	Big-box store - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Big-box store is a colloquial term used to describe a style of retail store, and by extension to the company behind the store.
		Generally, big-box stores can be broken down into two categories: general merchandisers, such as Wal-Mart and Target, and so-called category killers, such as Home Depot or Best Buy which specialise in goods within a specific range, such as hardware or electronics.
		In recent years, many traditional retailers such as Tesco and Praktiker have opened stores in the format in an effort to compete with big box chains, which are expanding internationally as their home markets reach maturity.

	Mindjack Magazine - books - The Big Con
		With the advent of the "big con" (cons in which the mark is taken for every cent he has, including the value of his house and business), con artistry began to merge with stagecraft.
		Big con men make use of a "big store" (an ersatz shop set up exclusively for the benefit [?] of the mark), complete with a "boodle" (a small army of confederates who impersonate police officers, customers, managers, employees, bankers, security guards, etc).
		The big cons are complex stories, ones in which the mark is introduced to an opportunity to participate in a semi-legal scheme (a fixed horse-race, insider stock trading) that requires a certain amount of intelligence to grasp.

		If a new store is meant to operate with 100 employees, the "attack" team will contain 150 and will include friendly, helpful salespeople for the first several months.
		Labor unions are becoming opposed to big box development due to the fact that the employees of such developments are usually not uionized.
		In order to find a compromise, some cities are now trying to impose design guidelines on big box development and to better incorporate the big box stores into their communities by, for example, making them more pedestrian-friendly.

	Discount Store News: Big men's equals tall profits - Brief Article
		Big men's clothing, eschewed in large part by department store retailers, has long been a strength of mass retailers and appears to be poised for growth in the new decade.
		"Big men's was good, with high single-digit increases in 1999, and we expect to see those same high single-digit increases for 2000," says Sandy Sansavera, senior vice president and general merchandising manager of Ames.
		The growth of big men's apparel is based not only on aggressive merchandising, but on the realities of the U.S. population.

		The store, near the Interstate 75 and Ohio 63 interchange on the Butler and Warren County border, is the first-ever expansion beyond a Hollywood, Calif., retail outlet.

	Book Review: The Big-Con
		The Big Con is both a curiosity and a joy.
		But there was more money to be made with the "Big Con," wherein, you not only separated the "chump" from his money, but sent him home, usually by way of a long train journey, for more.
		Instead of a "Big Store," where a "mark" is made to think he's walked into an established business like a betting parlor (as in "The Sting") or a brokerage house, you now open up a web site on the Internet.

	The Big Store - Marx Brothers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The Big Store (1941) is the last of the wonderful string of movies that the Marx Brothers began in 1929 with The Cocoanuts, although they made two more films after World War II.
		The Big Store is not as inspired with sparkling dialogue and byplay as the best of the Marx Brothers films, but there is plenty to like here.
		The flight-and-fight finale around the store on roller skates is deprecated by Allen Eyles in his fine discussion in The Marx Brothers: Their World of Comedy as a simple comedic chase scene, but I liked it as a kid and still like it.

		Crooked store manager Grover (Douglas Dumbrille) is anxious to take over the operation and to hide the fact that he's been juggling the books; to expedite this, he has arranged several "accidents" to put Tommy out of the way.
		Grover's efforts to get his hands on the incriminating photo leads to a zany slapstick chase through the department store, culminating in the villain's capture ("I told you in the first reel he was a crook," observes Flywheel) and a happy ending for Tommy and Joan.
		The Marxes were so disappointed with The Big Store that they vowed to quit moviemaking altogether -- only to return to the screen five years later in A Night in Casablanca.

		The major function of the Ten Commandments are to reveal who God is, and who someone is can be best understood by knowing what matters most to them.
		Our obeying the big "ten words" from God (or not) is always a matter of response to who he is more than it is a matter of morality.
		In this series, we will approach the Ten Commandments as autobiographical, self-revelatory messages from God about who he really is and how he wants our lives changed by knowing him.
