Swoozie’s going out of business

Atlanta Swoozie’s, which has filed for Chapter 11, is closings its 43 locations.

The stores are offering discounts of up to 30% off its stationery, greeting cards, invitations, gift-wrap, Easter decor, giftware, tabletop items, handbags, jewelry and more.

Swoozie’s filed for bankruptcy protection on March 2, citing the impact of the recession and the underperformance of its 13 stores in the Northeast.
