We just lost our Sears so that might have saved our JCP for now.

Most of these closings come from conservative communities.

Can’t help but wonder if these are the stores that were hit the hardest by the Gay Ad controversy of 2012?

The impact of online sales is going to have a major impact on low volume retail
box stores even more over time I’d guess.

They’re not closing the one in Monroe where my son buys his shorts, nor the one in Pineville where a couple of my friends work.

More indication that the Middle-class is being murdered in this country. Thank the Free Traitors for this.

There's no really good reason why "amazon.com" isn't "sears.com".

Sears had mail order catalogs over a hundred years ago. They simply forgot that customer's have choices. If you don't do everything possible to ensure that customers choose your business then your competitors will gain and you will lose.

My mother-in-law described how when she was a girl the family would order their supplies for winter from Sears. The entire order would arrive in the fall and could include any of the thousands of products that Sears sold.

Now when you go into one of their stores you have to wonder where the clerk is. It didn't have to be this way.
