Here's some bad news and some good news.
The bad first: the parent company of babystyle.com has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
The good news: they're not going out of business, just closing some stores.
Daddytypes reports that six of the company's 23 store locations will liquidate inventory within five weeks. Locations to be closed include:
The Shops at Mission Viejo, Mission Viejo, CA
Barton Creek, Austin, TX
Willow Bend, Plano, TX
Roosevelt Field, Garden City, Long Island, NY
West Farms, Farmington, CT

Bargain shoppers, keep your eyes peeled during the next five weeks.
