Super Kmart Centers offer Kmart a long-term vehicle for growth. These stores present the ultimate shopping experience, combining a full assortment of fresh groceries with a broad selection of general merchandise found at traditional Kmart and Big Kmart stores.

Remember there was a thread about it. Someone was going to do something risky with their money and another person said "You could put it in Kmart, it would be just ask risky."

Kmart Big sell groceries

You realize your link also shows they already sell powertools as well?

And they have always carried Craftsmen.

Yeah, I brought it back up when my stock capped over 70, but cannot do so again now until the search feature is fixed.

There is a difference between the super K and the regular kmarts. Super K's have always sold power tools since i think 97

Have a guy in the church that is a assistant manager at the local KMart. He's filled me in on a lot. They have actually been doing rather well and making a comeback since selling the stores that were losing money. He told me about this possible merger a few months back. He said it was speculation and they didn't know for sure at the time if it would go through or not. Said that if it did go through it could open up the Craftsman and Kenmore lines to be sold in the local Kmart and some of the clothing lines in Kmart to be seen also in Sears. He mentioned several other things but those were the ones I seem to remember.

Buy low sell high. When Kmart switched their entire executives board and redid their long term buisness plan, I thought to myself "Well it can't go as bad as it has the last couple years.

Regular ones sell powertools as well. My Mom-in-law is a manager and I get a tidy discount on my sabersaws, blades, routers, bits, sawzalls, and drills I get there all the time.

Wow, you guys should cut DC a little slack. Heck, I was not aware that Kmart was doing well now. All I know is that they closed one store in my city and the other 2 are always pretty close to empty. Not to mention that Walmart is opening a 3rd store and it doesn't look good for Kfart here. But wow, that seems like a good deal to me. Perhaps it will help to keep Walmart from someday becoming the 800lb gorilla that doesn't have any competition so they charge high prices. Competition is always a good thing. :thumb:

Agreed....Kmart staying in business is in all of our best interests. They help to keep Wal-Mart Honest......Although, I dont care much for either place. They are both "ghetto" to me. Target is what I like.

Demonpenz 11-17-2004 05:26 PM

the target in springfield is the most ghetto thing i have ever seen
