Having Las Vegas
– A 99-cent-only store opened at 3141 N. Rancho Drive in July 2011. Arrivals early to the store's 8 a.m. opening got the chance to purchase items at special prices, the Review-Journal reported. For example, the first nine people in line got the chance to buy a 22-inch flat-panel LCD TV from Philips for 99 cents. The store was the chain's 13th store in the Las Vegas Valley.
– The Review-Journal wrote in 2013 that 99-cent-only stores were working to bring beer and wine sales to the area. The chain has requested approval from the Las Vegas Planning Commission to sell the products at three of its 15 locations: 1200 S Decatur Blvd., 45 N. and 1155E. Charleston Blvd.
