chippy49 I think that people hate Kmart because of the fact that they do not look like those better decorated Walmarts or Targets. I really believe that Kmart gets a raw deal. I just came from kmart and my husband told me, "you know we need to come here more often, we...

Waterwisdom @Waterwisdom (23) • United States 12 Aug 07

rbhdigit @rbhdigit (15) • United States 26 Jun 07
