Worked in the corporate office for a decade back in the early 90’s. In fact, my boss and I were instrumental in starting the Legal Dept of the company, Consolidated Stores (Phillipi Rd, Columbus, OH). At that time, there were both Odd Lots and Big Lots stores, as well as a toy store chain. It’s so sad to see a company that was so successful close their doors. There’s so many people who will be out of work. Not only the employees of the stores, but also the corporate headquarters and the warehouse. My thoughts and prayers are with the employees and their families that are affected by the closure.
That’s why it’s so important. I have a Plan B. And not put all your eggs in one basket 🧺 with one job or one stream of income. I feel bad for the employees that are gonna be out of jobs.
Oh shit, I remember asking one employee if they were closing when they said they were filing for chapter 11 months ago he said no and now they're coming for his ass with this chapter 7 bankruptcy. Damn, god bless I'm gonna see if I can get some towels for cheap today.
Not joe's fault that all the stores I have ever been in have 1 to 2 people in it at any given time. Shoppers that is. I have 4 stores around me and I visit them often.
@@250hero is joes fault. we are now spending over half our income on housing, cant afford to shop even to eat let alone recreational. him milking us like cattle the last 4 yrs prevents us from spending money. killed the economy. its unaffordable to live. that happened all under joe. so they can tell you america is doing GREAT! cause their pockets are great.
@@250hero You do realize that the low number of people shopping in the stores is a direct result of Bidenomics and people not having extra money to spend, do you not?
Thanks for the forecast! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
There Ain't No Discount Anything Out There Anywhere All Of A Sudden . All You'r Shit Is Actually Worth Something . Hang Onto It . When The New Comes In It Don't Sell At No Discount . And There Ain't That Much New Com'in In !!!
When Rents go up more than 50% and people can't afford to eat ... No one has purchasing power... And everything else Crumbles.
It's sad. I moved to Ohio from ny. Couldn't afford it anymore
Very sad news about big lots
Somewhere, many shoppers are crying. 😢

This is an ENORMOUS SUCCESS for Democrats!!
Ask Biden..
Once upon time was also knowing as Odd Lots
How about Small Lots? 🤔
Ocean State Job Lot and Ollie’s Surplus are splitting the company. They want to pay next to nothing for the struggling company!!
So sorry. I remember it was Pic and Save then McFrugal's.
I shopped at Pic and Save as a child. They were really cheap and had great deals.

@@yminoh Too bad Trump can't save these companies but he's gotta save the country first and most importantly.

The one cashier at register and no self checkout didn't help I'm also avoiding the dollar tree because of the same thing
There is a big lots in Cary and Raleigh, NC that I still occasionally shop at
Lmao....how will people afford housing without jobs..
Thanks a Lot!

I see a lot of things once at Big Lots are at the Dollar Tree so i'm glad at least the suppliers are still getting business.
Still waiting for Dollar Generals to close and go bankrupt. My money goes to real grocers like LIDL and ALDI.
Crappy store. What the hell was Big Lots even for when I already have the Dollar store to go to. Go to Dollar General instead.
Too much real estate and too much inventory.
Recession is here. 😅
Noooo 😢😢😢😢
Goodbye and good riddance to bad rubbish!
Where did you go?
They had brand names at big lots also
Just close the world
floridas economy is getting worse.
Very sad
