One week ago today Bergner's at the CherryVale Mall closed its doors for good...or did they?

Y'all, I am so confused, excited and mad over the massive tease I just saw on Bergner's website...

Seriously?!? Was my family's Christmas just saved?

I cannot wait weeks for Bergner's to give me the answers, so I went sleuthing for them on my own and found...nothing.

Well, not exactly nothing, but what I did find isn't helping much to ease my impatience.

25News in Peoria has posted this statement from Great American Group, the company handling the liquidation of all of Bon-Ton Stores;

The company’s intellectual property is in the process of being sold. We cannot speak to the purchaser’s future plans with the company. All inquiries should be referred to the buyer which will be disclosed once the transaction is closed"

Here's one more piece of info that I find quite interesting...25News says, "The sites are still registered to Bon-Ton Stores, Inc."

Hmmmm.

Will Bergner's soon be an online-only retailer, or will the huge void at the CherryVale Mall not be empty for long?
