Claire’s, the go-to spot for ear piercings and fun jewelry, is shutting down three Iowa locations as part of a nationwide wave of nearly 300 closures. Stores in Ames, Des Moines, and West Des Moines are on the chopping block, but seven others across Iowa will stay open for now. The company says if it can’t find a buyer, even more closures could be coming. For many, Claire’s is a nostalgic mall staple—how do you feel about these changes? Is your local store on the list? #Business #LocalBusiness #Iowa
