OCALA, FL (352today.com) – The pOpShelf location in Ocala is preparing to close, though an official closure announcement has not yet been issued by the company.

Located at 4901 E. Silver Springs Blvd. in Six Gun Plaza, the store has recently drawn significant customer interest as shoppers take advantage of a storewide 50 percent off sale. The increased traffic has reportedly led to inventory shortages throughout the store.

The location is temporarily closed while employees restock merchandise. The store is expected to reopen on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, at noon.

Multiple reports indicate the Ocala location is expected to close in early July, although no official signage at the store publicly confirms a final operating date.

POpShelf, a retail concept operated by Dollar General, offers a variety of home décor, seasonal merchandise, beauty products, gifts, party supplies and household items. The store has developed a following among local shoppers since opening in Ocala in 2021.

News of the reported closure has generated discussion among residents on social media, with many expressing disappointment at losing the retailer. Others have encouraged shoppers to visit the store while clearance discounts remain available.
