    Big lots was awesome back in the 90s when it was closeout prices on name brand stuff…but then it just got to be another outlet for cheap stuff from China

      I loved going to Big Lots to find the weird shit that Walmart and Kmart couldn’t or wouldn’t sell. These days, I go to Ollie’s for that dose of bizarro capitalism.

      • An Ollie’s score means something because you have to be there at the right time, and even then you have to dig through shit to find what you want. I don’t have a lot of Ollie’s scores, but somehow they’re special.
