There have been a rash of bank closings over the past few weeks and that now includes a national chain with many locations in Illinois that has closed dozens of branches elsewhere.
It must be a bad year for a lot of national chains. Just like Walmart and David's Bridal, Best Buy just announced a ton of store closures and Illinois made the list.
As Joe Dredge pointed out in his post yesterday, the last remaining Sears store in Illinois is closing. Their Schaumberg store, Illinois' last open Sears, is done in November.
