When you realize just how old you are (I'm 41)... I remember going there as Hills and Zares (or Zales my ancient brain can't rember exactly) and if they didn't have what mom needed it was off to phar-mor we walk

Wasn't it Zayres? I don't remember one being at that location -- I only remember Hills -- but I think that was the name of the chain.

My mom was a Hills stores manager when I was little. Now it's a Roses. I miss Phar-Mor & Kmart too!

I'm old enough to remember when it was. These days, Walmart prefers Supercenters or their Neighborhood format places over spaces of this size in the middle too.
