Somewhere recently, I saw there was an attempt to return to the places where Sears stores were closed with independently operated Sears Franchise stores.
I’m not exactly sure what these mom and pop stores would sell, but it would be a counter to the online purchasing trend.
“I’m not exactly sure what these mom and pop stores would sell”
That’s the billion dollar question. Their brand has been catalogs, appliances, tools, toys...once upon a time they even sold decent clothes.
Decent clothes at a fair price. I like that concept. I’ve been shopping on lot lately but I’ve yet to find a reliable store to buy clothes online. Sounds like a market that needs to be exploited.
