Craftsman is the only thing keeping Sears alive ... they'd better not mess with it.

I know, let's mix crap with throw up. That'll make both better, right?

hopefully if the rest of sears crumbles to the ground, we will still have craftsman tools.

snap on are too expensive and there is no place to go and get tools, you have to wait for the rep to be able to come to you.

no good.

kmart made one of the biggest turnarounds ever. check their stock price and you'll see for yourself. ed lampert or whatever is a genius, in terms of kmart.. but i dont think sears is a wise investment.

he's NOT the next warren buffet

Kmart also owns Payless (or used to not sure now)

I think it's great idea. Sears also owns Orchard Supply Hardware (or used to not sure now).

Combined buying power will mean lower prices and higher profits.
