More Sears Stores are Closing in 2017. Is Yakima on the List?

Another round of Sears and Kmart stores are slated to close in 2017.

Fortunately, most of the stores on the list are all east coast-based, but my heart did stop for a moment when I saw that one of the stores included on the list is based in Washington but it's Tacoma's Kmart location, not Sears.

Looks like Yakima is safe once again!
