!! Many, many things that were supposed to be 50-70% off were only what sale prices have been for over six months around here. We did get a couple of good deals, but most were not 50-70% off, as stated, in my opinion. We always preferred best buy. Most of the time, looking at the sale ads and prices in store, you got more product for a better price at best buy. No, I did not/do not work for either store. Tami

@dd50, that's not true. I have a receipt for a Sonic Scrubber I purchased there on 10/11/8 - full price was 14.99 but I had a coupon so got $3 off. I also purchased the additional package of brushes - regular price was 9.99. On 10/23/08, I purchased another Sonic Scrubber and set of additional brushes. The receipt shows the Sonic Scrubber at a regular price of 14.99 minus the $1.50 discount. The brushes show the regular price at 9.99 with a $1 discount.

Did you all see on the news about how the "Liquidation sales", really work? It looks as though the 50%- 75% etc, are the Linens and things prices. When the store turns the liquidation process over to the liquidators, they then are going by the liqidators prices, which are much higher. So, 50% off of a price, should say, which price they started at, but they don't. New price tags were stuck over old price tags. The new prices were way over the orignal, that he store owners used. I won't waste my time trying to go through things, only to pay possibly more on "sale" than it was to begin with! Buyer beware, I guess.

I absolutely hate that microfiber stuff! Just hate it! One poster mentioned a linen retail venue. Was it maybe, Linens and Things, that is being remembered? They were a pretty good little store and I was sad to see them go away as they did quite a long time ago. There also was a kitchen supply store that I cannot remember the name of that was in business at about ehe same time as Linens and Things that seemed to have gone under about the same time. I miss those old fashioned stores. They used to be located in some of the strip shopping centers. I hate having to by online for so many things. It certainly helps me to NOT buy too many things. For me, it lead to me buying less, not more.

I thought all the stores had already closed. The one here has been closed since fall. I'm hearing World Market Imports is next.

It's a sad situation watching stores that have been around for at least 10 years, close. Not only is it the economy, it's the online shopping more people are doing. Antique shops/malls have also been hit because of ebay. Times are tough!

Oh, I am really sad to hear about the World Market. I love their store - they have such unique things there. They have the coolest food stuff and wine too for much less than the other stores.

Our Linen's and Things store is closed now too. Were open up til around Oct. or Nov.

Soon we'll be down to just a few stores to shop at, and not much choice either.

I know allot of you enjoy shopping online, but I much prefer being able to see and touch the item before I buy--and I hate to have to pay shipping charges on top of the price of the item! I really do feel bad for the little antique shops, I'm afraid we are going to lose all these cute little places and be left with nothing but BB&B and C&B type stores--nothing wrong with those, but the little antique shops add such a unique flavor to the shopping choices. Nothing like hitting the antique shops for a girl's day out! Luvs

Ours closed last summer. Now the Cost Plus World Market is closing in our town. They presently have 30% off on some things.

We have a LNT one town away that just went out of business. It's right next to an Expo that just announce that it too, will be going out of business.

I'll miss LNT, but there's a Bed, Bath and Beyond very close to where LNT was so I can still go there ;)
