I am disappointed, to say the least. One of my very favorite stores for fun jewelry and a fun shopping experience.

Not too surprised.  There is a big CC's here in Chicago in the North Bridge mall.  I've never been in it and when I pass by there seems to be only a handful of people in it.  

Would expect that this will be one of the stores to close.

Whenever we visit Chicago we make a point of going into the Charming Charlie store.  It’s fun to visit with great prices. I like how the store is laid out with the same colors grouped together. We don’t have anything like it in our area.

I've always liked CC's. You can get very cute gifts there, without breaking the bank. In the Northeast, the store is quite popular and often busy with long lines. I hope they don't close the stores here.

Oh jeez...I love that store

I like that store! There are always people in the one where I shop.

Such a cute store, that I just went into for the 1st time last month. Very reasonably priced items, and cute things for gifts as well. Hope they don't close the one nearest me.....

The store nearest me is always pretty crowded when I'm in it, although I'm not in it that often.

Whether people are actually buying or not, I don't know.

The one near me is already closed, I saw a truck loading up the tables and racks the other night.

There's an outlet store at the outlet mall on the other side of town.    

It was a treat when it first opened but the new wore off quickly for me.

I'd rather spend a little and get real sterling.    T J Maxx is great for jewelry.
