You might remember Toys R Us declared bankruptcy last September and we've been waiting to see if the Portage store would be one of the 6 to be closed in Michigan.  If so, this would continue the trend of store after store closing along the Westnedge corridor and Crossroads Mall.  I realize the way we buy things is changing and have accepted it.  What I worry about is when stores close, will something we want to take its place?

Luckily, at least for now, the Portage location will remain open.  The stores that will close in Michigan are in Grand Rapids, Muskegon, Lansing, Traverse City and 2 in Ann Arbor.  Get the full story by clicking HERE.

The Kalamazoo area Toys R Us had been rumored to close in the past.
