The other week Kmart announce the closing of hundreds of stores. The one in my little town is one of those. I am saddened by this mainly because I have sworn never to visit Wal-Mart and the K was where we went whenever we needed any of the type of stuff carried in discount department stores. Tonight we went into Kmart for something and the place was packed, there was a bigger crowd on hand than the weekend before Christmas. A big STORE CLOSING banner was hung over the entrance. ALL SALES FINAL posters covered the windows. Hastily printed 8-1/2 x 11 pieces of paper on the entrance doors proclaim, “Now hiring temporary help.” Inside everything was marked down 10%, just the beginning. I said, “Let’s wait until it is marked down 60%.” and we left.
Life of Brian
a proud part of the 90%
