Sears

On Sunday, the Sears store at Woodfield in Schaumberg closed their doors to customers for the very last time.

As Joe Dredge pointed out in his post yesterday, the last remaining Sears store in Illinois is closing. Their Schaumberg store, Illinois' last open Sears, is done in November.

Sears used to be the king of Chicago and Illinois, now it looks like the historic department store might be on its last legs.

For the company that started out as a watch company back in the 1880s, the clock has been ticking for quite a while on how long they'll be in business.

Javier Garcia, 22, was charged with terrorism early Sunday morning after allegedly plowing his speeding vehicle through an unprotected Sears entryway and straight into Woodfield Mall.

Even though billionaire Eddie Lampert won a bankruptcy auction after strengthening his bid in several days of negotiations with Sears' creditors, the store at CherryVale will shutter in March.

80 more Sears stores will be closing in 2019, including the store at CherryVale Mall.

With the latest round of bad news for Sears, the BBB suggests you make use of any gift cards you may have lying around.

That number may go even higher when the list of store closings is released later today.
