Anyone remember Montgomery Ward? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I remember it. They all closed in either 1999 or 2000. I went to one TWICE and it was in the Southridge Mall in Des Moines. The only thing I ever bought there was a Pokemon Pikachu (Sing the song i can't remember it lol) for around like 4 bucks it was 80% of the regular price (which was 20 bucks) but an eighth grader ruined it lol but oh well. I got another one for like five bucks when they were clearancing.

Anyways....Do you remember ever going to Montgomery Ward?

I saw one in the Westdale Mall in Cedar Rapids on my BPA trip. It looked as if it were open and everything (the auto centre was open....weird.) but it wasn't

Here's a pic of what it looked like in the mall!

Nate! Dude! Please!
Seriously man, you need to get out more. Go to some bars or clubs, find yourself a boyfriend, join some organisations - anything! Stop hanging around in malls and taking photographs of the stores. It's just wrong!

I thought a few stores were still open...now known as "Wards"

Ours just closed not too long ago...they like bulldozed it.

My dad used to take me in there to buy school clothes. I hated it!

Kristina · 03-01-2003, 05:22 PM

ugh yes, we never went back there after one EVIL incedent. Although they turned it into a 'Wards' and it's still open.

Some few "Wards" are still open- but they don't really sell much apparel. They mostly focus on selling furniture, and appliances.
