WEEK 33 – Columbus Kmart Closing, Set 6
Now that we’re on the way out of the store, it’s about time I finally tell the story of my attempted fixture purchase from here. I think I mentioned on my first stour from here that, if and when (okay, just “when” XD ) this Kmart would close, I wouldn’t mind trying to get my hands on the store's directory, which you’ll recall I was utterly fascinated by. On this visit, lo and behold, the fixture had a sale sticker on it and was priced for $50; a little much, but I’d learned by then that that’s probably a reasonable (or at least typical) price, so I was ready to jump on it. Our friendly cashier at the register did me the favor of getting the store manager, who was in charge of the fixture sale at this location, and he proceeded to walk over to the customer service desk to ring us up.
On our way over, just to clarify 100 percent that the directory would be coming along with the fixture – since that’s what I wanted, more so than the fixture itself, of course – I asked the manager just that. And to my disappointment, his originally cheery attitude faltered and then turned sour, and he said no. (cont.)

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 :)
