End of an Era: Last New Jersey Sears Offers Jaw-Dropping Discounts Before Closure
As the final countdown begins, Sears is preparing to shutter its last remaining location in New Jersey come Sunday, March 3rd. This closure marks a significant milestone, leaving the iconic department store chain with just 11 stores across the mainland United States.
Nestled within Jersey City’s bustling Newport Mall, this closing establishment holds a special significance as the sole Sears destination catering to New York City residents. However, with its impending closure, NYC shoppers will now need to journey approximately 227 miles to Massachusetts to access the nearest Sears outlet.
For over three decades, Sears has stood as the cornerstone of Newport Mall, having served as its anchor store since its inauguration in 1987. Its departure marks the end of an era for both the mall and the surrounding community.
The news of Sears’ departure from Newport Mall was conveyed to the public through a somber announcement on the store’s official Facebook page. In the post, Sears revealed plans for a final clearance sale, offering discounts ranging from 25% to a staggering 75% on all merchandise.
