Good evening!

You know it’s a wild time when gyms are closing, but Chuck E. Cheese is thriving.

Here are the 7 things you missed today:

It’s not looking good for affordable gyms. Despite being owned by luxury gym chain Equinox, budget gym chain Blink Fitness filed for bankruptcy and said it may close some of its 101 clubs. The closure shows the lingering impact of the pandemic on the fitness industry, which caused 25% of U.S. gyms and studios to permanently close.

6.  🏬 Macy’s Closures Will Set Off Wave of Change

Macy’s announced back in February that it was planning to close about 150 of its stores by early 2027, signaling the downsizing of department stores. While the retailer still hasn’t revealed which locations will close, mall owners are starting to get eager for the prime real estate to make way for new construction.

Why subscribe to Netflix when you can subscribe to Chuck E. Cheese?
