Only TWO Kmart Stores Left in the US, Let's Explore One! | Checking Out the Bridgehampton, NY Kmart
As of Spring 2024 there are only 2 Kmart stores left in the continental United States, located in Bridgehampton, New York and Miami, Florida. In today's adventure, we're exploring the Bridgehampton store and document what I'm sure will be a fully closed retail chain in the continental US in the coming years. Let's check it out!

What are you talking about less drama than Walmart? Kmart was the kings of drama! Better basic than target? If you were lucky to find some decent basics at Kmart, it was going to cost you more than Walmart & target! Kmart hadn’t been good since the early 2000’s before they started closing! Look at their website right now & you won’t find half of what you are actually looking for! Ownership is what cause Kmart to be the drama kings & it’s why Kmart is a once was company!

One of my favorite Aunts worked for K-Mart managing the sporting goods section. What a treat when I'd take my wife and two sons to see her and go to the snack bar and have a hot dog, a cheese pretzel, nachos, soda, and even meals. It was like a family picnic. My wife is now an EX, my sons have moved on and my aunt passed away from brain cancer. And even K-Mart is gone. All I have is the memories.

"Tried them on", put his old shoes back in the box, and walked out the store. Young 90's me was appalled. 😂 One day you're at the Kmart, one day you're resting peacefully forever.

I miss Kmart. I used to work for them years ago. The company has been going downhill since Eddie took over. We weren’t in great shape before he took over but we were still salvageable but instead he deliberately made it worse. He only wanted the stores for its real estate to sell, lease, or have land developers rebuild something on the land Kmart was on. Now it’s in ruins and out of business. He’s only keeping this store open till all the inventory is depleted more than likely. It’s just a matter of time before this one closes soon. So sad Kmart is out of business 😔

@@terrylovelace9077 Those dates are not expiration dates. They are sell by dates or used by dates which doesn't mean the food is going to be bad for you. If the food is properly stored there's no reason for it to make you sick. However nature is a beast and it doesn't matter if the food is 3 years old, or 2 days old. You can still get sick if there's bacteria in it. Old food or new food. Nature doesn't care how old the food is.

Thank you for the nostalgia trip. I lost my local KMart in 2018. The last thing I bought from there was my PlayStation 4. I'll never forget accompanying my grandma to Kmart on the weekends while she waited at the restaurant for one Blue Light Special after another. She really had a knack for getting me excited about it. Songs I heard: No Scrubs- TLC Uptown Girl- Billy Joel
Maybe it was the calming music you put in, or maybe this was actually one of the most pleasant Kmart videos I've seen. I enjoyed the walkthrough!
That poster section looks like it hasn't been updated since 2011 😂 also the lady at the end sounds like Janine from Ghostbusters

I 😅was born in 1963 and Kmart came to Appleton, Wis. sometime in 1968. I grew up with Kmart- my parents took me shopping there a lot throughout the 1970s. Kmart came my home town of Kimberly, Wis in 1982 and was open for maybe 15 years. Kimberly is a suburb of Appleton. It has been sad to see the decline of Kmart. Although some of the things Kmart sold were sometimes not of the highest quality, Kmart was better at customer service than is Walmart today.

Not just that but also the last full-size Kmart in the continental US. The one in Miami had to downsize as another tenant was going to take over the lease. There are also 4 other Kmarts in US territories.
When I was in highschool in the early 1990s, the popular insult going around my school was "You got your clothes at K-Mart". Ironically, I'm sure some of these same students later on ended up buying their clothes from K-Mart. The one near me where I was growing up in PA looked very dumpy, but the one in Penn Station in NYC looked real nice, no different from Target.

