At this time of year, when so many of us are in shopping mode, I found myself looking back at what was, in its time, Hannibal's prime shopping experience.
Pandemic, supply chain shortages and online sales notwithstanding, there are a lot of shoppers who still have Black Friday, November 26 marked with a big red circle on their calendars.
Construction has started for the new Slumberland store in the Quincy Mall. The former JC Penney building is being remolded to make way for the new furniture store.
Last month, JC Penney announced that they would be closing 138 stores this year. Today, JC Penney corporate's official announcement was released. Here's who didn't make the cut.
This morning I saw a news report on holiday shopping. It mentioned that some Quincy Mall business owners are a little concerned about the upcoming season, now that JC Penney is no longer an anchor store at the mall.
