Before everyone gets upset about this news, it's a *specific* store that's closing, NOT all of them. Just one in Danville, IL.

That looks like it's just that one store, not the entire company. the store at the Village Mall will close the first part of May

But it's already June. I can't imagine the whole chain is closing, ours has Hiring signs in the windows. The one in Champaign just recently moved to a different location.

They are building a new one to open in Statesboro, GA in the fall. It is under construction now.

IMO, I think the company is safe, and it was just that one store that was in trouble...

I'm sure it's just that particular store. The article said the merchandise is moving to the new store in Peru (Illinois, not the country).

Phewww I teach Rubberstamping at the 4 Hobby Lobby's here in Tulsa, Ok. That would really stink if they Went Out of Business.

My sister lives in LaSalle, and she was so excited when the store opened in Peru. I wish we had one near me.

I'm so glad this is just the one store! The 2 we have locally in Northwest Indiana sure seem to do a thriving business! I know I do my part!

A new Hobby Lobby just opened this weekend 15 minutes from my house, and in the paper it's announced that another is about to be built 15 minutes in the other direction from my house. Such riches! To be able to stop in no matter which direction I'm driving! Previously, the closest was about 30 minutes away.

The HL closest to my house is updating their store. I am from Okla. and the owner is worth millions - surely we have nothing to worry about! Please don't leave us with just M's. (Sorry M but sometimes you are really lacking!)
