Anyway, the website, or what’s *left* of it (we’ll get to that), was supposed to be this online version of that brick-and-mortar experience. So, you’d find like, fancy dresses, shoes, the whole shebang, but for cheaper. Like, up to 65% off, they *claimed*. Sometimes you’d actually find good deals, sometimes it was like, whoa, who *buys* this stuff even at half price? You know?
I gotta be honest, I kinda miss it. Okay, I *definitely* miss it. I used to score some seriously sweet deals on bags there. And like, the hunt was part of the fun, right? Sifting through the… well, sometimes questionable inventory to find that hidden gem. It was like a treasure hunt, but with designer labels and slightly dented boxes.
Buuuut, here’s the thing. Century 21, the whole company, actually went bankrupt a while back. Like, *kaput*. So, you might be thinking, “Wait, then why are we even talking about c21stores.com?” Good question! I honestly don’t know! I guess it’s because people still talk about it, or *used* to, and maybe there’s a chance it’ll come back? Who knows, the retail world is weird.
You *can* apparently still check gift card balances, which seems kinda… sad? Like, holding onto a relic of a bygone era. I mean, if you *do* have a gift card, definitely check it, just in case.
