This is to let you know that another K-Mart location this one in McMurray is closing their doors for good in October (Their last day is October 14) and this one was not formally announced in fact this closing was announced in a Observer Reporter article (After a employee likely tipped them off) and the article said that the employees we're notified the previous month.

I shopped there not long ago.

Frankly the place looked as if it had closed six months earlier
and someone had forgotten to tell the employees.

Some other facts about this soon to be shuttered Kmart location.

Pros

The location is easy to reach for many as it's located on a major road (U.S. Route 19).
It did sell some Schneider's Dairy products but the Giant Eagle nearby sells it too.

Cons

It was becoming more and more out of place due to the Demographics of the area around the store (Higher median incomes).
It becomes real bad when the Dollar Tree that's located next door to this particular location does better business (And it does have a frozen food selection too).


I would not be surprised at all if Target ever tries to move in to this location after this Kmart is gone.
