Sears announced another wave of store closures by this spring, topping the list to 150 stores. Sears Holdings will now close 108 Kmart's, and 42 Sears stores by April. Yesterday's announcement was added to a previous list of closures announced in late December, on considering about 30 stores of this total.
I instantly thought of the song "Sunday Bloody Sunday" by U2, as the song starts out with Bono singing "I can't believe the news today...". I couldn't believe the news of Kmart closing MORE stores and Macy's closing stores, all announced the same day, many of which I have shopped at for years, and love very much.
Here is my post from late December as Sears announced 28 store closures, several more added to the list before New Years.
Again, all of these stores are going to close by spring (late March/ early April), as the liquidation sales start at the end of this week. I am very certain this will not be the last list of stores set to close this year, as Sears dug a hole far too deep for any alpinist to ever climb out.
Today, Sears announced the sale of Craftsman Tools to Stanley Black & Decker for 900 million, not enough to even make a dent in Sears debt, so what does the chain have left to stand out from the rest?
Here is the full list of stores provided by Business Insider:
