Eddie you think Sears is your ally
But you've merely adopted the Sears. I was born in a Sears store. Molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, and even then it was only to retrieve carts from the parking lot.

I don't mean fully stocked, these are strange times, but stocked well enough so that it doesn't look like it's in the last weeks of a liquidation sale. How about the stores that fulfill a lot of web orders?
