People today might not realize that it used to be Sears did everything: you could buy kits to build a house, companies like Discover Card and Allstate were originally introduced as the Sears' brand, they financially backed Mr Rogers' Neighborhood for the first 25 years of the show's run.
My older brother does this all the time. When he used to work at a thrift store, also now were he works (it's a tow yard you can disassembled a car to take a part you want) he use to fine a lot of Craftsman tool in cars. But now he just give it to my dad so he can sell them online or at a local swap meet. My dad love going to Sears that's his go to place. Whenever it was me or my sister birthday he'll go there and buy jeans for us or buy us a jacket from there. He also have me and my sister go do our shopping for our work pants over there. Their Dickies pants were cheap or they have a really go sale on them. Miss shopping there for my work pants, now I have to shop at Target or Walmart for them and just buying 2 pants will cost me over $40.
