They aren’t known as the category killers for nothing, current focus is automotive,pets,bulk landscape supplies.
Look what they’ve done to flooring and tile markets.
Yep, they have a nasty habit of heavily discounting stuff, to the point of running the other out of town then 2 years or so later same stuff is gone for good, no spares no back up, nothing. One reason its good to spend your money in other stores as once the other store is gone and the big green building is the only one left they can control the price, the goods and customers.

Half the crap I've ever bought there I might as well have thrown it into the bin at the door on the way out.
