Following the closure of the Big Lots Home store, a new suitor has emerged to take over the space at 750 Perry Ave. in Big Rapids.

Signage on the building alludes to Ollie's Bargain Outlet being the next business to set up shop. As alluded to in their "good stuff cheap" tagline, Ollie's is one of the largest closeout retailers of merchandise and excess inventory franchises in the United States. 

According to their website, Ollie's has over 550 stores nationwide. There are 25 Michigan locations, including nearby stores in Alma, Alpena, Bay City, Muskegon, Saginaw, and Wyoming. There newest Michigan location will be opening in Walker on Thursday, Nov. 20. 

Departments that can be found at Ollie's include but aren't limited to health and beauty, kitchenware, electronics, hardware, clothing and accessories, sporting goods, automotive, toys and games, food and candy, seasonal decor, and cleaning supplies. Items within these categories can often be found at very high discount prices, some as high as 70 percent, as many come from overstock, closeout, and refurbished items from liquidated companies. 

Time and date of the store's opening are unknown at this time.
