Thread regarding Sears layoffs

In what fake reality is Guam part of the mainland?

Guam? Mainland? Say what?

If you drop the three Florida Keys locations from "mainland", there are only 22 mainland Kmarts left.

There are 26 mainland kmarts if you include the guam store.

The patient is on life support as the last of the vital organs are being harvested. Once that’s done, the plug will be pulled....not much longer now.

So once this is sold off all that remains is to close the remaining stores, sell the Hometown stores and then sell of the Kenmore, Kmart and Sears brands and websites. Should be all wrapped up this year. I

This explains all the suddenly appearing out of nowhere fake job listings in Sears Home Improvement

It’s about time they sell the service side!!! We make so much money for service and retail has put a bad taste in our customers mouth!!! We service all brands and all companies that sell appliances . It is so frustrating when your calling the customer and saying it’s sears service , no it’s A&E , wait transform hold co. Idk Who we Are as a service company!!! Stick to one name as a service company and will you just drop the sears home warranty and rename it.. You sell one of theses Ponzi plans and first thing that comes to mind to the customer is , I thought sears is going out of business. Of course like fools we protect it and say no where ok we’re service and we’re profitable!! blah blah blah!!

I am assuming (maybe wrongly) that the "store count" includes -both- chains.

They started with 89 which is close to 90. We are down to 69 stores so there must be a few more coming to get down to 65 (might even go down to 63 or 64 and round to 65) including 1 final Seritage property (assuming it’s a Sears that will close and not a Kmart).

Burying the lede:

"The company plans to permanently close some locations in the months ahead, bringing its total store count, now around 90, to about 65, according to a source familiar with the matter."
