Just heard on the radio that bennys is closing their doors by the end of the year. Another one bites the dust to the big box stores. This one hurts a little more for me. Have a lot of good memories from my childhood. Got my first bike there with the training wheels. My last trip i ever made to bennys was 2 weeks ago for a case of water.

Shopped the one in Westerly since early 80s.  Shocked it survived as long as it did once Walmart moved in.  Very sorry to see it go.  I was there just a few weeks ago.  The Westerly store hadn't changed since I was a kid.  Looked basically the same inside and out.

Wakefield fishing section was wiped out the other day. 

Nothing is being re-stocked. The fishing section in the three Benny's that I've hit have been bare. Did get some hooks in Wakefield yesterday. One guy bought the PVC pipe displays that the rods were in.
