At September 30,1999, see IPO note in MD&A discussion. As of September 30, 1999,
our Senior Credit Facility and the Senior Subordinated Notes both limit the
Company's ability to pay cash dividends, accordingly dividends have not been
paid in cash. This statement does not reflect the accrual of $5,504 in 1998 for

Three Months Ended September 30, 1999
Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 1998

During the third quarter of 1999 sales increased 45.0%. Same store sales
increased 16.7%  for the fourth and fifth sales events, which began August 3 and
ended September 18.  The 45% increase in third quarter sales is due to
comparable store sales increases of $12.3 million and $22.7 million of new store
and non-comparative sales days.  Average store sales for the fourth and fifth
sale events increased from $226 thousand to $261 thousand.  The increase in
comparable sales was comprised of a 5.7% increase in the number of transactions
and a 10.4% increase in the average transaction amount. The primary factors in
our strong comparable store sales growth include our buying organization's
experience in providing value to customers. Our unique niche as the nation's
only high-end closeout retailer of home furnishings and gifts and the strong
economy also contributed to the strong sales.  In addition, we featured some
higher quality higher price merchandise.

        Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
                             Results of Operations

Gross profit increased $10.6 million from $30.8 million to $41.4 million
primarily as a result of the increased sales mentioned above. Our gross profit
percentage decreased 2.8% compared with last year. Our initial markup on
products purchased improved by 0.6%, however, this was offset by increased
buying and distribution expenses of 1.4% and markdown expense which increased by
2.0% as markdowns were taken early to create more space for new seasonal
product. Historically, these markdowns would have been taken in the fourth
quarter.

Selling, general, and administrative expense benefited from the leverage
resulting from increased sales.  These expenses increased $5.6 million due
primarily to the addition of new stores and inflationary increases.  These
expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased to 25.2% from 29.3% due to the
leverage  resulting from comparable store sales increases and non-comparative
sales days.

Interest expense decreased due to an early paydown of Term A and B notes in
October 1998 and early paydown of senior subordinated debt which is more fully
explained in the Initial Public Offering discussion.

EBITDA increased from $9.4 million to $13.9 million due to the factors mentioned
above.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999
Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998

For the first nine months of 1999 sales increased 31.9% due primarily to
comparable store sales increases of 15.7% and $37.1 million of sales from new
stores and non-comparative sale days.  Average store sales for the nine months
increased from $662 thousand to $759 thousand. The increase in comparable sales
was comprised of an 9.4% increase in the number of transactions and a 5.9%
increase in the average transaction amount.  The increase was primarily the
result of our buying organization's continued improvement in merchandise
selection, pricing, and mix, as well as some higher quality higher price point
merchandise.  Our unique niche as the nation's only high-end closeout retailer
of home furnishings and gifts and the strong economy also contributed to our
strong sales.

Gross profit increased $24.8 million from $80.5 million to $105.3 million
primarily as a result of the increased sales mentioned above. The gross profit
percentage decreased by 0.2% due primarily to increased buying and distribution
expense.

Selling, general, and administrative expense increased $13.2 million due
primarily to the addition of new stores and inflationary increases.  These
expenses as a percentage of sales decreased to 26.7% from 29.3% due primarily to
the leverage resulting from comparable store sales increases and non-comparative
sales days.

Interest expense decreased due to an early paydown of Term A and B notes in
October 1998, an early paydown of senior subordinated debt which is more fully
explained in the Initial Public Offering discussion and decreased borrowings
against the revolver.

EBITDA increased from $20.6 million to $31.9 million due to the factors
previously mentioned.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically financed our operations with funds generated from operating
activities and borrowings under the revolving credit facilities.

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 1999
and 1998 was $74.2 million and $81.6 million respectively. These amounts were
due primarily to the seasonal buildup of inventory and, in 1998, the payment of
fees and expenses related to the recapitalization.  Cash and cash equivalents as
of September 30, 1999 and 1998 were $11.4 million and $8.4 million respectively.

In June of 1999, we purchased a warehouse for $6.5 million that we had been
leasing.  This was financed through a ten-year mortgage with a floating interest
rate, currently at 7.114%.  Excluding the purchase of the warehouse, capital
expenditures principally associated with new store openings and warehouse
equipment were $5.8 million and $4.3 million for the nine months ending
September, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  We expect to spend approximately $1.3
million for capital expenditures for the remainder of 1999.

As part of the recapitalization, discussed in detail in the December 31, 1998
financial statements, the Company entered into the Senior Credit Facility, which
is comprised of the $110.0 million Term Loans and the $90.0 million Revolving
Credit Facility.  Subject to compliance with the terms of the Senior Credit
Facility and the Indenture, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may
be increased by $25.0 million to accommodate future growth and for certain other
purposes.  At September 30, 1999, the Company had $98.9 million outstanding
under the Term Loans and $70.9 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit
Facility, with $18.9 million of remaining availability thereunder.  The Term
Loan A loans and the Revolving Credit Facility loans mature in five years, and
the Term Loan B loans mature in seven years.  For 30 consecutive days during
each twelve-month period, beginning April 1998, the aggregate principal amount
of loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility is not to exceed $15.0
million.

The Senior Subordinated Notes bear interest at 11.0% and are due on December 15,
2007.  These notes are subordinated to any amounts outstanding under the Senior
Credit Facility.  Interest is payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year.

See the Initial Public Offering note on page 8 for a discussion on the paydown
of the notes and the redemption of preferred stock.

