Re: Sears Bakery/Deli/Cafe (1990)

I saw this a while back in an article. I believe this idea started in 1988 with a Chicago location in Woodfield Shopping Center. Look up Cattleguard, Inc on this subject, as I believe they were involved. Formerly "The French Baker"? Ill look in my notes...

Re: A&P stores in Maine in 1990s

The site has some photo...

Re: Comprehensive list of Kmart locations

This is awesome!! Thank you for this. I'll have to go into my notes, but I believe Chalmette, LA was a Barker's Department Store before being a K-Mart. Some of the other New Orleans locations could be as well. Thanks again.
