Last days of Virgin Megastore
Posted by: Mona
Tomorrow will be the last day for Virgin Megastore at Marina Mall since we all know that they’re closing down end of January. The clearance sale had been going on for a while and I doubt that there’s anything left from what we can see according to BananaQ8. But if anyone’s interested, go take a final look and see what’s up for grabs.
The store was the best and coolest in its early days when it had first opened in Kuwait. I loved the Virgin Cafe they used to have before, even the coffee shop on the 2nd floor was good enough until they closed down both of them. They even had an acoustic rock concert in store back in 2003. Sadly with the all the strict rules and censorship it lost it’s charm and was hardly inviting. But it would still be sad to see it closed down, Marina Mall will be different without it.
What we really need is some good bookstores now. Borders, Chapters, Foyles anyone?
