    don't forget Adams baby clothing, although the only shop left that I knew of was in the Park Centre

    Adams stores in Ballymena and Antrim are still open, so far. as are Barretts and Priceless.
    Stores that have closed in my area are:

    Supercuts
    D2
    Bag Heaven
    Woolworths
    Petroleum
    Qube


    I think there are a few more who are in the process of closing or who will relocate.

    Evans has closed its branch in the Tower Centre and Internacionale have moved out of the there now too. There won't be anything left in there at this rate!

    Apparently the lease was up and as they had the other store they decided not to renew it.

    I'm really shocked to read about Street Life in Connswater. :eek: There is nothing left in Connswater and I have to say that recently I'm finding that Forestside is a lot busier than usual so people are maybe flocking there instead.

    Really sad to hear about Edco too.

    My local Pound Shop has closed (Ballymoney). Not because it wasn't profitable because it was but the landlord (allegedly) put the rent up to a point where it just wasn't worth their while trading any longer. Duh :confused:

    Can I add Roast coffee shop at the corner of Royal Avenue and Lower North Street? It closed at Christmas and never reopened. Wonder is the one on the Lisburn Road still going?
