Jan...whew. I can type with ease not worrying that I will be graded. lol.
I THINK that Southern LifeStyles is closing because it is a traditional furniture store and those are not easily supported in todays economy. I see them closing all around me here in Cincinnati. Because of the economic situation that people find themselves in, the current furniture shoppers are mostly looking for bargains and discounts. Don't forget the developer owns the other furniture store that is selling not quite as expensive furniture. ......Something Express? in Spanish Springs. I am not at all surprised that these astute business people are responding to the market. The market is hanging onto their bucks a little more these days.
It may be the Disney model but my guess is that they are simply making a common sense decision.
Just my opinion. I could be wrong and frequently am. are.
