"Let's Play Jeopardy!" - Pennsylvania Edition
Clue:
This Pennsylvania bargain chain started in Mechanicsburg in 1982 with a simple closeout-store idea and grew into one of the most recognizable discount retailers in the country. Known for overstock deals, oddball finds, bargain shelves, and that treasure-hunt feeling where you go in for one thing and somehow leave with a cart full of random surprises, it has expanded far beyond its local roots. The company now reaches 672 stores in 35 states after opening 27 new locations in just one quarter, proving that a Pennsylvania-born bargain store can turn discount shopping into a national habit.
