I guess I have not shopped there much lately either, but it was a regular stop for me in the mid to late '80s. The local mall store was down to a few racks of pants, dresses, and blouses. The store fixtures and mannequins were for sale, along with used office supplies but they were marked up to unreasonable prices so they could offer 80% off. $20 for a dinged up three-hole puncher?</p> <p>I found a couple tops to use my credit on. Nothing that will last more than a season or two, and I may have to restitch the seams. But these are much 'wilder' than my usual solid color tops, so a fun end to an era. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-limited-stores-are-closing#post-1764493 Sun, 01 Jan 2017 13:33:08 +0000 Staysfit 1764493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't shopped at the Limited since High School. I'm not sure they have one near here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-limited-stores-are-closing#post-1764467 Sun, 01 Jan 2017 09:01:59 +0000 Gigi 1764467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's too bad. They were one of the few stores to offer petite sizes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-limited-stores-are-closing#post-1764428 Sun, 01 Jan 2017 06:10:49 +0000 BrieN 1764428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's too bad. I have purchased three items there in the last few months. I know a lot of their items are fabricated from lower cost material, but for the fall/winter season, I actually appreciate that they don't sell a lot of wool/cashmere (which is itchy for me). &nbsp;I am not surprised though; the last time I shopped there the merchandise was 70% off -- even the newest items.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-limited-stores-are-closing#post-1764403 Sun, 01 Jan 2017 02:54:19 +0000 rachylou 1764403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh how sad. I haven't lived near a Limited for a long time now, but I enjoyed going in when I did. It was on my circuit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-limited-stores-are-closing#post-1764401 Sun, 01 Jan 2017 02:43:00 +0000 elpgal 1764401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am bummed about this. I have had their Drew pants in every size from 4 to 12. I hope Express steps up their game to absorb the Limited clientele. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-limited-stores-are-closing#post-1764273 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 16:39:05 +0000 Angie 1764273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sad.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-limited-stores-are-closing#post-1764224 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 14:39:56 +0000 Laurinda 1764224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div></p> <p> <div><br /> <div></p> <p> </div><br /> </div><br /> </div><div><div><br /> </div><div><div><div>Heads up to use any gift certificates!</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.tampabay.com/news/business/retail/the-limited-stores-are-closing-nationwide-and-in-tampa-bay/2307623">The Limited stores are closing nationwide and in Tampa Bay<br /> </a></div></div></div></div> </p> <p><i>The local stores have been selling off merchandise at highly<br /> discounted rates in recent weeks to purge what's left of their<br /> inventory. </i></p> <i><br /> </i> <p><i>The brand is expected to begin to liquidate its stores soon.
