sorry for the extra post, just saw this now.
Looks like they have precious little left to sell to pay day to day bills. Already the Sears at my local mall closed but the Kmart is still open.........somehow. | ||

just amazing. The Sears catalogue was the "Amazon.com" of its day. How the mighty have fallen. I miss the Sears stores I remember. | ||

Ugh.
Kmart here in Boynton folded their tents in the 90s, then taken over by Winn-Dixie. W/D closed after a short time, it always "smelled bad" in there. We still have a Kmart north of here, but in an "iffy" 'hood.
We still have a nice Sears at the Boynton Mall, but I only go there to get watch batteries (I have lots of watches, most battery-powered). It's right next to appliance dept. Sometimes I'll wander over there while I'm waiting. Salesmen come after me like vultures! Appliances are "floored" just randomly it seems; at THD we had a plan for what goes where. Much easier to do an upsell or a step-down. IMHO. Boynton Mall has two other anchor stores, Penney's and Macy's. Uh-oh! Mall's 4th anchor was a Dillard's, which has been shuttered since I moved here in 2012. Now it's undergone conversion to a "Church Of What's Happenin' Now", if you get my drift. Lots of parking was the draw for them. If Sears closes, where will I go for batteries? | ||
