The closing of the Papyrus chain in early 2020 took with it the firm's American Greetings store in Cleveland's Tower City Avenue Shops, as well as other Papyrus-named stores in Northeast Ohio. It's one of more than a dozen brands to close all or some of its stores since the year began.
Shopping center owners were challenged even before the pandemic and government lockdowns prompted massive temporary retailer closings.
Although stores are reopening as lockdown orders ease, the financial woes of retailers promise pain for retail property owners for months, if not years, to come.

Then, grocery stores located in towns where plastic bags are banned started telling customers not to bring reusable bags into the store, adding they would waive the usual fee for paper and plastic ones. On March 24, Gov. Janet Mills pushed the start date of the statewide ban on single-use plastic bag from April 22, the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, to Jan. 15, 2021.

West Seattle Blog… | GROCERY SHOPPING: Last Saturday before stay-home order expires
Less than a week before the about-to-expire Stay Home/Stay Healthy order kicked in, we started tracking local standalone grocery stores’ hours and policies – updating this list since March 18th. Every Saturday after that, starting March 21st, we’ve published a grocery-shopping update. After several stores/chains expanded their hours in the past few weeks, no changes are reported this week.
The Admiral Safeway now has a Drive Up and Go service, which allows you to place an order online and then pick it up at the store. They will bring it out to your car, so you don't have to enter the store. Someone else can pick it up for you, too.
Looters with baseball bats take over La Mesa Springs Shopping Center | cbs8.com
LA MESA, Calif. — Hundreds of looters were able to take over La Mesa Springs Shopping Center Saturday night as police officers were off protecting other parts of the city.
Protesters used to baseball bats to smash windows and gain entrance to the Vons grocery store, Sally Beauty Supply, Play It Again Sports, Postal Annex, Roundtable Pizza, and more.
White smoke filled the Vons, apparently from fireworks being set off inside the store, as looters filed in and then carried out cases of beer and other items.
