I am not even sure our store is open any more. Going to try to get there Thursday.
A coworker works P/T at the Sears in Halifax so I hope she'll keep me updated on the liquidation status and discounts. I don't really need anything, but doesn't hurt to have a look around. During the Target liquidation, I didn't buy anything.
once those liquidators take over those prices are going through the roof. best to stay away and let this place die off quietly. imagine trying to return an item. scary.
This is going to be like Target.. Everything will go to regular prices and offered a 10% discount and the sheeple will flock to the stores buying everything they possibly can
The one in our city is in a mall that still had an empty Target store. Apparently walmart is moving in next year, but all we will have in our main mall is a very small Bay store and a brand new Walmart (I loathe walmart)
Closest malls after that are 45 minutes away lol.
I'm screwed.

Couldn't agree with you more @Tommycoupons .
Our sears closed a few months ago but towards the end they had crazy prices. Like $1.00 for a pair of shoes or 10 dresses for $10 or things like that. I bought some stuff a couple months before they closed and I got jeans for $5.00 each and shoes for like $3.00. Everything added up to over 90% off regular prices.
does sears get any money after the liquidators take over?

Oh I know what you mean. I didn't go towards the very end of our store here. I just saw some of the pics of prices on facebook. I went a few months before they closed because I really needed clothes and thought I might as well check. Even got an $80 point zero sweater for $9.00. More and more has come out since then on the bonuses for management and how they were treating employee's.
I went today, the first day of liquidation, and everything was listed as 20% off at my local store. I wanted to use up my sears gift cards before they change their minds about them. The parking lot was unusually full and there were cashier lineups but nothing too off the charts. Will see how this plays out with the discounts and how picked over the store gets over the next few weeks/months.
Any updates? Saw on tv some things were 20% off but seems kinda high to start..

I might pop in now and then to see if I can find household items, maybe kids clothes.
Sears will definitely be one less store for me to shop at in the US.
I already refuse to shop at Target in the US.

I find this curious that you say Walmart's planning to move into mall-space. Walmart's strategy is typically to move AWAY from the malls and build their own properties. That way they dont pay a lease to a property they don't own. And they don't have to be bound to follow any restrictions of the malls, their boards, and their politics.
Initially my plan was to buy something just to top up my Sears reward points ( but I even forget how much you need to spend to earn points now? )
It would only have been $10.00 off anyways, ( lowest reward ) but SOL on that front as I then discovered they stopped customers from earning points on June 22nd.
So my accumulated 1,921 points dies a natural death I guess?
Then my extended warranty fiasco. I renewed on June 1st , good till 2020....ha ha ! SOL again, the agreements are now null and void.
I have a small window of hope with the CC company that I charged the warranty fee to. I must apply with proof of the Sears agreement showing I paid it in full and " maybe " they will reimburse me. Fingers crossed!
My new plan is to flip the Sears store fronts the bird anytime I drive by any of them.
For many, many years I have shopped at 2 larger Walmart in malls.
they have both been around for about 20 years and so perhaps it was an earlier business model.
I wonder if they might be limited with construction in our area by greenbelt space.

1. avoid Sears stores
2. check out Brands Gone Wild/Closeout King etc for Sears merchandise
3. look at Dollarama/Dollar Tree etc for Sears merchandise
4. check at Amazon.ca for Sears merchandise, since Sears and Amazon are working together now

Yup! Woolco locations! Our Woolco changed to Walmart 23 years ago. Only reason I remember is because I was pregnant LOL!
It was a crazy place today
It reminded me very much of Target when it closed but with less staff.
10% off and 20% off. My plan was to stick with clearance items and things I was going to buy anyway.
I picked up a bunch of candles (sears brand jar candles and Yankee brand), shear pins for my snowblower and a soap dispenser.
Also picked up a big black roaster fir the same price Walmart had them last week.
The big deals were on display model furniture. Mattresses going at 75% off...but from the looks of them they've been display for a while (dirty).
There were also piles of items I never knew sears carried like pens and stationary.
Big ticket items still were only 10% off.
Ya I'm going to wait until Dec and it looks like the website has been completely taken down just a notice and store locations remain
Like I suspected
