It has happened before and it will happen again - big box stores expand too fast and then they have to close some. We end up with tons of empty big boxes and everyone is all upset. Then, somehow a few years later there is a new set of stores that takes over all the empty boxes and the proces starts over. Let's see how many big boxes we can think of that went out last time that got replaced with the targets, circuit cities, best buys, and home depots of today. I'll start - around here it was - caldor, builders square, hechingers, etc.
