“Not many Roses still around. I was surprised to see this one in Laurinburg and called Roses Express. Last time I was in town they had one located in the shopping plaza where the old Cinema is and the old skating rink was. The last one I was in was at Myrtle Beach about 3 years ago the last time I visited the Carolinas. My first job was at the Roses in Bennettsville that was destroyed by the tornado in 1984. It was my first job and I had only worked a week and I was in the store when the tornado hit with my best friend ! Luckily neither one of us was seriously hurt. The store is clean and organized unlike many bargain stores you go into like Family Dollar , 99 Cent Store , etc that I've been in the past. We have lots of these bargain stores in Las Vegas and most are pretty good , but not all. I came in here to buy flowers for my Mom and Dads' grave. They had a good selection of flowers at very reasonable prices and they were good quality too. I also got a bottle of multivitamins and and sweet tea. They even had a selection of Moon Pies. What Southern Store doesn't have Moon Pies right. They have lots of clothes and hats to choose from , outdoor stuff like rocking chairs and pop canopy , bathroom items like soaps and hair products , you name it. My Mom also worked for Roses back in the early 80's here in Laurinburg and transferred to the Bennettsville location. Luckily she was off the day of the tornado.”
“On a road trip and needed to stop for cold remedies. They had it all. Right at the front door. Way better selection than CVS. And, we were in and out in a jiffy. Thanks DG!”
Burlington Stores is giving its locations a major makeover. The off-price retailer has already transformed about half of its 1,115 stores and plans to complete the redesign across its entire fleet by the end of 2026. The company calls this makeover "Store Experience 2.0." Gone are the cramped aisles and confusing layouts that once defined discount shopping. Instead, Burlington is creating wider walkways, organized sections, and clearer signs to help shoppers find what they need.
Dollar General is adding more of its private label food offerings to stores, following similar moves by big retailers like Walmart and Amazon as store brands keep growing in popularity.

Dollar Tree is moving into 170 former 99 Cents Only stores, marking a big shift in the discount retail landscape. The company announced Wednesday it's taking over leases in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Texas, with plans to reopen the stores under its own brand as early as fall 2024.
Ollie's Bargain Outlet just landed a great deal of its own, winning a $14.6 million bankruptcy auction for 11 former 99 Cents Only store locations across Texas. The discount retail chain pounced after 99 Cents Only abruptly went out of business in March, shuttering all 371 of its stores in California, Arizona, Texas, and Nevada. Ollie's quickly made an opening "stalking horse bid" to grab over a dozen of the empty properties.