Upon consummation of the recapitalization, our total debt and interest charges
increased significantly.  Interest payments on the Notes, under the Senior
Credit Facility and on the Exchange Debentures, represent significant liquidity
requirements. The Notes require semi-annual interest payments, and interest on
the loans under the Senior Credit Facility is due quarterly. We anticipate that
cash flow generated from operations and borrowings under the Senior Credit
Facility will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs, planned capital
expenditures, and scheduled interest payments (including interest payments on
the Notes and amounts outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility).

The instruments governing the Company's indebtedness, the Senior Credit Facility
and the Indenture contain financial and other covenants that restrict, among
other things, the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur
additional indebtedness, incur liens, pay dividends or make certain other
restricted payments, consummate certain asset sales, enter into certain
transactions with affiliates, merge or consolidate with any other person or
sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of substantially all
of the assets of the Company.  Such limitations, together with our highly
leveraged nature could limit corporate and operating activities, including our
ability to invest in opening new stores.

Initial Public Offering

On March 12, 1999, we filed a Form S-1 registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission for the sale of shares of common stock, which
occurred on April 22, 1999.  A total of 7,590,000 shares of common stock were
registered and sold to the public.  This includes 5,515,000 sold by the company
and 2,075,000 shares sold by other shareholders.  As shown below, proceeds
received by the Company have been used to redeem a portion of the Junior
redeemable preferred stock and Junior perpetual preferred stock.  The remaining
Junior stock shares were converted to common stock.  The Senior exchangeable
redeemable preferred stock was redeemed on May 14, 1999 and $31.0 million of
Senior subordinated debt was paid on May 18, 1999.  These transactions resulted
in an extraordinary charge of $3.0 million, net of tax.

Inventory

The Company's inventory increased from $96.7 million at year-end to $194.5
million at September 30, 1999, for an increase of $97.8 million from
December 31, 1998. As reflected on the chart on page 12, the increase in
warehouse inventory is due to the seasonal nature of our business in which
inventory levels increase from the beginning of the year to September 30. The
Company plans a third sale event for this year's fourth quarter versus two in
the past. This additional event causes the pattern of the merchandise shipments
to the stores to be somewhat different than in the past. For 1999, a smaller
percentage of fourth quarter merchandise was in the stores than in 1998. This
results in the decrease in average inventory at the stores and increases in the
average held in the warehouse.

The decrease in inventory at the stores from September 30, 1999 to September 30,
1998 is the result of sales for the year in excess of shipments. Store level
inventory in excess of six months old is down over 20%.

Year 2000

We recognize that our business could be adversely affected by hardware and
software errors arising from calculations using the Year 2000 and beyond
("Y2K"). Y2K could adversely affect our ability to obtain, distribute and
process merchandise, run our stores, deal with our customers, handle daily
business functions, and receive payment from our customers and utilize these
funds in our business.

We have taken various steps in each of these areas to minimize the risk that our
business will be adversely affected.  Our ability to obtain merchandise is
dependent on vendors, freight companies, ports of entry and U.S. Customs.  We
have informally polled our largest vendors and, based on the information we have
obtained, believe that their systems are, or will be, Y2K compliant.  In
addition, we have contacted our primary freight companies and, based on the
information we have obtained, believe that their systems are also Y2K compliant.
U.S. Customs has stated on its website that its systems are Y2K compliant.

In order to determine that our internal operations are Y2K compliant we have
taken an inventory of all computer software programs and hardware.  We have
determined that our merchandise purchasing, inventory management, point of
sales, shipping and receiving, sales reporting, financial reporting and cash
management systems are Y2K compliant.  Our remaining system upgrade requirements
have been identified, tested and completed, including all file servers. Direct
expenditures and internal costs for these upgrades and updates have been and are
expected to remain immaterial to our operations.  We have evaluated our non-
information technology systems, such as our general office security systems,
store security systems, corporate access systems, environmental systems and
phone systems.  These systems are all now Y2K compliant.

Our ability to receive payment from our customers and utilize these funds in our
business is dependent on credit card processing companies and banks.  We have
contacted these companies and have been assured that their systems are, or will
be, Y2K compliant.

We recognize that our failure to resolve internal Y2K issues could result, in
the worst case, in our inability to distribute merchandise to our stores and to
process our daily business for some period of time.  However, we presently
believe that scenario is unlikely based on our Y2K remediation plan which has
been completed.  The failure of one or more of our third party service providers
to resolve Y2K issues could also result in a business interruption.  In
addition, the failure of one or more of our merchandise suppliers to resolve
their own Y2K issues could negatively affect us.  The lost revenue, if any,
resulting from a worst case scenario would depend on the length of time during
which such failure goes uncorrected and on how widespread the impact.

Our Y2K exposure is mitigated by the following factors:  (1) no vendor accounts
for more than 5% of our purchases; (2) we will receive substantially all of our
merchandise for the first sale event of 2000 before January 1, 2000; (3) our
first sales event of 2000 is scheduled to begin six weeks after January 1, 2000;
and (4) there is neither a contractual nor business reason for us to buy a
specific product from a specific vendor.

In order to further mitigate any business interruption caused by third parties,
we believe that we can easily change vendors, freight companies or ports of
entry if we find that we are unable to receive merchandise from specific
vendors.  We plan to test credit card processing in January 2000 and will change
processors if necessary.  Our cash management is handled by several banks and if
necessary can be shifted if one or more of these banks will not permit us to
access our funds.

Although Y2K issues or unanticipated or undiscovered Y2K compliance problems
could impact our operations, we believe that it is unlikely that Y2K issues or
problems will significantly adversely affect us.  Our Y2K compliance costs have
totaled $110,000 (excluding scheduled upgrades).
