Sears screwed themselves. They could have easily become Amazon if the word "discount" had entered their vocabulary. I used to look at the Sears ad just to see how much I saved shopping elsewhere.

I seem to remember those exact pages from when I was between about 12-14 and my Grandmother would hand me the Sears catalog and say "Let me know what you want for Christmas, and maybe you'll get it."

I got a lot of toys and shirts, but never one of those girls.  :P
