    I think there were 15 closures out of the 58 UK stores, but that might have changed in the last few weeks.

    Agree- and overpriced- TK maxx would get what they had the next year- and then charge less! And if you were prepared to look, the internet often could better thier prices by over 30% when you included delivery!
