Sunny's Surplus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sunny's Surplus (now Sunny's Great Outdoors and also known as Sunny's The Affordable Outdoor Store) is a chain of 15 surplus stores in Washington, DC, Maryland, Northern Virginia, and Delaware. The chain was founded in 1948 to sell World War II surplus. It later added camping gear, and in 1990 renamed itself.

Sunny's is a Baltimore, Maryland, landmark, and has appeared in Barry Levinson's movie Liberty Heights and show Homicide. The chain's "dog in the gas mask" commercial was awarded a Clio.

In early February 2007, Sunny's began liquidation sales as it prepared to close down all of its locations after the Elkridge-based company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy for the second time in a decade.
