According to Milwaukee Business Journal, 66 of those stores have already sold all of their merchandise and closed down. In total, the company has liquidated more than 95 percent of inventory, amounting to about $2.2 billion worth of merchandise.

The liquidation sales are expected to be complete by the end of the week.
