A new store called "5 Below" opened here Friday March 8th. The place was packed Saturday when I went there. It is just like the Dollar Tree except everything is 5 dollars or less. It is located right in between Target and the PetCo and by the looks of it all 3 of them were pretty busy. I didn't see any great deals but I did not see any rip offs so I give the place the thumbs up.
Another "'5 Below" store opened Friday in Bellevue right behind Arbys and Sonic around 20th & Cornhusker.
Like this place or not it is 10 times better then the new "Its $5" store in the Bluffs Mall.
Probably more of a transportation comment, but northbound I-680 from the I-L-Q feeder lanes has been closed for a while. I've gone to the L street Walmart regularly because it is unbelievably fast to get to from where I'm at. Lately, because of construction, the trip back home is a lot longer than the trip there. Anybody know about when this stretch will reopen?
