Liquidation World Q1 Revenue Increases 2.2%
Jan. 10, 2005  – Calgary, Alberta

Jan. 10, 2005 – Calgary, Alberta Liquidation World Inc. (LQW – TSX) (the “Company”) announces revenue for the first quarter of the 2005 fiscal year. Revenue for the 13 weeks ended January 2, 2005 increased 2.2% to $51.7 million from $50.6 million during the 13 weeks ended January 4, 2004.

Complete financial results of the first quarter of the 2005 fiscal year will be announced in February 2005. Due to fluctuations in gross margins and other expenses, an increase in revenue does not necessarily lead to an increase in net earnings.

In December 2004, a new outlet was opened in Prescott, Ontario which will leverage off of the existing support infrastructure the Company has in south western Ontario.
