Lot-Less reminds me of Odd jobs. I used to like Odd jobs too.

When down in Tribeca and or at least near City Hall/Chambers Street keep meaning to stop in Lot-Less, but never really bother. Once am on a move to catch the train at City Hall nothing seems to be able to stop me. *LOL*

You're not going to find anything else that big in NYC

Your best alternative is Lot-Less

I miss Liquidators. I miss Radio Shack. I dunno, on a very small scale it feels like dying, little by little.

A former coworker of mine died at less than 60. Someone I grew up with died at 34. Heck even the TV fixture Alex Trebek got Stage IV pancreatic cancer

Nope it was Odd Job. I added the s and wrote odd jobs because their was numerous ones. But the store's name was Odd Job. I went to one on 39th and 8th ave and another one over by Bloomingdales.
