Bradlees is a discount department-store chain based in Braintree, Mass., that operates in seven Northeastern states. It filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy laws in June 1995. It emerged from bankruptcy in February 1999. But in the 11 months since, they have retreated to fire-sale levels.
