I have a poinsettia I got from a local store in town. I dont know what I am
doing wrong but a LOT of the leaves are falling off.

What could I be doing wrong?

Almost anything. :-) If the plant was exposed to cold wind or very
low temperatures on the way home, that might account for it. Over- or
under-watering, interior drafts, too cold, too hot or too dry inside.
Here's a site with care tips:
