Full Tour of one of the LAST Sears stores still OPEN in the USA

Amazon alone didn’t kill Sears. The 132-year-old retailer played a big role in its own demise. Decades of mismanagement and poor decisions made Sears an afterthought to shoppers. Key among the problems was its decision to cut costs while competitors updated their stores and built up their digital businesses. In its heyday, Sears was the 800-pound gorilla that could crush smaller rivals. It was not only the largest retailer but also America’s largest employer. But by the 1990s, Sears started losing out to big box retailers. Walmart and Target offered lower prices and sold far more items, including groceries. At the same time, Sears’ hardware business, led by its Craftsman brand, lost ground to Home Depot. Most Sears stores couldn’t accommodate space for lumber.
