Kmart 
3760 E Sunset Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89120

On June 30th, I made my way down to a Kmart Closing sale which is one of the Ugliest Kmart's i had visited. The store was very dark and was way to Overwhelming (more on that later). I did do some research about this Kmart. 
Construction started in 1988, When the store opened in 1993 it feature a KCafe Cart Right upfront. In 2004, Little Caesars opened inside the Former KCafe. The store did get a lot of business due to the Pizza Cafe till 2009 when Little Caesars opened there own store in the same center, which resulted The Cafe Cart to close and moved into the Garden Center storage.  Upon pulling into the center there were signs all over stating the store is closing. I decided to turn down a alley street and come back up to take a picture of the center and the signs.

One of the 10 closing signs this Kmart has. 




This Kmart does have a Rare Shape. Instead of putting the sign where the closing sign is they put it on the side of the building. (Note this used to be a Big K) 

Walking up to the store.




Note to customers: NO NEW LAYWAYS or RETURNS/Exchanges (during checkout a employee was doing a refund for a customer while i was waiting in line)

Stright back is the Electronic Section. Left women clothing. Right Cash registers. (Now do you see what i mean by dark)

I know i said it already, overwhelming. 

Here I'm standing in the baby department looking straight at the Entrance.

More Men Clothing (I still can't get over how
 
Kmart let there stores decline with little lighting).

Stright to the Left is where the ex-pharmacy is.

If you look closely at the checkouts, Thats where the old KCafe was.

Sign stating the Pharmacy has closed and prescriptions has been transferred across the street as well as the Pharmacy employees to CVS.

Thats all i have for now. Stay tune for more.

Big Kmart
2671 N Las Vegas Blvd, North Las Vegas, NV 89030

A while back I Said to myself that i want to make it around to every Sears/Kmart store in Las Vegas. Well now its time. I made my way down to a Kmart thats close to Downtown Las Vegas (about 5 minutes North from Famous Fremont Street). As I pulled into the parking lot I did notice something different From the Road Sign and the main building, but more on that later.

Excuse the Firework stand. 

It made me wonder why they even bother taking the big sign down the building as the street sign still states the Big K.
I was getting excited to see whats inshore for me when i walk into this kmart. After parking and grabbing a shopping cart. I Figure i would get some items that was on my list of needs.

Lets head inside:
immediately upon walking into the store you are greated by a Tent with 4th of July Supplies.
Girl Clothing here on the Left 

The tent i was talking about.

Turning left when walking from the entrance you are greeted with Jewery (not in picture), clothing & baby.

Looking back from Baby to the checkouts

An employee told me that this area used be the KCafe but not anymore. I did find it odd that kmart put a cafe in the middle of a store. 

In this photo i was standing at the far right back of the store.
 
I do have to say this is something i never had seen in a kmart. Maybe i did but i usually don't see it. 


Laundry with fruit (lol)



Paper products 



Grocery aisles 


Former Garden Center 



I used to love their pharmacies but after many problems with using my free $10 i decided to go to cvs. Im sorry but its just easier.




Thats all i have for photos. Upon check out let me just say, I was impressed to see 4 out of 6 checkout lanes open with no long lines. Only if Kmart/Sears saw this store, this would most likely take them out of closing ANY MORE STORES!!! The staff was friendly too and seem to like there job. I will differently come back to this kmart if I'm in the area. Stay tune for the next blog.
