         This amendment No. 1 on Form 10Q/A amends the Quarterly Report Form 10-Q of Ames Department Stores, Inc. for the quarter   
ended May 4, 2002 by inserting the following text immediately before Item 1 of Part I thereof:                                      

The financial statements included in this Report have not been reviewed by an independent public accountant because the Registrant  
was unable to obtain such a review from Arthur Andersen LLP.  Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") who advised the Registrant that the
Registrant had been accepted by Deloitte as a client on August 1, 2002, will review the financial statements contained in this      
Report.  Such review is expected to be completed by the time the Company's quarterly report on Form 10Q for the quarter ended       
August 3, 2002 is filed.
