    Another great video. Been years since I been in this store. I like the choice of music and sears spots to cover up the in store music.

    I remember going to this Sears right before they closed, the area just seems so different now with it gone.

    I remember buying a jacket from sears once and I didn’t realize until I got home that the cashier had forgotten to take the security tag off of the sleeve. We went back with the receipt to have them remove it and the lady not only took the tag off, but she also gave me a full refund for some reason. I wasn’t expecting to walk back out with a free jacket.

    Eddie freaking sucks. The Sears 2 towns over is closing. The problem is, that same town is where the Bon Ton is HEADQUARTERED (well, one of them. They have 2, but it was founded here), plus they have 2 stores. Oh, and a TRU and BRU. York, PA is getting hit hard in the retail apocalypse of 2018.

    My Sears in Hermitage,Pennsylvania in the Shenango Valley Mall closed sometime around 2015. JcPenney is the only store remaining at the mall.

    The Sears at the Beaver Valley Mall were I live just down the road just became a Rural King store. The old Macy’s is going to be used as a U-Haul storage facility. You should come and see the new Rural King store and see how they changed inside. The Beaver Valley Mall is changing but is not as bad as some other malls.

    I like the Von Maur type music at the end. Anyway, I run out of words to describe the retail disaster going on. It's a dirty rotten shame. A major market like Pittsburgh won't have Sears anymore. They are wearing thin in the Chicago area as well, the home base for Sears. I don't know where the nearest KMart is anymore. I think the inevitable is going to happen. A bankrupsy judge would immediately say liquidate, but there is a due process. Sears will still exist as the hometown stores in smaller towns, so at least there will be some reminder of Sears.

    My grandmother was an infamous Sears shopper. By infamous I mean she would shop the clearance section, then peel the clearance tags off, but leave the regular price on the item, and then give it as a gift. 🤣🙈💁🏻‍♀️

    Man, there goes another Sears. One of the few remaining Sears in my state is the one at Mall of America that's one of the anchors there, and I'm willing to bet that it'll be closing within the next few years. It's pretty dead every time I go through it when I go to MOA.

    The fixture sale stickers are the same ones I see at Toys R Us meaning they've got the same liquidator. Liquidators are making tons of money right now emptying out all these businesses....

    • @mallaholicretailadventures
      @mallaholicretailadventures 6 років тому

      I think all of the liquidators use the same sign making companies. I would like to buy stock in such sign companies right now since they are doing well at the expense of the stores closing.

    One of the malls near me had a Sears converted to an At Home, but only half of the space. They divided it so the At Home is accessible from the parking lot, but not the mall, leaving that portion available for lease (and creating a dead wing in the mall.
    Dick’s Sporting Goods has also been popping up in indoor malls.

    "The Softer Side of Sears" was probably one of the last brilliant moves Sears had done with itself and its last real ha rah. It was a great ad campaign which helped boost sales, but it was its last brilliant move in my opinion.

    Hi Wallie,I loved the video as always.As I wrote and said to Anthony I find it good that all of you are documenting the closure of these stores.I am from Ireland but living in Germany and I find it depressing especially in America to see this happening what once were powerhouses in retail closing.I see the emotion in you guys.I think its terrible that they are allowed to be bought up by liquidation companies just to be taken apart and sold off instead of them trying to save a piece of history.In saying that I dont think that the internet and Amazon are the main blame,looking at alot of these stores that all of you document I ve come also to the conclusion that the majority havent been modernised.They look old and wheather it would be Sears,Macys or JCPenny they literally all have the same interior design.For the younger generation it isnt appealing .At the time were it really kicked off with E-commerce these companies lagged behind.Unfortunately its everywhere,there are chain stores in Germany,Ireland etc..that are under threat for the same reason.I hope to get over to the Ohio area next year so hopefully there will be some of these stores left.
    I also wrote to Anthony and told him that all the ToysRus in Germany and Austria are being bought by an Irish company(Smyths toys-Toymaster)As far as I know the name will be kept.As Toymaster has a big presense in the Uk they did not buy the UK wing.Anyway Wallie keep up the good work.all the best,Sean

    Nice touch to use the Sears adverts as soundtrack as you went around the store. It's sad to see another great retailer fading to black.

    • @WallieB26
      @WallieB26  6 років тому +1

      KD2NOA Edward Martz a lot if not all Sears Outlet stores are franchises. Meaning Sears Holdings doesnt run them. They shouldn't close right away but if Sears Holdings folds, I imagine these little stores will after so long.

      I recently read some Sears Outlets were closing. Also, I recall seeing one in Niles, IL close not long ago. Yep, the outlets mainly are franchised. Just also heard some of the Sears Hometown stores(also franchised) will soon be closing down.

    *I remember reading something recently, but dont know exact details... but it had to do with the current rate that Sears and Kmart are closing, that they'd all be gone by 2022. I could see it happening much sooner. We might just get a bomb dropped on us like Toys R Us and Bon Ton, and all remaining stores will just close up shop.*

    • @jackson5116
      @jackson5116 6 років тому +1

      Fast Eddie pumps in enough money into them to make sure they'll make it to 2020. He's got enough right now, and they've got about 900 total places between the two of them, so they're very likely to make it to 2020, but coming soon, they'll file bankruptcy.

    • @as6110
      @as6110 6 років тому

      Jack Son they're closing 70-100 stores quarterly. That's 300-400/year. They closed over 350 in 2017. They closed 166 stores between January and April and are closing like 70 more next month. They are hemorrhaging.

      Not yet anyway. They announce new store closures every 3 months or so. This round was delayed, but the next bunch will be announced in probably late August or early September. I keep watching for the store by my sister to close because every other Sears in a 30 mile radius has shut down.

      Bill Levins yes sir, that's the one. They tore down central park mall years ago and made it to what is now park north shopping center. I remember central park had that huge merry go round inside and I will never forget funtasia and the petland store. The sears at Ingram mall is still around.
