From the post:

>Big Lots, the discount retail chain, is the latest company to announce store closures across the U.S., and a handful of Colorado locations will soon shut their doors. In June, a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing from the company said Big Lots planned to close between 35 to 40 stores this year. Leaders within the company cited inflation and their inability to compete under economic pressures as one of the reasons for the closures. During the first quarter of 2024, the company reported $1 billion in sales, a 10.2% decrease compared to the same period last year, said Big Lots.

We'll see how much longer they survive. They went from being an unclaimed freight / misc lots store to Dollar General with less glitter and some cheap as shit furniture.

They did this to themselves by not differentiating themselves from other generic retailers. Why go there when sprawl-mart is the same thing?

Yeah, over a decade+ ago I would go to them now and then since you could sometimes get a deal. I did end up seeing things there where I thought the prices were laughable though. I have not been in one for a long time though so I have no idea what they are like these days.

There's nothing special there these days. You might find some oddball out-of-market food items, they still seem to get overstocks there - but that's about it.

Everything is like that now. "Black Friday" used to actually have good deals. Now they make garbage products JUST for black Friday. Amazon artificially created "prime day" I have never seen a single thing worth buying for "prime day".

Its all such bullshit. (Angry old man shaking fist at clouds).
