  • Pic 'N' Save Corporation (later MacFrugals) was at one time the second-largest closeout retail chain in the United States. Financial troubles caused the chain to close many stores in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

    What memories of 1970's, & my mothers favorite store. Two blocks from Fed·Mart (Sol Price of Fed·Mart / Price Club, the prelude to Sam Walton & Walmart/ Sam's Club) but that's another story of Retail History. I remember MacFrugals from ATL and the change over to Big Lot's.
    Is it just me, because I don't find that big saving now, comparing Pic-N-Svae vs Big Lot's Prices.
    I have found Big Lot's selling things more expense than regular retails stores. Right Now Hot wheels has a special 57 year edition hot-wheels, Big Lot's price $1.59 and H·E·B (grocery store) $1.18 just like the regular Hot Wheels. I enrolled in their repeat customer program , three purchase you get a $15 Purchase Credit. I only made two, I could never find anything I liked.

    Truthfully, I miss Pic N Save. They always had something interesting to buy or at least look at. Then we had Moskatel's, which essentially became Michael's -- and Big Lots, which I always considered the poor man's Pic N Save.
    I never saw a MacFrugal's nor a Pic N Save Bargains, but I'm kinda glad of that. I would only see them as poor substitutes for the original.

    It would be interesting if Big Lots! went out and the PIC and SAVE Bargains took over the empty space. I like to see one in Bakersfield.

    I still refer to Big Lots as “Pic ‘n Save”. 😅
