Sears as the new Canadian dept store?

[Libby]

Anyone else notice the radio adverts suggesting that Sears is to become the new Canadian family dept store?

They cite that with the closing of Zellers, they are now carrying some of the same big name brands that Zellers used to thus making them the 'go to' place to shop. Um no, Sears does not and will not be carrying household cleaning supplies and items as well as pharmacy items.

To me, Zellers and Sears are two different classes of shopping. Thats like saying Target and Sears are the same for shopping. Uh, no.

Anyone else hear these ad's across the country yet?

I haven't heard that...but I hate sears. Bring on target!

I didn't hear that but the stores that will not be opening as Target have been sold off.The Zellers in Woodstock ontario is said to be changing to The Bay,but that is just speculation through the local newspaper.It is certain that we won't be getting Target,which is disappointing.

I didn't here it either...but then we don't have a Zellers here...or a sears...I don't care for sears myself...but Target would be cool.
