New York CNN —Bob’s Stores, a discount store located in northeast America, is shutting down after seven decades in business. “We regret that our financial position necessitated the liquidation of Bob’s Stores,” Dave Barton, president of Bob’s Stores, said in a press release. All locations are offering steep discounts on everything the company sells, ranging from shoes to clothing. In 2022, Bob’s Stores was sold to GoDigital Media Group. Bob’s joins a growing number of retail bankruptcies in 2024, spurred from a slowdown in consumer spending and rising inflation.
