Seariously......

I went today to see the deals they had. Have a friend who needs a bed. All their beds are 60-70% off!!!

Good deal I think, I'll head over and see if they have any generators for me, and check beds for him.

This sears has no generators at all, so waste of time for that, but I head over to the bed section. There is a VERY bored girl standing there, just waiting for ANYONE to come by and speak to her, wishing she had some drugs to numb the pain of the endless hours of dullness. I say hello and her eyes light up....a customer!!! I explain what I am looking for and her face kinda falls, like she knows whats about to happen.

She leads me to the back of the area, to show me the "cheapest" mattress they have...this is just the mattress mind you, not the frame as well. With the sale....WITH IT.....the mattress was $560 or so...........

Yeah, it was normally over 1k without a sale....I don't know anyone who would pay that much for a mattress that is freaking insane. Crazy.

Also they are currently running a sale throughout the store where if you buy something yo get it's equivalent off in sears points (half right away, half in 2 months).

Is the store even going to be there in 2 months for customers to spend the points?

Worst sale ever...and yeah, if you charge that much for everything, nobody is going to buy your crap. There is a reason I have not been in a sears in over a decade I guess. Seems like that same reason affected most of the rest of their customers as now...they are closing.

I can only imagine it's actually a good thing considering the glassy, numb, almost semi-dead stare of the employees I saw today. I know there are worse jobs, but....the brief visit today seemed like a short trip into hell. Might be the scariest halloween exhibit I have ever seen in fact.
