(WDNews) – Dirt Cheap, the discount retail chain known for offering major brand returns and excess inventory, will soon close all of its stores. Channel Control Merchants, the parent company of Dirt Cheap and Bargain Hunt, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Thursday, according to court documents.
With over 60 locations spread across several states, including Alabama, Mississippi, and Georgia, Dirt Cheap is starting to advertise “store closing sales.” Reports suggest all stores are expected to shut their doors by the end of the year, with a final court hearing scheduled for Nov. 7.
The closures affect the discount retail stores in the Southeast but are unrelated to Dirt Cheap liquor stores in Missouri, which are operated by Wallis Companies. A spokesperson confirmed those liquor stores will remain open.
