I'm kinda sad to see this store close even if it is located in Sequim (next city over) it was always fun for my mom and I to look around in, they have such a great variety and you almost can't beat the prices! Their slogan - "Big Lots, brand names close-out prices." It will be missed, the Sequim community still needs this store. I was a bit surprised when I first saw this, but than again, not really. It's too bad.
I do like our Port Angeles Dollar Store and Dollar Tree, but I don't go in those very often, well I don't/didn't go into Big Lots much at all either. Monday was the first time in a very long time that my mom and I went in there (hey, she was finally feeling well enough to go out, well sort of).
The target closure date is set for May 15th.
Big Lots has been in Sequim's QFC shopping center for more than six years, but that's just how competition goes, I suppose.
