This has been a long time in coming. Even when I was a kid in the 1970s, Sears didn’t have a good reputation for anything other than tools and appliances. You’d cringe if your mom was going to take you shopping for clothes as Sears.

I'd swear those jeans they sold would stop a .22 even after 12 washings, it was like wearing denim stove pipes.

Is that a real poncho or is that a Sears poncho?

One of the smart things sears did was have the candy and nut counter.

“Little Johnny, if you’re good while mommy is shopping you can get a bag of candy when we leave.”

What? You didn’t care for the latest hip fashions directly from the People’s Republic of China?
