There weren't many people.
20% off most everything ... not that cheap but if you buy and brand name merchandise, 20% is good.

As you come in the door.
It is not empty yet.

I just needed to take this picture. ; )
Can I buy this mannekin?

I might buy this.

I went to Sports Authority's Going Out of Business Sale today. Almost everything is on sale for 20% off the price tag. I am sure they are going down more but for now they still have everything in their store. I bought couple of things.

It is another bricks and mortar (B&M) store going down the drain. It just cost too much to maintain large store and staff to run it. People even go to the B&M to test the equipment and if they like it buy it online. At this point, unless you have very strong Internet presence and use the B&M to deliver or accept return, you cannot compete with Amazon and eBay and other online stores.

This trend will continue. The B&M store is a show case for the products for people t test out before they buy it online.
