No more Sears

It was announced on Thursday that the last remaining Sears store in my state - Delaware would be closing in April. Now there won't be any Sears or Kmart stores in Delaware. I didn't shop in Sears very much but all my kitchen appliances are Kenmore and I really like them.

No, I didn't shop there much either. But I'll bet many of our parents did and maybe out of a catalogue. Sad experiencing the death of a once iconic institution.

Very sad, Sears was a well-known brand/store that families could depend on

Our local Sears store closed last year. It was a huge standalone store (I’m wondering what will go in that empty building now). I’m not sure how long it had been there but at least over 50 years. I remember when it even had a lunch counter and candy counter in the store. It was sad watching it slowly die. The last couple years there were so few sales associates that I couldn’t find anyone to check out and everything seemed in disarray. It was like they weren’t even trying to be an inviting store anymore.

Will miss them. They make the best washer/dryers. My Sears Kenmore is 26 years old and still working. Only part we had to replace was a knob.

@ninjawife Your title is misleading. It would be nice if you corrected it.

There are still Sears stores...just none in Delaware.

We still have one in our town. It is small, always has been. Mainly carries appliances and yard equipment.

I really miss the big one in the mall thats about an hour away. I liked to shop there.

@esmerelda I agree! I thought that it was all Sears stores!

I miss the Sears store that was nearby. I liked being able to buy and try on Land's End clothes there.

they have announced three more closings in maryland.

we still have some left that we can reach fairly easily.

it is sad though.....i remember the sears catalogs and doing quite a bit of back to school shopping at sears when i was growing up.
