As much as it pains me to say it, this is fake news. What we actually have here are incompetent, ignorant, or vindictive store owners own interpretation of the order.

The actual text of the order reads as follows:

d. For stores of more than 50,000 square feet:

1. Limit the number of customers in the store at one time (excluding employees) to 4 people per 1,000 square feet of customer floor space.
   The amount of customer floor space must be calculated to exclude store areas that are closed under subprovision (2) of this subsection.

2. Close areas of the store—by cordoning them off, placing signs in aisles, posting prominent signs, removing goods from shelves, or other
   appropriate means—that are dedicated to the following classes of goods:
   
	A. Carpet or flooring.
	B. Furniture.
	C. Garden centers and plant nurseries.
	D. Paint.
