Hi all:

     Did you hear that a great name is back in business? Ward's is back. I just read about it in the paper today.  Now, what store would you like to see revived?

     I have 4 stores I'd love to see back -- 1) Ames, 2) Bradlee's, 3) Mammouth Mart and 4) Popular Supermarkets.

Ward's. Service Merchandise. and Hechinger (hardware) are all back as online shops...are they anywhere close to the B&M stores? Not at all.

Yes, I remember hearing that Frank's is still in the biz, because it still owns many of their former locations. I'd love to see Woolworth and McAlpin's come back!

Caldor1999:

     I think you might see some 'names' back in business. I'd love to see Korvette's, G. Fox, Sage-Allen and Bradlee's come back. Service Merchandise is now a net only store.

I'd love for someone to revive Alpha Beta! I don't see that happening, but you never know!
