Money Making Source Closeout Retailing and Wholesaling?

I wanted to write today and keep it on the “Lighter Side”, but still offer a good source for closeout merchandise. More to follow on “The Lighter Side”

How successful can you be with retailing closeouts? I live about 2 miles away from a retail store called Biglots. This is one of my wifes favorite shopping destinations. After taking a trip there last week I understand why…They have an enormous selection of closeout merchandise. The entire store is stocked with merchandise like electronics, home decor, apparel and even food. All the products are closeouts from some of this countries largest manufacturers. The pricing is good and you really get the feeling of “finding a great bargain”.

The Biglots chain is the nations’ largest retail closeout store.
But wait, there is more. Biglots also operates Biglots Wholesale.

“BigLotsWholesale.com is a business-to-business exchange that provides top-quality merchandise at below-wholesale prices. As a division of Big Lots Stores, Inc., the nation’s leading buyer and seller of broad line closeout merchandise, we have long-time relationships with most of the world’s leading manufacturers.

You can purchase wholesale closeouts directly from BigLots Wholesale for your store! You must have a resale license/State Tax ID or be a 501 C non-profit organization to purchase from Biglotswholesale.com. If you do not have a resale license, Big Lots Wholesale will charge you Ohio sales tax on your order. To buy from Biglots Wholesale simply visit their Registration Page

How about the “Lighter Side” of todays post? Well, after researching the Biglots Website and company I found a section of their website dedicated to what they call The Closeout Museum where you will find several of what Biglots calls the craziest closeout deals they have offered!
