There used to be a K-Mart a few blocks from here. It was really handy to have around. I could usually find what I needed easily. Quick in and out. Parking lot not near as hazardous as the typical Wal Mart lot. Then all of the K-Marts around here closed up.

I hadn't been in a K-Mart in years. Then, last June, I happened upon a K-Mart in New Mexico, so I popped in just for the heck of it. It was totally a junk store. Third rate merchandise, and not much of it. Oh well .....

Sears has gone downhill too, but not near as bad as K-Mart. I must say, Sears is still pretty good at parts availability for my old Craftsman lawn equipment and stuff.

As far as batteries go, I stopped buying Die Hards years ago because they were made by Exide. I avoid those at all costs. Not sure who makes Die Hards now, but I noticed that some of them are hecho in Mexico.
