An Ocean State Job Lot store just opened around my area about three years ago. Not even a year after it opened, it literally seemed like the parking lot was always empty. It went from tons of excitement, to hardly any customers, in about a year, maybe even less. I have to admit, I wasn't as excited after I went in there a few times. They had good deals on name-brand clothes, but they had very limited selection. Same with handbags and whatnot. Is the Ocean State near you more successful? There is one near my aunt up north, and that one is always busy!
