I can't find the video for it, but there's a new Kmart commercial floating around with a grandma dressed in gangster clothing with sh*tty rap music in the background, complete with that dumb "throwing money by brushing off the top of a stack of dollars" gesture.

I feel dirty for having had to go to Kmart just yesterday to redeem a work clothes voucher...

Kmart has reached another new low. Time for them to get back to the olden days, when there were actually ads for SALES!? With deals listed on screen, without ghetto trash?

Nah, everybody goes to Walmart- you're fine as long as you avoid the first of the month. We have only one K-mart left in the entire state, and it is smack dab in the middle of the ghetto. The other K-Mart's left at least ten years ago. I have no idea how this one is still in existence (unless they were too afraid to come get it?). Ouch

The inside of that store looked waaayyy too clean to be the inside of a Kmart.

They must've rented a Target store after business hours for the video shoot.

Kmarts look like garbage dumps inside.

Might not be a blue light special, but looks like Grandma is looking to start a red light special of her own.

Every time I see that commercial I immediately turn the channel. I don't know why all of these commercials have the hip-hop and rap music in their commercials like it will entice the viewer to go to that store. I am black and it pisses me off because I don't understand what the purpose is. I think Kmart always made bad decisions concerning commercials and I guess it's because the stores are on their last leg. Just show me the product and get rid of the foolery and I will be fine. to Kmart!

We've been talking here for years about KMart being on its last leg.  That must be one helluva leg because, for some reason, they're still around.  

To me, they look like something out of the Soviet Union.  Just dreary.

All our local kmarts closed years ago. Closest one that I know about is 45 minutes away. I wish they would stop advertising in my area. I'll never go there anyway. Bad ads and a Walmart a mile away. Kmart can go screw.

The only one I can think of within a somewhat reasonable driving distance is the one down past Willowbrook Mall, just past Cutten Rd I believe, near the Champions area.  I haven't been that way in so long, however, I don't know if it's even still there.


I just did a store locator check, and none are within 50 miles of me so that answers that question LOL

That's not a thong.  Thongs don't have anything in the back but a string.  Wink
