Why are the buildings ALL dollar stores now? ? :o
well those are the kind of stores that would replace ames. either there is already a wal-mart or target or the ames is too small for now a days discount stores is why ames is mainly now dollar stores. Another is dollar stores are growing and probably attract the same customer base, ames attracted elderly people! Dollar tree is thriving. Not all of the ames' are dollar stores though. some ames have become Ocean state job lots too though.

Here's a picture from the flea market now operating in the Napanoch, NY store.  I remember this banner from my Ames, apparently they're using one left over to sell a bunch of cheap stolen cell phone crap.
