In two words; don't bother.
Popped in earlier today while out and about in The Village area and things were grim.
First and foremost the store has shrunk. The upstairs level is now gone, and you've only the ground and basement floors.
Detergent/laundry product is only about one and a half aisles with shelves practically empty. Often saw just one or two bottles of liquid per product and that was it, nothing else behind.
Now maybe being a Friday after Thanksgiving stock was low; but still....
Really no more of a selection than you'd find at local supermarket. In fact when you consider much of what was offer (detergents, fabric softeners, bleach, etc...) was K-Mart's house brand, and of course endless variations of liquid Tide, there wasn't much else bothering about.
Spied one lone bottle of Cheer liquid (blue bottle), but passed. Ditto for the white "free and clear" version. Did see a few bottles of the new Gain "Botanicals", and grabbed a bottle of the orange blossom scent. Figured for $11 bucks and change I just couldn't fail could I?
Standing at check-out line, you know that little tug? The voice like a conscientious governess reminding one "you don't need another bottle of any laundry product", "put it back, you have more than enough for the duration already"... So left the bottle on counter and walked out empty handed.
Have a sinking feeling this particular store isn't long for the world. Sears is circling the drain and indeed as other shops in area were quite busy with "Black Friday" shoppers, the place was rather empty. Am sure the new Target that opened a few blocks away isn't helping either.
