Thanks for your comment Linda. Quite honestly I have not found any company that compares in terms of quality for cotton items like CG used to make. The current trend is cheap and easy to produce unfortunately and it is not made to last many years. I am hoping a Canadian company will step up soon and fill in this empty space CG has left behind.

Like many of you, I loved to shop at CG+ and I’m wondering where I can now get good quality casual clothing. Imo, what happened to CG was that they were making clothing for plus sizes in styles suitable for smaller gals and they turned their backs on the tried and true + styles. When I started shopping there, they had: winter fleece vests that came down under the touche (kept it warm); lovely cotton v-neck nighties; longer t-shirts that covered a multitude of sins; long sleeved sweat pant type tops; bean-bag pants; etc. Everything was good quality and I’m still wearing many of their pieces today. Time is running out tho and I do need to start replacing my clothing. Anyone have any ideas about where to shop now?

Park Royal, West Vancouver , was the last Cotton Ginny location in BC and closed recently. I think the stores stayed open until their leases ran out. Their plus sizes were a true fit, and I liked most of their clothes, which lasted a long time because of their quality. I’m sorry to hear about all the gift cards that people can’t use, and the unpaid employees. My daughter got the first taste of not being paid for her paper route when a local paper went under a number of years ago. She was only ten at the time. Unpaid employees of a bankruptcy are usually last to be paid, if at all, as we discovered during that situation. They are known as “unsecured creditors.” Good luck to them.

i know it is bs but ya know what ealse is bs them not paying you and you have to fight for 8 months to get money you have worked for that is bs in my books if they dident take care about the people who worked for them they sure as hell dident care about the people buying stuff. i would love to know where all the money went how they got this far.

Hey ladies

I happened to be in London last week and I CLEANED UP in CG PLUS. Eveything was 80% off — I bought a full bag of clothes for $56. Most items were $6 and $8. I would have filled up a suitcase if I had one. It was amazing!!! Google White Oaks Mall, London.

Cotton Ginny in Lindsay Ontario is closed. Went to go buy shorts today and it’s gone. I asked them before Christmas if they were going to close, they had moved to a new location in the mall and taken over another store’s fixtures and signage. It was not at all branded “Cotton Ginny” it looked terrible and temporary. They assured me, business as usual. Darn it. It’s the only place I liked to buy shorts. BTW Joe Fresh t shirts are onlyy $5 and come in an xxl.
