Big Lots

Hundreds of stores are being closed across the U.S. Here are some of the notable chains shutting down locations.

Big Lots! is reopening 219 stores across 9 states, including Kentucky and Tennessee. But Evansville locations remain closed for now.

The first wave of stores are already reopened. A second wave is scheduled for next month and will include these stores.

Big Lots filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in September of 2024 and closed all its stores in December. But now, several of them will reopen.

At least one chain is buying up several leases of former Big Lots stores as part of an aggressive expansion plan.

The lease sales offer a preview of which states might be seeing less of this chain in the future.

Sadly, the former Big Lots location will become vacant soon. The question is, what type of business would be the best fit for that space? Who would you like to see come to town?

Amid continued financial blows to the retailer, Big Lots may finally be reaching its final end as 2024 comes to a close.

It's been a challenging year for Big Lots after they've closed hundreds of stores and it doesn't appear they're done yet. Today, it was revealed that they are shuttering 50 more stores permanently and that includes a major one in Illinois.

Big Lots previously announced plans to shutter around 40 stores, and it now looks like more are on the chopping block, including five Indiana locations.

One of the nation's oldest discount chains--it was founded in 1967--Big Lots has announced a large number of store closures.

Big Lots is planning to shutter around 40 stores as the company opens up about their ability to continue.
