Some
news from here in Canada — Sears Canada has been slowly closing its
doors for the past few months, laying off employees, shutting down
stores, restructuring their business plans to avoid bankruptcy. And just
today, it received permission from the courts to liquidate all assets,
starting October 19.
This means that there won’t be any new Newberry dolls for this Christmas season—but the current ones should be going on
sale very soon as they try to clear out the remaining stock.
We’re
a little disappointed that we won’t be able to get any of our beloved
Newberry accessories/dolls this Christmas—but who knows, I might be able
to pick up some of the things we’re missing at a good price!

That's sad! I wonder how that will affect US Sears Newberry stock. It's been slowly trickling this way for a couple years.
ReplyDeleteNo idea. But, when I did a search for new Newberry dolls online, a US Sears result came up, and it looked like there are a few new things available for the US Christmas line--dolls with new outfits, a bakery shop (which is pretty much the same as the pizza/cafe, just different colours and accessories), etc.
