Basket Reboot [Full]

As a late start to the year, this post will be dedicated to shopping baskets the author has photographed over the years. Some of these you might recognize from other posts, while others have never been posted here before. Like many of the posts on Retail Regents Carts, this post will be updated on an as-needed basis, as well as understanding some of the disclaimers over there as this is an archive going back to 2018.

The Jo-Ann Store Closures of 2025 - The Massachusetts Locations

A store in the Holyoke Shopping Center in Holyoke previously closed on January 12, 2025. No other photos are available for this set.

It is very rare to have two posts in one day, but since stores in a state other than New York have been documented, this will be a companion post to The Jo-Ann Store Closures of 2024 - The New York Locations.

As part of Jo-Ann's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing filed on January 15th, they have announced the closure of hundreds of stores nationwide. In Massachusetts, 19 stores (as of February 13, 2025) are scheduled to close. This is part of a nationwide store closure wave that currently totals 500 stores as of this writing, which can officially be seen here.

Here is a list of closures in the state of Massachusetts. As this is an ongoing story, more locations will be added as future closings are announced.

UPDATE: As of 2/24/2025, all locations are now closing, with all of their assets being sold off. All Massachusetts locations that are still operating will be listed in dark green.
