Re: Big Lots

I just returned from my BL field trip. They did not have many of the lights I posted. I did get a few packs of the pastel lights as I have a hard time finding those elsewhere.

I also picked up a green extention cord for $6. I swear, everytime I use the hedge trimmer, I saw into the cord and have to throw it away. This is the cheapest one I have seen.

It was worth the trip to check things out. I also stopped in Old Time Pottery. I found a glass candle sleeve to replace the one I broke on one of the original BL flameless sconces.

Could not believe I found it! It is the correct diameter but 1" taller. I can live with that!

I was there today. Nice things, but they are not cheap anymore. Remember when it was Pic n' Save?

Thanks for showing all the item pic's...I have access to 3 BL's in my area.

Now I have a reason to check them out, I have not been into Biglots since before Christmas when I was looking for wrapping supplies and cards.

There's a Big Lots somewhat near me and I stop in periodically. Sometimes they get in good food and baking items - like Bob's Red Mill products and Colavita noodles.

There was a period of about 3 years when I could not set foot in that store. They remodeled it and some bonehead decided to move the shelving units so they went diagonally across the store; it was nearly impossible to navigate through the store without getting blocked in at some point.

It was so bizarre that it made my brain hurt every time I went in. So I stopped.

(Anyone in this thread have the same experience with their Big Lots?).

Then someone put the shelving back in nice rows and I started shopping there again.
