I'm not quite sure how well it's doing overall, but Books a Million, probably B&N's biggest brick and mortar competitor, seems to be doing alright in my local area. There are lots in the South (several within 30 minutes of me) and they have a lot of more discount options. I go to Target once in a while and have a BAM next door and I usually stop by. I can usually find some interesting titles for $1-$5.
