NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Kmart Corp. is acquiring Sears, Roebuck & Co. in an $11 billion merger that aims to merge the best of both brands and create a low-priced shopping haven in malls.

How could a s****y company like Kmart buy Sears? Not that Sears is great, but it's hardly in Kmarts league. I thought Kmart was bankrupt.

Hey, whatever it takes to bring Wal-Mart down a bit. Nothing quite like supporting Chinese suppliers who violate Fair Trade policies! When the last American television manufacturer tried to sue the Chinese, Wal-Mart sided with the Chinese. f*****g a******s (but oh they bring you low, low prices lol).

I went shopping at Walmart last night, bought a bunch of stuff, came out 30 bucks cheaper than Albertsons did for pretty much the same stuff.

Really for the price support WalMart and the Chinese or Target and the french or get raped on price... I'll support the Chinese, they do KungFu

I also think this is good as a counter-measure to the Walmart empire. That shit is way out of hand.

I bought some Christmas toys last year from Walmart's web site, because FAO, toyRus and KBee didn't have what I wanted. I felt really guilty about it, and sort of dirty. I would have happily payed a couple bucks more to buy from a better store.

Kmart took millions and millions and millions of stock $$ and said it was worthless and went bankrupt and told those stockholders to f**k right off, you aint getting shit.

kmart then gave new stock to businesses they owed money to.

kmart then waited a few years.


now they are buying sears.


doesnt that sound a bit illegal? stupid kmart.

Wal Mart is like the Chinese Trojan Horse or something f**k those guys. It's a cancer that is like cancer-crack or something... all of those middle and Southern americans can't stop going no matter what. It kills local small buisnesses when it moves it's city sized stores in to smaller towns. I hope they never get closer to me than they already are.
