And Sears is on death watch
There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

I did too. That used to be one of the places our family would meet for lunch.

Once the paying customers are gone so is the mall.

Guy who bought it ran it down, it was fine until he came along. Tore it up claiming to be remodeling and stopped halfway though the process. Half the lighting was gone leaving large chunks of it in the dark, so tenants started leaving. He kept claiming he was short of money but it came out in the news he wasn't cashing the tenant rent checks and then tried to evict them for not paying. I suspected he was running the tenants out to sell the property to some big name chain and sure enough here came Walmart and Lowes. Target said screw it and already built a new store next door.

When Jmall went on a TARC route for multiple times a day, that's when it went to Hell.
Sad but true.

I went to the one in Middletown this morning. They had a bunch of 22 ammo at the customer service desk. Most of it was 50rd boxes of cci and remington. They had a couple 300 Rd boxes of cci for 24.99. I picked up 2 boxes of cci quiet for 2.99 each. Gun prices were higher than most local gun shops and the selection wasnt great. Tons of people were out this morning.

That's what I thought. Not bad prices but not great either.

I bought a pair of Carhart insulated/waterproof gloves marked $38.99. I looked at my receipt later and they charged me $4.99.

I called and told the manager, but he didn't seem that concerned.

Ammo prices were decent and guns were a little high.

Went to the one by Jefferson mall. Nice selection. Picked up some tent stakes and straps for my game camera's. You need to watch their sale flyer for deals. They still had 22 ammo at the service desk, but didn't see a price.

My Bride and kiddo and I went to the one in Middletown this afternoon. I meant to just look. I swear I did. I ended up buying 3 pair of 5.11 pants, boots for my son, carrhart hooded coat for my son, UL sweats for my Bride. I was pleased with the prices and even my wife felt we got a good deal. I didn't even look at the firearms or ammo for fear of finding something I couldn't go home without.
Bottom line: I like it so far.
Dicks are just that!

I was at the same store a few hours ago and employees told me it was all sold out. The usual, every morning deal. Nice store. 10 dollar new 50 cal ammo cans is pretty cool
