Sears/Kmart isn't going to be around much longer. I know we've been saying it for years, but I really think within a couple years we'll be hearing about the two brands disappearing for good.
When's the last time anyone here went to Sears and bought something.

That is my point. The catalogue companies just had to build a website and advertise it to compete. But pretty much they all got beat out by new companies starting from scratch that had to build a distribution network from ground up.
My purchases from Sears in 2016:When's the last time anyone here went to Sears and bought something.
Whenever I go into I get that same dread as I do when walking into a Radio Shack.
the unlimited lifetime warranty on Craftsman hand tools made in the U.S.a hallmark of the brand for generationswill be kept in place.
Actually went to the store and bought something? 2011. I bought a mattress online from them last year.When's the last time anyone here went to Sears and bought something.

I bought some Dremel bits, hobby knife blades, and a new set of screwdrivers about... 5 months ago?When's the last time anyone here went to Sears and bought something.

Yes.Does Sears own Die-Hard batteries too?
Seriously, this looks like a last ditch effort to delay the inevitable.But that was their only redeeming quality... ?
Sorry but Sears can take off. Feels so outdated & old fashioned being in there. And any Sears I've gone into you've got holier-than-thou staff that have no right to be acting like that. You work at Sears, not Saks. I've had nothing but poor customer service experiences at Sears over the years. Same with Future Shop, and they went away too.

Wow what Sears is this? Every Sears I've been to the staff looks dejected and broken.
You didn't know that? The only places I've seen Craftsman Tools are Sears, Kmart, Ace, and maybe a Home Depot or two. Craftsman ads always have the same voice actor as the current Sears ads, and usually the same production style and music.today i learned crafstman was owned by sears.
You can get it other places, but just not often. It seems almost like they have store by store contracts to sell at other retailers.You can't get craftsman at walmart or home depot??
Swear I have craftsman stuff, but haven't been to a sears in literally years.
Wow, Sears sold it for pennies. $900M isn't much for an established brand.
Lampert has done absolutely nothing to turn around Kmart/Sears. Selling off brands. I guess he got his numbers out of the company when he bought them and is just milking them dry now before they close in a decade (probably 5 years actually)
One of the store closings is in my hometown mall. That place has been dying for a decade and this will probably be the final nail in the coffin.
This right here, I cannot believe the board hasn't tried to remove him and what he's doing isn't considered illegal. He really has fucked over this company and isn't doing anything to make them competitive. I still find myself going into Sears for kids clothing which is dirt cheap, tools, and we bought most of our appliances from their outlets which are a huge bargain. It sucks to see them suffer like this with a leader who isn't there to see the company succeed.
