The signs were up, the remaining inventory was boxed up and the store was gutted. And so were the employees.
Linda's Hallmark Shop, which shared a plaza with Festival Foods and Kohl's on Washington Avenue, was slated to close in May to the disappointment of loyal customers and employees.
It was closed for some time â a little over a week, said Manager Liz Lewis â before it caught the attention of a new owner who purchased it and opened it back up May 7. Now, it's known as Jane's Hallmark Shop.
The store is celebrating Christmas in July with a wall of holiday ornaments already up. Starting Friday, the store is hosting an ornament event until July 18; buy more ornaments, get more rewards. For every five ornaments you purchase, you'll be able to draw a ticket from a fishbowl and get a chance to earn discounts or free prizes.
