RIP Borders
They announced yesterday they'll be closing their remaining 400 stores; thus resulting in the loss of 11,000 jobs.
SAD!

I am so sad! Do you know if they will stay open online? DH has a Kobo that he bought last year and I am hoping he can still get the ebooks
I don't know, but I wondered about that too!

I found this article. It appears Kobo itself has been transitioning users to their online book store so it should have little to no impact on Kobo users.

Christen- ditto! I've always preferred Borders; although I get their coupon emails so maybe there's why.
Chelley- I'm curious how it will affect plaza's also! Several Border's I have visited are in large shopping areas.
Sigh...I have some great memories at Borders; lol. The one on Michigan Ave here (although it closed at the beginning of the year) when I was littled and we'd come to Chicago my dad always made us go there since it was so big. One in the burbs where we met my college room-mate for my sister to try on her prom dress she lent sister. Another burbs store where my dad and I got reading material before a trip to Guatemala.
My hometown store where it used to be cool to hang out in their coffee shop.
Geesh, I'm nostolgic

I definitely loved Borders for the coupons. I like B&N because I think the stores are pretty and I like to get my coffee and browse, but holy heck they are full price!! Anytime I'm in there I want to scream-- "Don't you people realize you can get the shiz on Amazon for half the price!!! SHEEP! You are all sheep!"
::steps off soapbox::
After I got my Kindle I buy almost everything from Amazon - very, very few books are bought in hard copies anymore.
Exactly this. I have a sad obsession with Amazon. But I will say that I still shopped at borders since they always had cute little things in there. Oh and Seattle's Best Coffee. I'll miss that too
