New bin-shopping bargain concept described as a ‘hybrid between thrifting and auctions’ opening soon

Columbus Bargain hunters, rejoice. Retail Rush is opening soon.

The new concept, which is billed as a ‘hybrid between thrifting and auctions,’ will hold its grand opening on Nov. 14. It’s located at 4645 Morse Centre Rd.

According to a press release, Retail Rush inventory is made up of “retail returns, overstock, and unsold goods from popular big-box and online retailers so shoppers can get the best brands for less.”

Shoppers will have several options at the new North Side storefront. They’ll be able to bid online (with the winner picking up their items in store), buy online items instantly at a fixed price, or they’ll be able to “Bin Shop” the store itself.

Here’s how the Bin Shop option works. The store is made up of massive containers filled with boxes from different retailers, and every item on a given day costs the same amount. The store is most expensive on restock day (which happens every Friday morning), and becomes less expensive each following day. Here’s the pricing schedule for bin shoppers:

Tuesday: $3
Wednesday: $2
Thursday: $1 OR fill a bag for $10 (bag is $10 first purchase, can bring back)
Friday: $7
Saturday: $5
