Macy’s will close roughly 125 stores, a fifth of its locations, over the next three years.

After previously announcing that it would close 298 locations, Macy's said Tuesday that it will now shutter nearly 100 more.

“We are making deep cuts that impact every area of our business,'' Macy's CEO Jeff Gennette said Wednesday during the retailer's Investors Day. "These changes are painful but they are necessary.''

5. Macy's is my favorite clothing store.

They have some high end lines and plenty of moderately-priced lines as well. And yes, they have great sales, too!

6. When you have a CEO who

treats his employees like total crap,well,look no further than Sears. When Federated cobbled together some eight or ten major Retailers,it was all about working the Tax Code.

10. I see from the list that the one closest to me is closing. I'm not too

surprised. I was there on the Saturday before Christmas, and there were very few customers on what I thought would have been a busy shopping day. I thought at the time that if that was how empty it was during the holiday rush, they couldn't stay afloat. Sorry to see stores closing and employees losing their jobs.

11. This awesome economy is just not hitting most people's pocketbooks

I know I spent far less for Christmas than years past.
