    Or maybe it just carried the same merchandise as the store in the Florida Mall, just a far less selection to choose from.

    I believe it was always intended to be a popup store on a short lease.

    Maybe Blink isn't that stable. Or at least maybe this particular store wasn't. If we're talking low-priced merchandise in an area where the rent is probably astronomical, there just might not have been enough of a profit margin for the store to stay in business. Considering how many international visitors come to WDW, a temp tore selling World Cup merch will probably do quite well while it's there.

    This doesn't seem like a good sign of things to come if they aren't able to get stable companies in these shops. So now we'll have a temporary store selling World Cup merchandise? Sigh.