I still got my 1970's KMART boxfan & its still going strong & built like a tank compared to new modern ones that fail after a few years
Back in the 70's and 80's, Kmart was my mother's favorite store. We used to go in there all the time. It was sad they declined so rapidly
The expensive luggage sets, big appliances, five hundred dollar patio sets, and La-Z-Boy equivalent furniture is pretty much why Kmart went under. I worked for them for several years and I saw the decline happen firsthand. They basically did away with or downsized everything that made a profit (lawnmowers/trimmers, tools and hardware, toys, video games, men's apparel) and loaded the store with things nobody was goin to Kmart to buy. Our store at one time made so much profit we kept THREE surrounding Kmarts open due to how much we were bringing in, but one by one those stores closed as we lost more and more customers to Walmart because nobody could find the things they needed at Kmart so they stopped coming in at all. It's like they were determined to make each store a mini-Sears without caring that the market just was not there for that.
I miss Kmart! My family and I did so much shopping at the Super Kmart in the county seat, and you could find everything you needed there! A lot of the small items in my holiday light display (candy canes, spiral trees, etc.) are from Kmart (it was one of the first places where you could find LED trees, candy canes, and such) and I still have the house curtains and bedsheets we got there! Sadly ours closed down years ago, and the space is now subdivided-it holds a Grocery Outlet, a Boot Barn, and a Hobby Lobby (which moved from its location in the shopping center _across_ the street). RIP Kmart!
I always loved K-mart. I frankly did not know there was one left. It almost makes me want to drive from MA to NJ. Thanks for the tour.
Respect brother. Thanks for this.
That is a spotless store. I would be shopping there just for its cleanliness.
Our last K-Mart in the Louisville Kentucky area closed in 2018. It was at Outer Loop & New Cut Road and was opened in 1970. As far as I know it was never updated. When I was there in 2002 it sure wasn’t. There was an old Winn-Dixie store next to it at that time, likely opened in 1970 as well. Walmart moved in next door and that was the end of both. That is a nice K-Mart. It must feel weird to be able to still walk through one.
Well, it has the old HVAC diffusers in the ceiling, so it “kinda” feels like Kmart! Shout out to all my East Brunswick, NJ Kmart shoppers! If you remember the days of the true old cafe with burgers and fries in the back of the store… and the old brown floor tiles in the entrance that made your shopping cart rattle like it was about to fall apart, let me know! 🎉🎉🎉😂

Thank you for the great video!!.I worked for Kmart in the early to late 80's in Ithaca NY. Good memories!!
Thank you for sharing this!! All the memories of all the times walking into Kmart just came flooding back, since my local Kmart had the same departments arranged in almost the same layout as this store. Today my local Kmart has been converted into Target, and while still a decent store, it's not quite the same experience.
I live about 5 mins away from this KMart in sag harbor and haven’t been in the place in probably 5+ yrs, I’m actually shocked to see how well stocked it is considering most of us around here think it’s basically empty and are waiting for a target or whatever to move in. Thanks for the tour
Nicest looking Kmart in awhile, reminds me of the one we used to have in Bloomingdale IL just outside Chicago before it closed in 2017. That one was actually modernized and upgraded (by Kmart standards).
Almost like going back in time. ❤
Wow and that Kmart is organized beautiful
I remember when I lost all of my Kmart stock ... thanks, Martha Stewart! I used to love that store.
It's like watching an urban explorer's video. Ty 4 sharing!
Great video. I used to work at my local Kmart the last year they were open. The store closed in the spring of 2016. It was my first job in retail and even back in 2015 it felt like a store stuck in 1996. I remember after the holiday season in 2015 they announced the store was closing and I was there for the first month of liquidation. I ended up getting another job down the road. On my hour lunch breaks I would visit my friends who still worked there. It was sad seeing a fully stocked store when I left to just a couple months later being nothing but some empty shelving units. I have mostly good memories from my time there except for the holiday season layaway customers. I still keep in touch with a couple people who I worked with.
I live in Southampton, the adjacent town to Bridgehampton. The reason why this kmart works in this area and is still up and running is because the nearest big box store is about an hour away when you account for summer traffic. If you're coming from as far as Montauk, that would be 2 hours in summer traffic. Beyond that, there's absolutely no where to buy any kind of electronics in the Hamptons after all the Radioshacks went out of business. I used to work for the Radioshack in Bridgehampton that used to be located right next to this kmart and I also worked for the Verizon retailer in the same plaza. These stores do crazy sales numbers in the summer time and I'd often check our sales figures in comparison to the other stores in the same district. I'm old enough to remember when this Kmart first opened. Before that it was a Caldor. When Kmart opened I hated it because it was fancier and bigger than Caldor. I'm sure something like a target is going to open in its place and I'll hate that too because it just reminds me that these big businesses keep getting bigger.
The Kmart in Miami is only a quarter of the size it used to be. The other three quarter became At Home retail store.
Thank you for the video! I was only a kid when Kmart was still a relevant, solid store you could purchase from. Looking at Kmart now, it is honestly sad how it declined so rapidly.
Up here in Canada, our local Kmart closed back in1997. So you could image how excited I was to fine one in Water Town, New York back in 2014. I was also pleasantly surprised to see that they sold men's tall sizes for the same price as regular sizes. Up here in Canada, they use that as an excuse to charge extra . WE MISS KMART : (
I actually LIKED K-mart... I could usually find what I needed, it was affordable, and you didn't feel lost in the store.
Mid 80s, I worked summers during college in a Kmart distribution center. We shipped all through the Midwest and east coast. The warehouse was huge then, then the expanded it in the 90s. Now it’s all gone, what a shame.

