Every single one I went to was like a quarter the size.

How did they stay in business?

Jamesway was my closest Arcade back in the day.

I don't remember Kmart having that. They did have a resurant though..
And of coarse blue light specials.

They had everything you needed and was a place for people to hang out at the food court in the 90s.

I lived a few block away from the first Kmart location and that place was almost mythical back in the day. Whatever their owners did to fuck it up (probably sold the company to another struggling company) is a damn sin. The location is currently being torn down, and whenever i go to see my family out that way i drive by it. About a month ago i saw some of that 1970s wood wall paneling from the back room and nearly shed a tear. So much nostalgia.

Actually, K-Mart bought Sears. They kept the Sears name because it was much more valuable.

Still died

Look at you Mr. FancyPants. K-Mart was a special treat for us. We did Zayre.

Pretty much this. There were many areas that either didn't have a Target in the region, or had a mall that was too far for people. K-Mart was pretty much the go-to for that.

They were better back in the day.

Mismanagement starting in the 90s has led them to where they are today. Especially after they were bought by sears.

Kmart was always comparable to middle of nowhere superstore knockoffs imo

I never liked K-Mart. Significantly more expensive than Wal-Mart, but just as crappy.
