Disney stores might be sold back to disney

I just saw this on another site... With this link:Children's Place to exit Disney Stores - Forbes.com.


They were saying that some stores might close... Very interesting!

Hmm, seriously. If it was sold back to the Disney company I think I would consider a part-time job there! I LOVE the store at our local mall!

Re: Disney stores might be sold back to disney

I heard of this last year and got all excited, but a cm I know that works at our mall store, didn't know a thing about it. I'll have to ask her again the next time I see her. I know she'd be happy to have her "disney perks" back again.

Pretty much the same things all cm get. Discounts on merchandise, tickets and they got really nice discounts on their rooms at the Disney Resorts. Because she's a single mom of 3, she can no longer afford to go to wdw. Those perks really helped her out.

That would be great! Maybe they'd bring back some more grown up merchandise too:)

I agree! I hope they would introduce more "grown up" merchandise again I used to shop there a lot more in the past, but they seem to have done away with most of the merchandise that I would like. The PT job thing might be something to consider for the perks too!

Re: Disney stores might be sold back to disney

I know I am going against the grain here, but I like the disney stores as is...the clothes are more reasonable in price and the style is WAYYYY better.
