The Last Day At The Last Super Kmart. Well, the day came and proved to be a challenging one. It was a sad day indeed. While I got to admire the inside of the store one last time, I knew once I exited the building, I would never see the inside as the Super Kmart ever again.
Thank you to everyone for giving us the opportunity to document, admire, and love your store. It means so much to so many people to be able to look back at the videos made here to see what we once had. So even though the Super K is gone, its memory will live on through our videos. Thank you again and best wishes with everything life has to offer you along the road ahead. Goodbye Super Kmart. Going to miss you.

Bitter-sweet vid. The coup de gras for Sears Holdings, Kmart, Land's End, etc., was and is: Eddie Lampert He runs ESL Investments he is by-no-means an entrepreneur, nor is his expertise even close to running a retail empire. He bought Sears, Kmart, Land's End, etc., years ago which he continues to run into the ground; however, truth-be-told some of the companies he bought were in decline, but not so close to failing as they are today. They still had a fighting chance, but with Eddie at the helm their future is very, very bleak unfortunately. Ramblings of an old fart and entrepreneur.

Great (but sad) Video! It's harder for me as a kid of the '70s and '80s... because everything I grew up with is rapidly disappearing! Malls, Arcades, Video rental stores, eat in Pizza places...and your favorite stores you grew up with. It might not be so sad if something better was coming in to take their place, but there isn't. Now Toys R Us is going away... I'm scared to see what is what in 10 years!!

I want to thank you for making this video. I worked at Kmart for 4 years. I closed the Austintown store and then came to the Super K to help them close. It is a real pleasure to see someone who actually cares about a store closing and the employees instead of the normal "you deserve to lose your job" kind of people. Thank you for doing your best to keep all of these store's memories on your channel. I really appreciate it and I'm sure all of my fellow co-workers feel the same. Keep it up.

You know how to capture the mood on that last day at the Super KMart. Great choices of music, it would be the score if they did a movie on the demise of Kmart/Sears. The humor touches like the fitting room selfies really helped with the meloncholy mood. Your You Tube comrades are family and you all work together to pay proper tribute to this store. And for me nice to see the cameo by the Wierdo at the beginning :)

I really enjoyed this store. Especially when it it was open 24 hours. I spent countless nights wondering this store. Just to get away from life. Being only 5 miles from me. It was easy to get to. Its sad to see it ago. Accounting the Parkman rd store closed. But now the Sears in the Eastwood mall is going to be the last standing sears corp store in the mahoning valley. Also the letters. The front sign by the road was painted over the morning of April 9th and the store letters were gone April 10th. I did write a letter to Joe bell of the cafaro corperation to see if anyone is planing to take over this property. I have yet to hear back. But I think it will be the Eastwood mall is very good on filling up all there stores. But thanks for the walk through Wallie. I couldn't make it. But I really wanted to meet you.

This brought back a lot of memories of our Super Kmart in Illinois. We only had it for 10 years, 1993-2003 but it brought a lot of new business to the community. I got my first job there when I was 16. It was open 24 hours there so we'd go any time, just to go. That Deli and that window design was exactly the same as ours.

Kmart really failed when it came to these Super Kmart stores, I honestly believe more locations would have been able to compete with stores such as Walmart and now Meijer if they had converted to this Super Center concept. Most "Big" Kmart stores had/have grocery stores or former grocery stores next door where they could have expanded. I used to buy a lot of food items from Kmart and still do when I make it over to the Clio Michigan Kmart just north of Flint which is the only store left within 30 miles of my home. Thank you for documenting these stores in your awesome videos despite how depressing it is for me, almost feel as if my childhood is dying.

My late father, Arnold H. Bachner, was on the Board of Directors of K-Mart, and he was Chairman of the Board and CEO of K-Mart's most profitable division, K-Mart Apparel, until his retirement in 1985. At that time, K-Mart was the second largest retail chain in the world, and they were making billions. When he retired, my father warned the Board that their real estate policies, corruption involving real estate, and their attempt to sell higher fashion clothes to working people while neglecting their basic products would ruin the company. He also warned the Board that their stores and technology were antiquated. Finally, he told them their customer service was declining rapidly. Sadly, he was absolutely right.

Rest in Peace Kmart Store Warren Ohio and all the other stores. You will forever be missed by all. To the Kmart Headquarters Staff you should be ashamed of what you caused these employees and what you did to all these customers including me. Your the one to blame for this whole issue.

Oh my god! I'm obsessed with Kmart. I visited 10 in southern California. Two have already closed. They're from like another dimension because it makes me wonder how they've survived this long. They're just there waiting patiently for their closing. I hate to say that because I do like shopping there and the only store I buy clothes from.

