Kmart and Sears to close 100+ stores

Mike I must agree with you on the bad management. I go to Sears to buy garage door openers all the time and every time I walk in the door there are three or four clerks standing around doing nothing. There pushy sales people run more sale off then they make! I have bought hundreds of openers from the same store over the years and every time they try to sell me the extended warranty and ask if I need it instauled. They can see right on the screen I buy one or two a month.

As far as scrapping from this I think one would have to bid and show insurance and such. I also think permission would have to come from the corporate level.



I hope they don't close my local Sears or Kmart. Kmart should be renamed as Clearancemart, most everything is on clearance all the time. But Kmart is Wally Worlds only competition any more around these parts.

Sorry about the off topic question here, but this has really got my curiosity up here. May I ask what do you do with all these garage door openers?

I had a door company for about 15 years. I closed down but I still have the same phone number, so the many happy customers still call me! Between Doors and AC I ended up becoming interested in scrapping! That's the story.
