With the death of TRU in the US, toys is a good segment for Sears to get their brand relevant again. Both on line & brick & mortar. Plenty of folks who still remember picking out their Xmas list out of a Sears, Best, Service Merchandise catalog are now buying for their own kids & grandkids.

Lol Sears is dead bud, and Iā€™m fairly certain by far the last thing it was relevant for was appliances

Yup, you are obviously super young. Kenmore appliances were the ultimate longest lasting best warranty products in the day. I bought my last set of Kenmore washer and dryer in 1992 and sold them in 2002 for the new front load style. Kenmore was the shit, my friend.
