Card Market, a sister shop to WHSmith, put signs up in its windows on Wednesday stating it would close on February 19.

The shop is throwing a half price sale on everything in store, excluding their Valentines gifts and cards. The sign also thanked customers.

It is not yet known if any of the employees will be relocated or offered alternative employment in a WHSmith store.

Card Market is the latest to shut up shop in the town centre and first of the year ,following the closure of Next and Blue Inc at the latter part of last year.

A spokesperson for WHSmith said: 'We can confirm that the Cardmarket store in King's Lynn will be closing when the lease expires.'
