I miss those Sears outlets, mere kiosk windows on the sides of warehouses where you pick up your catalogue selections.

If Sears could have held on for just a bit and gotten on that Internet ordering wave, its presence in every town across 5 time zones would give it a massive head start.

Maybe they woulda had to up-armour the wickets like a NJ white castle drive-through but even a "go pick it up" workflow would have been great.
