Big Lots

How about Ollie's Bargain Outlet?  The two stores I have been to were former Hills/Ames stores.  All they did with these stores was move the shelves around, and build a some makeshift tables for the "Buyout Blowouts" where they just put the boxes of stuff that they got from local buyout sales.  These boxes are not organized at all.  I don't even think they look in these boxes before they put them out on the tables.  There are boxes of tampons in the same box as children's toys and Playboy magazines with kitchen knives!

Other stores that use recycled buildings:
Spirit Halloween Superstore
Calendar Club/Go! Games & Toys (most are recycled stores in dying shopping malls)
Halloween Express

How can we forget Building 19 with their recycled buildings. Only chain I know that is glad their stores are messy, disorganized and in such a shabby state.

There's a local clothing store called Campus Den which operates in small mall spaces. One of them near me used to be about 2/3 of a former Lerner New York, one was a very obvious former Lane Bryant, etc. etc.

Several Burlington Coat Factorys that I've seen are fairly cheap looking as well.

Calendar Club used to operate out of a space inside of the mall in downtown Green Bay, Wisconsin during the mall's last few years of operation during the holiday season.

Has anyone here ever heard of, or been to, a Calendar Club store?

Yes.

In defense of places like Spirit Halloween Stores and Halloween Adventure for a place that's only going to be open for about a month or two I really can't blame them for not being too elaborate with their buildings.
