Today was the first time I returned to the Kmart since mentioning it in the
post below. As you can see, it's been almost a year. I haven't had any
reason to go in, nor any inclination, even though I drive right past fairly
often.

The changes have of course been completed. There's a new grocery section,
taking up about a third of the space the old one had. The rest of that side
of the store is now a Sears Clearance Center. That's mostly major
appliances, and no one was in there. Very few people were anywhere in the
store when I was there. Maybe 10:30 on a Tuesday morning is a particularly
"off" time? Trader Joe's (same shopping center, just a couple of doors away)
was busy enough that I stood on a short line to check out.

The Super Kmart located at 10405 S Eastern Ave. is in the process of closing
it's supermarket department. Most of the food which was there is already
gone, a lot of what remains is on sale, 30-50% off.

We do have a place in Salem. They don't have a butcher, but all the
meats come from local independent farms and is far superior to what
you find in the other stores. However, you're right, it is quite
expensive. My wife works at this store and gets the meat at half price
the day it is marked to expire. She gets it free the day after
expiration!

Here in Atlanta we have Publix grocery stores with Sun Trust banks
inside them. Maybe someday Vegas will have that. Ronald Emerson. Is it
June yet?
