View Single Post - Circuit City to Close Remaining Stores

While this is nothing in terms of thousands of people losing their jobs... I was annoyed to learn last week that huge ad networks continued to let Circuit City place banner ads ON CREDIT even after declaring bankruptcy. Needless to say, the ad networks aren't going to eat the loss, so publishers have to. In the end it means money gets sucked back out of the Bigbruin account. Not a huge deal, but multiply that over thousands of sites and it seems like someone should have seen it coming and prevented it.

Plus... Our local mall is starting to look pretty sad with Circuit City and Linens and Things closing, plus other stores like Radio Shack just bailing out.
