FORTUNOFF....UPDATE AT THE BOTTOM

Anyone who has store credit at Fortunoff, I HIGHLY suggest you use it ASAP...

They are up for sale but it looks like it will become a liquidation store, kinda like what linens and things did..

They are not allowing anyone to use their credit cards, or purchase gift cards...

I dunno, I don't think it sounds very good, so I'm going ASAP to use up my credit

Oh wow.. i keep hearing of this,.. since last year though. Is it speculation? Or is there an actual source?

---

Actual source and I called this morning to find out what the deal was.

No no no... You can use the gift card you HAVE but CANNOT purchase a new one

Ah ok...I misread that. Thanks.

This makes me so unbelievably sad to think that Fortunoff is going to be liquidated like that....I mean, I grew up with Fortunoff as THE place to go for bridal registry and everything else....

Girls update...

I went there last night and its NOT looking good. Not 1 employee asked me if I needed help with anything and they were all sitting around talking. No joke! If anyone has gift cards or anything from there, I suggest you go like NOW...

Thanks so much for the info. I think I must be living in a bubble that I didn't know about this...

A couple of weeks ago we bought patio furniture (for the patio we don't have yet...ha...) there, thinking that in the future we could add on (that stuff is expensive!!) Now I'm wondering if it won't be there anymore....and if I can convince DH that there will be super sales and we need to get it now!!

I'm not sure, but I would call and ask. I think you have a receipt you can get what you paid for it back, otherwise probably credit...
