It's a pretty good bet that they will....it's never made money, and it's in a lousy location right next to a crappy Toy's R Us. What's really sad is that they had a chance to steal the old Kmart location from Best Buy had they been a little quicker. As I understand it, when the old Kmart location was closed and the owner was looking to split the location and have 2 stores take up the old space they approached Hobby Lobby and Circuit City. Hobby Lobby jumped at the chance and CC hesitated. That's when Best Buy jumped in and stole it away.
