We all know sears and Kmart are going to die, so why not use this topic to say when they will die and talk about them?

Stores are closing down but there are like 1,000 combined of these stores left in the USA. A far cry from the past. Sears used to have 3,500 stores and Kmart had 2,100 stores.

AFAIK, there's a couple of Sears within 30 miles of me (Avenues Mall and Orange Park Mall). There used to be one at Regency Square Mall, but that mall's dying (makes sense why that Sears went belly-up).

K-Mart...used to have 8 locations in my hometown alone, but they're all gone now. One of them was remodeled into a public library, another one became an outlet for Burlington Coat Factory, and the others just sit vacant.

Does Sears still do their yearly catalog?


The yearly catalog that they used to send out every christmas time?

Those have been gone since 1993.

Your hometown had 8 Kmarts? Why?

Yea, they keep closing stores every year and at a rapid pace.

@Alex1976



I don't know why. It was like that when I moved to my hometown back in 1985, and things declined slowly after that. By the time I was done with high school (almost 25 years ago), 1 of them was closed for good. It wasn't until a couple of years ago that the others went, one by one.

They are dying because they are in bad debt and have been badly managed for years.

Sears had been losing money for a while due to poor management and merged with K-Mart which was still profiting despite most stores being ghost towns at that point, but shareholders made them keep the Sears management because K-Mart had more of an outward appearance of being in trouble than Sears did, so both have been tumbling into the abyss since

at least I've been told it's an absurd story like that

It's amazing how getting cocky and refusing to adapt can ruin a business.

Well, not really. It's more amazing that so many stupid people failed their way to the top to implode something so big.

Pretty much. Before our cities closed it was always empty and gave off a spooky vibe. There wasn't a single time I went there that there were more customers than employees.

My local one feels that way as well. I have been going there since the 90s and it feels like the 90s.

we still have both but a target is opening up near the sears.
