Ocean State Job Lot, headquartered in North Kingstown, Rhode Island, is an American discount retailer with 131 discount stores operating in New England, New York and New Jersey. The chain takes its name from Rhode Island's nickname, "The Ocean State", and from "Job Lot", which means a miscellaneous group of articles, especially when sold or bought together.
Ocean State Job Lot opened for business in 1977 as a single store operation in North Kingstown, RI. The merchandise selection consists of a variety of manufacturer's overruns, overstocks and packaging changes, as well as selected other products. The company continues growing their business in the Northeast.
The company greatly expanded after Ames went bankrupt in 2002, buying many former locations in New England.
