big-box store
Sprawling retail outlet
A big-box store is a large retail establishment, typically a warehouse-style building with a simple rectangular footprint—hence the name.
These stores offer wide selection at low prices through high-volume sales: We went to the big-box store for bulk paper towels.
Common examples include Walmart, Costco, and Home Depot.
