the one card for the many sides of Sears
Here’s a close-up of the clip part of my clipboard, which obviously is the main reason I bought the thing. Unfortunately with the way the timing for this photoseries has worked out, I still have yet to post my image of the fixture sale area (I was hoping to be able to link back to it here as a reference, rather than uploading this beforehand), but it will be going up on Saturday. Long story short, though, there was an employee stationed at the fixture sales area, pricing items on the spot (not the conventional way of doing things, from what I’ve seen online, but I must admit my Memphis Kmart fixture sale purchase was also priced on the spot). I was hoping for something to remember the store by, particularly with the Sears logo on it, that was also a manageable size (the smaller the better, given all my other memorabilia isn’t exactly tiny!) and, ideally, a cheap price to boot. Upon spotting this clipboard, all of my major stipulations were met, so I didn’t even dig any further – I just proceeded to take it to the cashier to find out if I would luck out in the cheapness department, too. And thankfully, I absolutely did! She charged me a whopping 50 cents for this thing.
So, to recap – I was able to rid KSears of a clipboard for 50 cents at the closing Memphis Sears, and two shelf signs for 20 cents each at the closing Memphis Kmart. Considering some other fixture purchases put me out those figures in whole dollars, I’m a happy camper :) (I just hope “Rita” is okay with me owning what was quite clearly her clipboard, haha!)

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
