A MUCH-loved clothing store has launched a huge closing down sale ahead of shutting its doors for good.
Infinity & Co Boutique, a beloved independent clothing and jewellery store in Harrogate, is preparing to close its doors to shoppers.
As a result, shoppers have the chance to snap up some fantastic bargains.
The store has launched a massive closing down sale, with all jewellery now priced at just £10 – a deal the retailer is actively promoting on social media.
Commenting on the closure, the store’s owner shared a heartfelt message on Facebook, saying: “I want to express my sincere gratitude for your wonderful support over the years.
“I’ve met so many amazing people, shared laughter and tears, and even received plenty of menopause advice!
“Most importantly, I’ve made friendships that will last a lifetime. It’s been a blast.
“I hope to see you over the next few weeks before I close the doors for the final time.”
Responding to the post on Facebook, one shopper said: “That’s a shame. I was literally just thinking of popping in.”
Another said: “Gutted to hear this!”
A third shopper said: “So sad to read this , as our yearly trip to Harrogate always includes a visit this shop.”

Beales, one of Britain’s oldest department stores, has launched a closing down sale before it shuts its last remaining shop after more than 140 years.
The company will shut its branch in Poole’s Dolphin Centre on May 31.
The sale includes fashion, furniture, gifts and cosmetics, being sold for up to 70% off.
Beales chief executive Tony Brown blamed the “devastating impact” of the rise in national insurance contributions and the higher minimum wage for the store closure.
Meanwhile, high street fashion chain New Look has begun to close stores as it scales back its UK footprint.
It is understood to be shutting nearly 100 stores – equivalent to around a quarter of its 364 shops.
Stores in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, St Austell, Cornwall and Porth, Rhondda Cynon Taf have launched closing down sales.
Reports suggest that the company has been forced to accelerate the pace of store closures due to tax changes in the Autumn Budget.
Meanwhile, Huttons in London will shut its store in the Putney Exchange due to excessive energy costs.
The gift shop became a local icon after it opened in the 1990s.
