I'm not that impressed with Big Lots. Sure, they have great bargains on stuff, but it's stuff that you really don't need. Come on, who need a 10 pack of laundry baskets? Or a case of dryer balls?
The people who tend to like Big Lots are the people who will buy anything, if it's cheap enough. I like to buy only what I need... and there's not much of that at Big Lots.
Still, it's a great place to kill some time. I definatley am impressed by how cheap stuff is, but since their selection changes all the time, you can't really go in there with a shopping list. You usually start browsing, and walk out with stuff that was really cheap, but that's just going to take up room in your closet because you don't really need it.
