Christmas Tree Shops Could Be Closing In Delaware

The run of stores declaring bankruptcy in the past week keeps on going.

The latest with the intention of declaring bankruptcy is The Christmas Tree Shops.

The Wall Street journal is reporting that The Christmas Tree Shops has hired a law firm to prepare the necessary steps in declaring Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

The Christmas Tree Shops recently rebranded as CTS in hopes to attract new consumers. Th rebrand was meant to get the message across that they sold more than Christmas goods.

“Last year it was reported that the company would be rebranded as “CTS” because people outside of New England believed they only sold Christmas trees. The CEO said at the time there were plans to open another 15 stores with the new CTS name” CBS reports.

There is still optimism that the brick and mortar Christmas Tree Shops stores could remain open after the bankruptcy filing.

CBS reports that The Christmas Tree Shops could restructure their debt and only close a small number of stores.

The Christmas Tree Shops currently operates stores in Delaware at 5450 Brandywine Parkway Wilmington, DE 19803 and at 19563 Coastal Highway #3 Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971.

“Christmas Tree Shops is an American chain of specialty retail stores headquartered in Middleboro, Massachusetts . As of 2023, the chain operates 82 stores in 20 U.S. states” according to their Wikipedia page.

The Christmas Tree Shops was owned by Bed Bath & Beyond up until 2020.

In the past month Bed Bath & Beyond has also filed for bankruptcy and announced it would be closing the remainder of its operating stores.

Bed Bath & Beyond shuttered a Wilmington location at the beginning of the year.

The store at Brandywine Town Center, 1020 Brandywine Parkway closed its doors a few months ago.

The company originally announced it would shutter a total of 354 Bed Bath & Beyond stores, 51 Harmon health and beauty stores, and 11 BuyBuy Baby stores this past February.

Delaware Residents Could Earn Over $100k At These 5 Remote Jobs

Do you work from home? Do you feel like you are the only one you know going into the office?

That could change with moving to a career that is fully remote!

Since the pandemic and COVID-19 office culture has changed drastically. Some people are in office, others work a hybrid schedule, tons are working right from their kitchen table!

Remote workers can easily wear sweatpants all day long, and no one would know! (This is my favorite reason to go remote.)

Some remote jobs do however have restrictions on the are you can live AND work remotely.

According to Small Business Playbook “most remote jobs have geographic requirements, whether its a specific country, state, or city, mainly due to state and federal regulations that dictate where companies can hire people and do business.”

FlexJobs put together a list of the most in-demand remote jobs where some can earn over $100k.

“Although marketing, online content, and writing secured the top placement for work-from-anywhere career categories, there was strong growth in gaming, entertainment, and media during the first part of 2023” FlexJobs reports.

Delaware Residents Could Earn Over $100k At These 5 Remote Jobs:

 

  • Chinese Translator

    A quick check of Indeed will show many Chinese Translator jobs. Seems to be that most of these positions are helping people translate over zoom or via phone call. The postings say no experience translating is necessary and they will train you…but you do need to be fluent in the language already.

  • Copywriter

    LinkedIn explains a copywriter as “a member of the creative team, the copywriter will write and edit content for a variety of projects (including print, web, mobile, video, and social media), working closely with the account and design teams to brainstorm ideas, develop concepts, and articulate messaging.”

     

  • Customer Success Manager

    This career has been all over Tik Tok and Twitter recently. I have noticed numerous people shifting their career to this. But, what does a Customer Success Manager do?

    According to ZenDesk “A customer success managers (CSM) supports your customers as they transition from sales prospects to active users of your products. They’re focused on customer loyalty and building close long-term client relationships, and often stay with the same customers as long as they continue to work with your business.”

  • Technical Writer

    Technical writers essentially write all those instructions we follow when buying a new product. They also write how-to’s, journal articles, and other documents.

  • Social Media Manager

    If you are always on Instagram and Facebook posting…you might as well try and monetize it.

    Google will show that the starting salary for a remote Social Media Manager in Delaware is $62k. But it seems like that salary could increase pretty quickly AND it can all be done remotely.
