1. I don't understand all the negative comments made about Sears. I love Sears, shop there all the time and found that corporation strive toward customer satisfaction. The stores are clean and streamlined. . Cheap is not always the best. Good luck on the merger, WalMart needs the competition.

2. I'll take the best of both Sears and K-Mart ...and shop at Target.....love that Target Dog

3. I can't wait for the country to have more abandoned windowless concrete monstrosities with weed-infested empty parking lots. Go, capitalism!

---

4. I would like to see them become stronger together and an alternative to Walmart. Name: SearsMart? K-Sears? Slogan: "The low prices of K-mart, but less crappy stuff."

5. I can't wait for the giant blue light on top of the Sears Tower.

---

6. I'm thinking SeKars. Pronounced see-kars.

---

7. Who cares anyway? By the time this comment posts they could both be closed...I'm off to Wal-Mart.

8. tired + tired = very tired.

9. The modern retail landscape is the fault of every consumer who decided lower prices was more important than customer service or quality. Maybe the socioeconomic reality of the last thirty years is to blame.

10. Craftmen tools at Kmart? Martha Stewart at Sears? Could be good news, and I'm glad Kmart's coming to Chicago and Sears isn't leaving for MI. Go SearsMart! Down with WallyWorld!