I remember the closing of the Hudson Bay store in the little town I grew up in, it really hit the town hard, as they even delivered your stuff that you bought there in a green Mercury half ton! They had bbq chicken every weekend, had a great meat counter, plus nice stuff for Christmas! You could even order stuff from a catalog, at the customer service, everything from appliances to furniture! Somebody from out of town bought it, then raised the prices on items in the store, plus no delivery! It went out of business, wonder why?

I had not walked into a Kmart for 20 years until last Friday. There is one still standing in my old neighborhood. So we drove up for 25 minutes and walked in. Brought back so many childhood memories. My parent were poor immigrants. I never ever got clothes from fancy department stores. Mom made my clothes and for back to school she always bought my back to school clothes, back pack, and school supplies from Kmart. One time I was really sick and she was there buying me medicine and bought me a Barbie from there. (All the times before I'd beg for toys and she never could because every last penny was accounted for bills and groceries. They never had credit cards) That was the only time I got a toy "just because". She had done some extra work tailoring clothes and decided to splurge because I was sick. Kmart signifies the tough times we had, but it got us through when we were in a pinch. So yes, when I walked through the store last week I was choking up inside from the rush of memories that just started flowing through my brain. Good memories and bad. With the retail apocalypse that's happening, it seems like every year the world I know is dying one store at a time.

All the Super Kmart stores in Australia were decommissioned back during 1991-1994, they did this by building a wall in the middle splitting the Super Kmart's into two separate independent stores with the department store side becoming a normal Kmart store and the grocery store side becoming a Coles supermarket. To this very day most of Australia's ex-Super Kmart's are still operating as independent Kmart and Coles stores, some have been heavily refurbished since the split and you wouldn't know they were an ex-Super Kmart while some still show signs of being a ex-Super Kmart. I live in Western Australia and all the ex-Super Kmart's in this state are all still operating as Kmart and Coles which are: Mandurah (South of Perth), Mirrabooka (North of Perth), Kalgoorlie (Eastern Regional) and Karratha (Northern Regional). I grew up in Mandurah and remember the opening of the Super Kmart there in 1983 and the nine years it operated before it was split during 1992. My first job was a casual employee at Kmart Mandurah in 1996 and the only areas that the Kmart and Coles employees jointly used were the huge staff lunch room, toilets, locker/change rooms which were all located up stairs, everything else had been fully split with dividing walls (back offices, stock rooms, loading docks etc) Kmart is currently Australia's number one discount department store business turning over huge profits due to a massive restructure and change in business model over the last 10 years which was proved very successful, it competes directly with Big W and Target. Coles is also a very successful grocery supermarket which competes with Woolworths, Aldi and IGA.

I need to get me one of those Attention Kmart Shoppers shirts (I need the one with the cat and cucumber on it 😂)- asked for one for Christmas a few years ago, my mom apparently looked, but I never got one (despite upon first seeing those, before i expressed the want- that they reminded her of me). A great video as always. Like I've said before, it's always awesome to know I'm not a lone Kmart enthusiast weirdo- and in a large part your videos, and my own memories inspire me to really document the decline of American retail, or capture the memories on camera while I can. Being at a closing Kmart is almost like going to a funeral... no matter how many you go to, it's always sad and a different vibe, ya know? Really wish the Super K concept was able to last longer... If I could I'd probably do all my shopping at Kmart. I really dislike shopping at Walmart and Target. It's enjoyable to shop at Kmart. Thank you, and thank you to the other Kmart enthusiasts who may read this comment, for being ridiculously awesome.

I have family from there and I've never once been in that Kmart. Not sure if I should be sad about that, or perhaps I'm just one of many people that not only doesn't care much to go to any store, but when I do it's definatly not a Kmart. Great video though. I wanted to make it up there to see this place before it closed but never did. That's why I went looking for a video on it for the last day it was open. Thank you.

Our former Kmart was designed like this, when was built was a Super K (Super Kmart) until they closed off the grocery area with curtin type walls then was changed to Big Kmart. I'm like you guys when I shopped at Knart I'd peek through which could see the deli counter & ect when store was closing you see the rest of store where the grocery area was. This is why I find these videos interesting.

GAH! 😭😭😭😭 Could NOT have done that. Ten seconds after the entrance, my soul BROKE. Haven't been in KMart of any kind in almost 35 years. Remember going in to buy deodorant. Came out with $122 in merch. Joyous time, that was, finding everything from t-shirts to books to diecast... excuse me. It's BLUBBERING TIME.

The Kmart in the video wasn't the last one . Our Super Kmart just closed two weeks ago. It was privately owned which they said kept it open longer. I used to buy most of my groceries there. It also until recently had a bank, beauty salon, portrait studio, and a Little Ceasers pizza. Pharmacy too. But for some reason they closed the automotive garage years ago. Things changed when Walmart came to town. It seems like everyone in Chillicothe ( Ohio ) thinks they have to shop there even thou we have other malls. Don't undestand it ???? I'll miss Kmart. ( it closed 11/--/2018 ). ----Tim C
