"All this talk of WB closing down made me head for our store in 
Bluewater ( a mall in Kent which is supposed to be the biggest in 
Europe).  I assumed that they were closing down, as the one on Regent 
Street in Central London has done so...So imagine my surprise when I 
realise they have extended their range of products, the items are no 
longer on sale, and the sales assistant  tells me that all the big 
stores have been closing down because WB have decided to open smaller 
shops in more places instead - in the UK at least.  I consoled myself 
with the lack of bargains by buying the table clock (Harry with 
Hedwig at Platform 9 and 3/4, to add to my Sorting Hat bookends."

--All I know is that the sign at the register of my closest WB store 
said that due to the AOL/Timewarner merger all WB stores would close 
as of June 27th. I'm still wondering *why*, because they seem to be 
doing quite well. Sorry you couldn't get any on sale merchandise.

I don't know if I'll be back there before they close, but if anybody 
really wants some merchandise that they can't seem to find e-mail me 
off list and I'll see if I can get it.

I don't know if it was in this message and I deleted it or in another 
one, but someone mentioned the Every Flavour Beans. Well they have 
been pretty hard to find around here. I've gotten two bags and one 
was free (a B&N promotion) and the other was 1/2 off because the 
store I got it from was going out of business (Natural Wonders). They 
retail for $7, and theres no way I'm that much. I think they're fun, 
but I never could get any of my friends to try them...
