Big box

1) A plastic VHS case, that is bigger than a regular cardboard one.

2) A movie released in a big box. They often were cheap and sleazy horror films.

I just love big boxes from the 80's.

Big Box Syndrome

A type of psychological affliction that causes a person to only be able to over-shop at “Big Box” stores where anything under the Sun can be purchased which fuels the compulsive hoarding difficulties the person already struggles with.

I have a close relative who is suffering with Big Box Syndrome and it is a fine disorder indeed when another person has it and you are the lucky recipient of their generosity emanating from their pathetic and uncontrollable overspending!

Big-box store

A Big-Box Store is a large, free standing rectangular single floor store built on a concrete slab. They are incredibly wasteful and ugly to look at having no aesthetic value what so ever. Typically have very large parking lots with no trees.

Also sometimes called a superstore, megastore, or supercenter.

Walmart is a good example of a big-box store.

Big Box Store

A large department store modeling the architectural design of a warehouse. These are usually built in the suburbs where land is much cheaper than downtown.

So named because they resemble shipping giant boxes plopped in the middle of a sea of parking.

Big Lots, Target, Best Buy, Circuit City (RIP), and Bed, Bath & Beyond.

The King of Big Box Stores: Walmart.
