“I keep joking that we are usually chasing prospects, but now seem to be tripping over them,” Sullivan said.

Bargain Hunt was initially expected to open today, but pushed its opening date back to early April, according to a spokeswoman. The store will open in the former PNC Bank location, where the second floor of the building was removed during renovation.
