It’s that magical time of year again when the air is filled with the spirit of the holidays. Two of the Spirit Christmas stores have officially opened their doors in New York, marking the beginning of festive fun in the Northeast.
Initially, ten Spirit Christmas stores were planned, as announced in October, with three earmarked for New York. However, the company has since adjusted its plans, reducing the number to eight stores in total, with only two making their debut in the Empire State.
