Allow me to make a prediction, Big 5 and Bilson’s go out of business within a year. The new jobs “created” here will offset the ones lost at mom and pop shops that have been in turlock for generations. I will not be shopping at Dicks.
Times change. I’ll shop at Dick if they offer value. Big 5 is doomed as well it should be. Its the Thrifty’s of sporting goods and its time to fold.
From oldest to newest sporting goods stores in Turlock… Bilson’s, Big 5, Dick’s. Anyone remember older Turlock sporting goods stores back in the day before Bilson’s?
I went to Bilson’s once they were rude and I have never been again. Big 5 will hang in there if they lower their prices and make the store less cluttered. Dicks will level off if they continue to be pricey!
