K*Mart: Bankrupt - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Sean Snow · 01-22-2002, 06:59 PM

K*Mart has filed for bankruptcy! Though I really don't care...it's to bad that people will lose their jobs, but K*Mart is just way too messy....mine has stuff from 1998 littered all over the floor, and it smells like a dirty diaper lol. Plus, they got rid of those Rosie O'Donald/Penny Marshall Commercials lol.

According to the News, Target & Wal*Mart have beat K*Mart to a pulp lol

That sucks but I never liked K*mart..

WAL*MART ROCKS!!!!!!

Agreed, it is bad the people will be loosing their jobs, especially now since the economy isn't too great. Of course, they may not loose their jobs immediately. I remember awhile back Phar-Mor filed for bankruptcy, but the Phar-Mor's by me didn't actually close until several years later.

But yes, K-Mart is not that great of a store. They kind of creep me out actually. All the ones I go to smell bad (though not like a dirty diaper....they always have like this sickeningly sweet/musty smell, like as if they are trying to mask some more horrible smell, lol) Anyway, and they're always kind of dirty and messy, making it difficult to negotiate the store and find things.

Wal-Mart ain't much better, but I can tolerate them more, plus they're so damn cheap I just can't resist. But Target is the bomb.

I don't like K-Mart's either. The one where I live is messy and it sucks. The traffic to get to K-mart's sucks too.

I feel bad for all the people who are going to lose their jobs, but I'm also on the list of K-Mart haters. K-Mart is the only major department store in my town and it is AWFUL!!!!!!!!!!! The store is messy and disorganized. The salepeople are rude, incompetent, and unhelpful. I avoid shopping there as much as possible, even if it means a 25 minute drive to the mall as opposed to a 5 minute drive to K-Mart.

GoldenFamilyTies · 01-22-2002, 07:39 PM

The K-Mart by me is a very good one, and I'm really good friends with the pharmacist there.

But this K-Mart gets good business so hopefully it won't go down.

To bad for the people who are going to lose their jobs but I HATE K-mart actually I hate Wal-Mart more.

Meg07945 · 01-22-2002, 08:52 PM

I agree, Walmart is awesome...oh wait, we don't have K-Marts or Targets around here. So it's all I know...once I went to a Target when I was at my grandma's house, but othere than that I've only been to Walmarts (am I deprived?!)

Max Whittaker · 01-22-2002, 10:20 PM

Well, all these K-Mart haters would explain a lot...

LOL!

Seems that most of the K*Mart's will stay open to somewhere in 2003...they've gotten a $2 million dollar loan.

I know one here has got to be closing....within 20 miles of me, there are three K*Marts!

Right on!!!! I love Target. Target's are a rich people's Wal-Mart (at least they seem that way to me.)

Our Wal-Mart is horrid. It's one of those stupid Super Wal-Mart's with the groceries and stuff and it's just awful. The way some people here feel about K-Mart, I feel about Wal-Mart. I'd much rather go to K-Mart. I fact, I get my pictures developed there sometimes.

I guess you got a defected Wal*Mart there...thinking of returning it? Or have you sent your $50.00 rebate in to Zurich already? LOL Sorry...I don't even get that....I'll go back into my hole.
