Fact Check: Is Evansville Getting a Second Five Below Store?

I found a few clues that made me look into the possibility of Five Below opening another Southern Indiana store.

Clue Number One

I noticed a giant sign that said Five Below is now hiring. But wait, it also says 'Coming Soon'. But we already have a Five Below, in fact that is where I was heading to at that very moment.

Five Below is Open

The current location of Five Below is open at the Evansville Pavilion 6501 East Lloyd Expressway Evansville, IN 47715. So, what does this hiring and coming soon sign mean?

Clue Number Two

As we were leaving, I noticed a very similar storefront just steps away from Five Below. It's still under construction, but why would they have two Five Below stores within a few feet of each other?

3 Doors Down - Clue Number Three

There have been a lot of business changes in the Target area just in the past couple of years. The space that housed Pier 1 has been empty for quite a while, but it looks like a familiar numbered store is moving in - That's right, a new and larger Five Below.

While we don't have an opening date for the larger Five Below location, I would imagine that the transition will be pretty seamless. They could have little magic elves moving things over in the night. Ok, maybe not, but I am excited to find more bargains!
