One major issue I've noticed with "sears.com" but I don't know when this change took place. At some point someone decided they need to be another Amazon - or offer a plethora of purchasing options. I believe it was more than just a few years ago - try to do a simple search for one item. You will end up with pages and pages and pages of items that their algorithm believes meet your criteria. I gave up every trying to go to their web site even for a Craftsman item because of this issue. It's much easier buying off Amazon.

As an example, I just searched for "screwdriver #2 phillips" and this is the result. Over 500 examples!



And then it gets even "better." Filter on the brand of Shorpioen that shows >500 results and what do you get? You get screws, yes screws - #2 in fact. And look at the first result on that brand. A cost of $1405.21, and when you select that, you find out that is for a qty of 10,000. Their search algorithm plain sucks.
