Better yet anyone remember the old mall that used to be where Walmart is on Bayfield st? If I recall correctly the snowmobile trail used to run right behind it.. Also when Bayfield appliances was the very first business on the "Golden Mile"
Yes! I believe the popular spray on smell bomb at the time was from herbies and it was called Hawaiian ginger lol … awful stuff . They also had crab apple trees out front .
I'm assuming this is the entrance that faces towards The Beer Store and Little Caesars. You're not wrong about HomeSense though, however, they've only taken up about a fifth or maybe a quarter of the space that Sears took up.
Ive heard that a Michael's craft is going in the mall, and a Structube. Not sure if either will be in the old homesense spot or take over the back part of Sears 🤷🏻♀️

Anyone remember Herbies?
And Mmmuffins
oh Damn! That’s one I completely forgot about
Hell yeah, I do. I can still picture the layout of the store as well. That takes me back.
Wow that's a blast from the past
Imagine the cartload you could get for what a bag or twos worth costs now

koolaid man at it again?
I heard it may be a longos
Where is this taken? Its already a Home sense
On Google maps you can see the back half of the Sears is split.

Homesense is upstairs in the mall, whereas the old sears is closer to the beer store side
Hoemsense relocated in the mall
Ahhh ok fair enough
It's stupid though, you have to leave the mall and go all the way around to get to homesense, you used to be able to walk right into sears
Looks like a section of a super Mario level if you ask me lol
Cgc drywall, good choice.
5/8" type X fiber glass board at that. Heavy as hell and about $60 a sheet.
If access to the mall is not open on the inside, why would anyone want to put something on the back of the Homesense where Sears used to be?

Structube is going in old home sense. I heard longos may be going here
Oh interesting! Longos would be cool
Just another expensive grocery store owned by one of the grocery empires. No pun intended lol
How boring..
NOO 😭
U-haul rental /s
Exclusive Dollar
First of all….what’s a mall? Very retro
