Interesting comment / observation. In the not to distant past, Sears at one time often was the "Downtown Anchor Store" in many small towns across America. Wonder if "Sears" will be able to recover from bankruptcy. Years ago before the actual real internet we know of today, they were kinda the internet of mail order goods. For many years it was both the Walmart and Amazon of its time.

Sears, the store that changed America, declares bankruptcy. ( 2 days ago)
