Our local Sears store is totally mismanaged and hires the dumbest workers in the world. Their clothing is crap, and except for their tools, nothing else is worth a thing. And now that they bought Orchard Supply Hardware, I can get the Craftsman tools there. Although, they've already brought down the quality of the OSH employees. Sears deserves what it gets, IMHO.
It's not a lot, but given the choice among KMart, WalMart and Sears, I choose Sears.
The Sears in Joplin closed its automotive shop about 2 years ago. They deserve to go away for their shoddy clothes, crummy displays and incompetent employees.
I can buy tires anywhere.
We're hounded to death in the appliance and lawn dept, but ignored elsewhere.
I just browse in the Petite Dept, which is upstairs, in the back and the size of a postage stamp. I never buy anything tho.
Someone needs to tell these people that polyester went out along time ago.
