The local Big Boy Market, on Jackson Avenue, remains open as 2017 gives way to 2018 and owners are continuing with a 30 percent off sale but are also doing some re-stocking of the shelves as talks are ongoing with prospective buyers for the market in hopes of keeping it open well into the New Year and beyond. They are building the inventory back up slowly and said the store will be open for the foreseeable future.
