BUFORDGAWOLVES Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 My wife and girlfriend used to get their lingerie from both Sears and Penney's, when Victoria's Secrets doesn't have a sale on. Is that where you get your panties? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went there right before they cleaned everything out to pick up some t-shirts. Totally desolate; it looked like a damn North Korean department store. Most depressing thing I’ve ever seen.

Amazon coupled with not being able to adjust to changing times, coupled with the gutting of their traditional shopping base, the lower middle class to middle class.
