This Ollie's bargain outlet is located in the Landmark Crossing shopping center at 1314 Bridford Parkway in Greensboro, North Carolina. This store was a Circuit city store until the chain's demise. The Greensboro Kmart store I also did a post on is in the same shopping center.
Here are some pictures I found online

I live in GSO. Actually I visited this store many-a-time when it was a Circuit City. It was Circuit city until about 2007, when the store moved to a new shopping center on Wendover Ave. (About 3 blocks away, on the site of the former Guilford Mills plant). That store was the final location in GSO, operating until the company folder in 2008 or 2009 (I don't rightly remember which).
ReplyDeleteThe Circuit City chain folded in 2009 with the final day of operation being March 8.
DeleteOllie's has been opening up 26 stores a year and part of the CCMP family, where other retailers are laying off and shuttering doors. Great niche retailer.
