Tuesday Morning on Greenback Lane, located next to Sam's Club near city hall, will be closing with a March 30 liquidation date.
CITRUS HEIGHTS, CA (MPG) - Tuesday Morning, a popular off-price retailer, will close its only Citrus Heights store, located in the Regency Shopping Center at 7255 Greenback Lane near Citrus Heights City Hall, on Thursday, March 30th.
The Dallas-based retailer is consolidating as part of its bankruptcy filing on Tuesday, February 14th. The company currently operates 487 stores in 40 states. Its planned closures include all remaining Tuesday Morning sites in the Sacramento area, including Folsom and Roseville.
Tuesday Morning relocated to the Regency Shopping Center as an anchor tenant in July 2019 from the Sunrise Village shopping center near the corner of Sunrise Boulevard and Uplands Avenue. The store is located adjacent to the Sam’s Club warehouse store and the Pacific Coast Foods supermarket.
The Dallas-based retailer has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division.
Edwin, a store manager in the Citrus Heights location, who gave just his first name, said he had been with Tuesday Morning for over 13 years, and was a part of the management team that opened the store on Greenback Lane when it moved from its former location in Sunrise Village.
The closure will impact between 10 to 12 full and part-time employees, he said. He referred all questions to the Tuesday Morning corporate office in Dallas, Texas for further comment.
Store merchandise is now marked down by 10 percent off regular ticketed price, and that discount percentage will increase as the store reaches its final liquidation date. All sales are final.
Customers busily browsed and searched for bargains up and down store aisles under a banner sign reading “Brands you love, prices you can’t believe.”
With an ever-changing assortment of top-quality and unique items, Tuesday Morning in the Regency Shopping Center, has been a one-of-a-kind source in Citrus Heights for home fashions and the finest home basics from around the globe which has had its customers in their words, coming back again and again.
Store merchandise typically includes gourmet and specialty foods, children’s toys, kitchenware, bath and bedding, furniture and home décor. Special seasonal merchandise for spring gardening and the upcoming Easter holiday was on display.
A part-time cashier, who retired from a 30-year retail career with JC Penney, now is a grandmother, said she started work at the Citrus Heights Tuesday Morning store two years ago.
“I’ll honestly miss the so many of our regular customers. It’s difficult to see this store close, and it was unexpected,” she said. “It’s also going to be tough for many of my co-workers here who will now be out of work.”
Customers generally described the retail store’s pending closure as a “loss for the people of Citrus Heights, who prefer in-person retail shopping.”
Tuesday Morning at 7255 Greenback Lane in Citrus Heights is open Monday through Saturday from 10 am to 7 pm and Sunday from 11 am to 6 pm. Call (916) 536-9877 for store hours and more information.
