- It's sad to see Sears circling the drain. I grew up day dreaming with the Sears catalog and we use to buy nearly everything there--from appliances to clothes, from linens and housewares to tools and tires.
- Vermont will pay remote workers $10,000 to move there. Now that's an interesting idea!
- Work fast food and make $17 an hour? Wow!
- Apparently those old Trapper Keeper notebooks I used in high school are worth a lot of money these days. Who knew?
- Can you live off Amazon Prime? I'm thinking in the near future we won't even need to ever leave our homes, everything will just be brought to our door!

It seems lie the way commerce works is sort of circular. Small shops competed when Sears and Montgomery Wards started mail order, then that went away as shopping malls started up, then shopping malls and anchor stores start closing because of on-line. I wonder what's next? Let's face it-life evolves and it is hard transitions. Let's hope communities that relied on shopping and stores can survive with other ways people ive their lives now. It seems social places to gather-coffee shops, cafe's, art centers, are starting to have a surge. Maybe that will be the new main street in towns.
