Thread regarding Kmart layoffs

The amount of discontinued merchandise is staggering

Assuming a miracle happens, and SHC somehow survive bankruptcy, what is Kmart going to sell?

I was doing gap elimination in auto/sports/DIY and pantry the other day and noticed that 95% of the merchandise was "discontinued" and missing order points.

We were also informed that after the holidays, we are moving electronics to a single quad and DVDs will no longer be sold. Appliances and mattresses are going away. DM said it looks like the new focus is homegoods and clothing... but with nothing to fill the space up with, what do we do with the empty spaces? Pantry is already only half-full, even with all the christmas popcorn tins.

We finally got milk/grocery deliveries back (via SuperValu) as well as Pepsi/Frito Lay vendors. Somebody finally paid the bill. Also received a ton of luggage which is filling a lot of seasonal right now. Seasonal is saddest I have ever seen it.

Our Pantry is really down too with people using all those points awarded on Black Friday. I have been stocking the coolers with 2 Liters of coke, seltzer, water. Our mattress dept is being added back in but electronics is already 2 quads and a DVD dump bin.
