10. The bottled water I tried to buy was EXPIRED. How does that happen?
9. The audio system playlist still includes songs by Donny & Marie, and, brace yourself, Barry
Manilow.
8. They are fundamentally opposed to having more than one check-out line open at a time.
7. Employees who staff aforementioned registers still do manual price ckecks. Badly. On
shampoo.
6. A shopping cart with only 3 wheels is, well, useless.
5. There was nearly a cat-fight at the jewelry counter over the 70% off 14K gold-over-sterling
silver and semi-precious stone babbles.
4. They actually sell maternity shirts (In a weak moment-I was looking for my sister) that say
things like, "now showing "(on a theater marquis sign), "bellilicious," and my personal
favorite, "baby phat."
3. They still support Jacqueln Smith's delusional fantasy that she is a fashion designer by
offering her clothing line to the public. Hope springs eternal.
2. I actually saw someone trying on an adult Halloween coustume in the aisle. With spousal
encouragement....as in "yeah, baby, I like them daisy dukes. Y'ont me to be Uncle Jesse?"

that was entirely too funny! i clearly laughed out loud several times. we don't have a k-mart here any longer, but i remember passing the clearance sale signs every other sunday as i traveled to my apt in the lc. so did they entice you in to buy expired goods with numerous "last chance" sale signs positioned all along sale rd? i often found those tempting until i went in once and got the feeling that the rapture happened and we were left behind. it's like a ghost town in there.
I was just tired and it was closer than Wal-Mart. What a mistake....
Am I the only person that is technologically challenged? I can't get this ipod thing to work....uhhh
well i'm not technologically challenged but i am behind the times. don't have an ipod. i still have a cd boom box that has 2 cassette players! i also don't have tivo or a dvr. i've decided taping with the vhs tapes is too much trouble and don't do it anymore so that means i hope my mom tivo'd stuff i missed or if it's on abc i watch it online. speaking of which, this is your solution to not getting network tv. you can watch grey's anatomy online. right now there's the season premiere and last week's show. i'm not sure how long they will stay up there.
kmart sucks. always has. always will. but, they were better about remembering the "little man"--the mom and pop shops--and didn't move into small towns and take away business from everyone like wal-mart did. i shant go any further, but i'm just saying.
