That announcement included the Bob's locations in Southington and Hamden, CT.

According to the announcement, "Bob's Stores was unable to secure the finances needed to maintain operations."

The store website is currently under construction, with a notice that says it plans on offering an online shopping option in the future.

The company says gift cards and merchandise credits will be honored through close of business on July 14, 2024.

Going out of business sales are now underway for all stores that are still open, with July 14 listed as the final day of operation.
