If there is a retail store "Hall Of Fame", I vote for Sears. In the early 50's, Sears Roebuck sold a car (Allstate), right in the store. That sort of broadens the conception of "general merchandise".
I can't think of another retail chain that has been so diversified for so long. Sears Roebuck/Sears has been a household name. With all the corporate buy outs I hope they leave the stores as is. Somehow seeing Craftsman tools sold in KMart makes me a bit sad.
