Kmart????

Post by Marty.A » Sun Feb 05, 2017 9:48 am

Popped in to my local Kmart in Keilor to get some of the double sided clear tackle boxes which retail for $7 and are $17 at BCF and I was shocked to see the Tackle section has been depleted to the point of not even worth checking out. I made a inquiry as when they might do a re-stock but the person in charge said there are no plans to do that anytime soon. Was wondering if all Kmart's are going this way and if anyone knows if their local Kmart still has the double sided tackle boxes still for sale preferably in the western or northern suburbs.

That's odd. They've definitely cut down but my Werribee Plaza Kmart wasn't looking that depleted.

Depends on location. Rosebud did similar 12mnths ago, but must have noticed a loss in sales, as within a cpl of months they had increased the stock and range back to what it used to be. Frankston, still had only a small selection in store though.

Werribee isn't that far from me so might give them a call as those tackle boxes are a bargain at $7 if they have some I'll grab a few more for sure.

I'd say it's just that Kmart, maybe they had some issues getting resupplied this week or something.

Whilst you're down here, you might as well try the Point Cook K-mart too.

Kmart burwood fishing section is also half empty. Kmart knox also cut down their inventories.

BigW in my area removed their fishing sections.
