in 1989, 1,300 stores were operated by the mccrory company. however, as the decade turned, its fortunes decreased, and by 1992 it filed for bankruptcy. the changing retail landscape including the migrating of shoppers from the inner cities to the influx of superstores such as target and wal-mart sealed the fate of the once mighty five and ten. several rounds of store closures followed, with one of the biggest coming in 1997 when mccrory's shuttered 300 of its last 460 stores. the company also converted some stores to their dollar zone format of dollar store, but these closed in early 2002. in december 2001, mccrory stores announced the remaining mccrory's, tg&y, g. c. murphy and j.j. newberry stores it was operating would begin liquidating and in february 2002 the company ceased operation.
