It's Personal, 7011 Saint Andrews Road Suite 1: Summer 2019 no comments
One of the congratulatory graffiti on the windows of this Murraywood Centre personalized gifts store mentions that they have been in business for 26 years, which is certainly a good run and prelude to a well deserved retirement. Their Facebook page has some of the details.
It looks like the final sale is already ongoing, so you'd better get down there soon if you want to check it out.

Quick Stop & Go III, 6002 Saint Andrews Road: November 2018 2 comments
I first did a closing for this site when it had just finished being Nicks Citgo as can be seen in the first picture above. After that, it reopened as an Exxon without a name on the marquee at all, at least at first. At any rate, by the time it was torn down in November 2018, it was Quick Stop & Go III. Now the building has been completely razed (along, I believe, with the adjacent Seven Oaks Auto Repair & Tires) and is apparently being rebuilt as a Circle K.
UPDATE 17 April 2019 -- Construction continues:
UPDATE 19 August 2019 -- The Circle K is now open:
Bank Of America, 4300 Saint Andrews Road: 16 October 2018 no comments
There's not much to say about this closing except that the process of branch pruning at banks is continuing apace.
As a Bank of America customer I have used this ATM a number of times to avoid fees, but have never been in the branch itself. For now, the ATM will remain.

UPDATE 28 February 2022 -- Now A-1 Transport which seems to be at least partly an ambulance company:
McDonald's, 600 Saint Andrews Road: January 2018 (open again) 5 comments
As commenter Andrew noted, another McDonald's is undergoing an upfit. This one, at the corner of Saint Andrews & Ashland Roads is apparently not going to be razed and completely rebuilt like the Forest Drive store.

UPDATE 26 March 2018 -- Open again:
Hannah Piano Co, 6169 St Andrews Road Suite 130: January 2017 4 comments
As mentioned by commenter Justin, and documented in this sale notice here, Hannah Piano in Seven Oaks Shopping Center is closing after 42 years as the owners are retiring.
The Liquidation Sale will offer new and used pianos of all sizes, finishes, and price ranges, digital pianos and all print music. Deep discounts will be offered over the coming weeks and the store will close their doors when everything is sold.
Unfortunately, the keyboard under my fingers now is the only kind I ever had an affinity for..

UPDATE 23 March 2018 -- The closeout is over and the place is now closed:
Gina's Pizza 2 Go, 6903 Saint Andrews Road: Summer 2017 3 comments
Gina's was the follow-on in this building to Little Caesar's & Custom Pizza. As far as I can tell from the Yelp reviews, they must have closed some time between June and late August of 2017. I never partook as I don't do take-out, and it's way away for me, but the reviews are pretty good.

Meineke Car Care Center, 6220 Saint Andrews Road: Summer 2017 2 comments
Commenter Homer sends in these shots of the Meineke across from Seven Oaks Shopping Center. This is right next to the Former NAPA that moved into the shopping center, although when I was doing that one, I somehow managed to take the long shots to completely miss this building except for this one:
and pretty nearly in that case too.

UPDATE 23 March 2018 -- Now Minnie's Auto Repair:
The Sunshine House, 6074 Saint Andrews Road: 2014 2 comments
This former daycare is well back from the road around where Old Bush River splits off from Saint Andrews road.
It appears to have been part of a chain of such centers, with other locations remaining open.
There is always something especially sad about an abandoned playground.

Jewelry Warehouse, 817 Saint Andrews Road Suite 101: 2010 6 comments
When I was taking pictures of Save a Lot on Saint Andrews Road, I noticed this vacant corner suite. I had no memory of it, despite having taken pictures there a number of times, but a little digging established that this was a Jewelry Warehouse location. Specifically, it was The State recommending the spot for
a commemorative poster featuring our next-day newspaper and sports section front pages
(of the USC baseball team's national championship) that included the elusive suite number.
If that was the last tenant, this spot has been vacant going on 7 years now.
TD Bank, 380 Saint Andrews Road: 31 July 2015 (moved) 2 comments
We go back to Saint Andrews Center for this closing. While I was leaving the plaza after taking the pictures of Tuesday Morning I noticed that this branch bank was vacant. As it turns out, this has been the case for quite a while (almost two years), as TD Bank decamped for 4320 Sunset Boulevard on 31 July 2015.
UPDATE 13 December 2019 -- As mentioned by commenter Andrew, this is now a health insurance office:
