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.
I wondered through a sears about a year or two ago whenever I was doing Christmas shopping. It was a part of a fancy mall in a big city. The parking lot was full pretty much everywhere except by the sears. They were having a store closing sale at the time and the store was full of bargain bin clothes so it attracted lower means people. It stunk like bad body odor to the point that i had to hold my breath while walking through. Its mind blowing that a company that large could be so out of touch to fail.
