Bankrupt: Linen ‘n Things

Linen 'N Things in Toms River
Linen ‘N Things Store in Toms River

Just saw on the news: Linen ‘N Things filed for bankruptcy. Good thing I was able to cash my rebate from them last month.

From the AP:

Linens ‘n Things, which operates about 589 retail stores in 47 states, is the latest retailer to be hit by the weakening retail environment as consumers cut back. Sharper Image Corp. and Lillian Vernon Corp. filed for bankruptcy protection in February

Any Jersey City resident going to a Linen ‘N Things store to buy something? As far as I know, stores offer discount or sale when they are closing.
