3. Sadly, not our local store, and none near enough to be worth the bother.

I liked Big Lots, they had some really good stuff at really good prices. I once bought five gallons of cheap paint ($3 a gallon) and painted my mobile home. It lasted for seven years or so before it started fading away. I couldn't afford anything else, including primer. I got a couple of roller handles and a pack of covers, and my sons and I got it done in a day. We didn't have Dollar Tree back then, and rollers/covers were crazy at Lowe's (none at the Walmart we had). So, for $20 bucks and some labor, I made the house look so nice.
