Big changes are on the horizon for one of America’s most legendary department stores. That’s right—another 150 Macy’s locations are set to close their doors, leaving shoppers in Utah, California, and Nevada on edge, wondering if their neighborhood go-to spot for holiday gifts, fashion finds, and home essentials might be next on the chopping block.

WHICH STORE IS SHUTTING DOWN 150 LOCATIONS?

If the mention of the Thanksgiving Day Parade didn’t give it away, we’re talking about Macy’s. For decades, Macy’s has been a staple in shopping malls and city centers across the U.S., offering everything from trendy clothes to cookware. But like so many other retail giants—think Bed Bath & Beyond, Joann, and Big Lots!—Macy’s is feeling the pinch as online shopping takes over. The result? Fewer people walking through those iconic revolving doors.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOUR LOCAL MACY’S?

While the company hasn’t yet revealed which stores are slated to close, it’s safe to say that shoppers in California, Nevada, and Utah should brace themselves for the possibility of losing another location. Over the years, Utah has already bid farewell to a few Macy’s stores, and this latest announcement doesn’t exactly inspire confidence.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE PARADE?

Here’s a little good news: there’s no indication that Macy’s beloved traditions, like the Thanksgiving Day Parade or its Fourth of July fireworks show, are at risk. These events are as American as apple pie and seem to be sticking around despite the financial challenges facing the company.

So, if you’re someone who loves strolling the aisles of Macy’s, soaking up its timeless department store charm, now might be the time to show your support. Because at this rate, shopping in-person at Macy’s could soon become a thing of the past.
