Heard that Bottom Dollars are going out of business. Some, not all together. When can I find list of which ones are going when.
I knew people wouldn't like those cheap ugly stores.

For some reason, I thought of Bottom Dollars as something you put in a stripper's G-string when she turns around to show you the caboose end.
Seriously, I had no idea this was a chain of stores. What an odd name. No wonder they are going out of business. Check their corporate website, and you may find a list of store closings there.

Yeah, that is an image I don't really want to think about. Dollars in somebody's bottom. I can't imagine why a place like that would go bottoms up.

Isn't Bottom Dollar part of an old time-y phrase - you can bet your Bottom Dollar! Meaning a sure thing cause using the money you can't afford to/or don't want to lose won't be lost - cause it's a sure thing?
I can see that being a theme for a store - it's a sure thing you'll find 'savings' or the 'best price'....
I keep thinking it's a song from some musical... Annie comes to mind - but I've never seen that musical.... my stupid wandering mind...

The sun'll come out, tomorrow. Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow there'll be sun.
Yeah, that's from Annie.

Guess I'll retire to my rocking chair on the front porch. sip some iced tea, and wait for the sun to set before splitting some wood so I can make supper.

What are you... some kind of beaver? Seriously, I do not advise splitting wood in the dark. Better to do your chopping in the daylight, to minimize your chances of accidentally lopping off a toe or a foot.
