At one point, Sears wasn’t just a department store that sold household appliances; it also sold full-on houses! Many of which are still standing in Maine.
Downtown Caribou will soon be the home to a new Sears Hometown Store.
Caribou city manager Austin Bleess said today the store will have its opening next month.
Some good news coming out of the Sears store closing at the Aroostook Centre Mall in Presque Isle; five full-time service technicians from the store are being hired on by VIP Tires & Service.
