    Kmart/Sears is suffering a slow, lingering death. They've been closing stores since the mid 90s.

    Good advice tho, mine isn't shutting down anytime soon tho. We have wal-mart..an K-mart, for that kind of stuff. One of each, so both do good business. Folks who hate walmart go to kmart, an the Kmart haters go to Walmart. A funny circle to me. Just like we have one home depot, one lowes(Just opened last summer) an about 6 Ace hardwares, an a couple small mom an pop joints.

    I will keep this post in mind tho if they ever shut down the one here! Good post for folks in a area with more then 1. It's why I love my sandbar..what few big chains we have, they are single store, or at most 2 to 3. Usually only the grocery stores. 2 Harris Teeters, an like 4 food lions.



    I miss my Wegmans.

    You got a lot of fixemup shops for living on a sandbar - in the midwest we got one ace hardware and a lowes if we want to drive.

    4barrel - never thought the midwest was smaller than a sandbar
