K-Mart cuts out Video Games
Posted: February 22nd, 2015, 9:21 pm
I like many things about K-Mart. I'll often elect to go there over Target to pick up cat litter or the occasional item or two. I like how it's not crowded and I can wear pjs without worrying about running into anyone I know. I also like how it hasn't been remodeled in 30 years. I look up at the ceiling, the light fixtures and the paint on the wall & I feel like I've gone back in time.
The video game selection has been sparse for years. Still it's fun seeing old PS2 games marked for full price and knowing that there's no way it'll ever sell. K-Mart never seems to know what they're doing, but that's part of its charm. I've seen them put expensive Mario games on clearance while charging $20 more for Hannah Montana on the DS. Two months ago I bought some PSP games from them while every other retailer stopped carrying PSP games over a year ago.
I still shop at Target and other retailers, but I've always held a special fondness for K-Mart. I remember going there with my mom as a child. I remember eating in their cafeteria, I don't think Any K-Marts have had cafeterias since the 90's. I remember the bright turquoise and pink stripes on the walls I remember how so many people shopped there and the enthusiasm the employees and customers had. Now it's like a flea market and the employees are all angry.
I know K-Mart should've folded years ago, but I still liked shopping there. Now that they arent carrying video games anymore I think for me they are officially dead. I would've rather they just closed up shop then keep it open without video games.
