Full Member. 2.3k. Location/ZIP Code:Cottage Grove (TC Jester by I-10) Posted May 24, 2005. Yeah, Big Lots often takes older retail space and sets up their stores. I wondered what will happen to Hwy 6 with all thoses abandoned retail locations because stores moved out to near the new US 59. Quote.
1 lot = 100 shares. Also known as a "round lot". Less than 100 shares = an "odd lot". "bid" means there are potential buyers bidding that much money for that many lots. "ask" means there are sellers asking that much money for that many lots. The information could be of value if you are interested in thinly traded, low priced stocks sometimes ...
When big lots opened it was an actual discount store. The bought "lots" of items that were heavily discounted then put them in stores to sell. Now it's a furniture store and other dollar general stuff at marked up prices.
Also, a few weeks ago, I noticed the Goody's sign is gone and Big Lots is opening its place. To be honest, I didn't miss Big Lots when it left the first time. I didn't either, it seemed kind of trashy to me.
Painter Pat Colville was working in a Brooklyn loft, but two years ago, when looking for a place to live part of the year, she bought a 2-acre farm in northwest Houston, on the edge of Acres Homes.
yep, that's where it was - the doors faced the south loop though. In the last years of Gulfgate it had became a Pic-N-Sav. Which became MacFrugals (which is now Big Lots). My memory of Gulfgate from when I was a little kid was going to Playhouse toys. I think it was in the wing that exited to the pedestrian crossover over the Loop.
The lack of zoning means that density can grow organically in Houston, as opposed to places with many square miles of land zoned as single family only, where there can be no density increase. And, the area in the picture wasn't exactly high end. It was a bunch of really run down mid 20th Century frame houses on larger lots.
Yeah, the Big Lots was a Wal-Mart, and the Hobby Lobby was a Kmart. While Wal-Mart moved twice and is still around as a Supercenter, the Kmart cut out about a decade before they left Houston area for good.
That there is another Kmart that was turned into an asian grocery peaks my interest. I'm not familiar with the corner of Texas and 2818, but there was another Kmart at the corner of the West Beltway and Beachnut that was remodeled and expanded to be the Viet Hoa shopping center.
Big Daddy Unlimited is unique in that you need to pay a monthly membership to have access to their catalog. Currently you can do a trial for only a $1 to use the service for the first month. and $10/mo thereafter. No contracts. I have made several orders and all have went extremely well.