Surreal to see what's left of one of the stores I grew up with (not this one in particular). Stores like Kmart, Sears, Montgomery Ward, ShopKo (for those of us living where they operated)... all to be just a memory. Going to these stores could be more than just shopping, it could be an entire experience.
We had a nice Super K in Fairbanks Alaska, I still remember smelling the Little Cesar’s Pizza as you enter the store.
oh man, watching this takes me back to my childhood in maybe the late 90s. walking to Kmart with my mom that was like 3 miles away to shop.
I miss Kmart, grew up going to the one in East Brunswick, NJ all the time. I remember towards the end before it closed for good I would buy the the store brand mac & cheese. Wasn't bad tbh and I think it was under 1 dollar a box. Hard to believe that was like 8 or 9 years ago already. Thanks for bringing back the memories.
I worked for Kmart for 7.5 years, back in the late 1980's, into the early to mid 1990's. It's so sad to me to see the demise of the company, due to poor management decisions at the corporate office level. Back in the 70s and 80s in south central Kentucky, Kmart was hugely popular. In Bowling Green, KY, we had two Kmart stores. Little by little, you could see them fade away. So sad. Glad I watched this video to remember past events.

CEO greed and not keeping up with the times led to the downfall.
That's a nice store. I see they're still using RES (Retail Enterprise Suite) for their signage, I was the lead for that at my store in 2008. I served 7 years working at mine as my first job at 16 years old. I had the best co-workers and boss, it was a great start to my working life.
I love hearing the strong New York accent at the end! The loud, forceful way of speaking is so different from the suburban midwest.
The only reason i am missing kmart is that it's part of some memories of my childhood. My friends and i would hang out at the Packer stadium on our bike and after i would bike to kmart near by to get a few thing before heading home. That was back when the stadium was just a structure of sheet metal. That whole area doesn't even resemble what it once was. I forget how old i am some times. 😅

I worked for Kroger for 25 years and before we moved to a new store, we had those tiles they used to leak and one time I was changing one and it burst, and all the water and tile Pices fell on me.
This sure brings memories, K-Mart was one of the stores i frequented to when i was a kid all the way to my early adult years. Most of the things i had back then for the most part came from there, from clothing, shoes, cooking utilities to electronics, it was the more affordable option for the families with little money. What i remember from K-Mart the most is the pizza, my parents used to buy me some every now and then, sure it tasted like cardboard and while it wasn't the best neither the worst it was a decent cardboard tasting pizza XD.
That’s such a nice one. Ours was also really nice and then it went out in 2019.
Bridgehampton has a very high poverty level. The workers live out here year round. It is the only store outside of Riverhead for people to go to. Before it was Kmart it was Caldor. A couple of years ago we stopped there and it was bad. Smelled like mold. Then about a year ago it became what you see it now even changed the sign out front. The officials in the area asked Kmart if they were going to close. They got no answer. That store is vital to the workers and people in poverty out there as some don't have cars to go to the closest major retail area in Riverhead.

There was a k-mart near me until a fee years ago. Stepping inside was like stepping back in time.
I lived near one in Waynesville, NC and then Covid killed it. I used to brag that I shop at Kmart but no one thought it was cool😢
Blast from the past here. I haven't been in a Kmart probably since I was growing up in the 90's. My memory of going there was going to Little Ceasers which used to be in every one I think in my area. Then Walmarts started popping up in the late 90's and Kmart was done for.
RIP K Mart. I had many nice times with you & my late grandfather. XXOO
I worked in the King Kullen in the same shopping center 35 years ago. That KMart was a Grants store in the early 70s, then a Woolco, then Caldor and finally Kmart in 90s.
I had went to K Mart for so many years that I do miss them. I did know that their prices were higher than Walmart for identical products. For example - Edge shaving cream and Tuff Stuff car upholstery cleaner. The beeping you hear at the exit door is a keypad trouble sounder for the Radionics/Bosch Fire alarm and intrusion system. A leaking roof is one thing to neglect but fire/life safety systems are very important and violates NFPA 72 fire codes. The Fire Marshall could make an order to repair the trouble or face temporary closure of the business.
Going to be lights out 💡 for those KMart Blue light specials
I remember the Early days must have been late 50s. Mom & Dad liked it just for something to do. "Blue Light special in the xxx department " It always seemed busy back then. Maybe because I was little and it was big!
Thanks for sharing. I am surprised there are still a couple K-mart locations left.
I enjoyed your video!!!! I use to enjoy shopping at K Mart. They killed it themselves. They did not keep up the stores. Prices were always higher. They didn’t care. The blue light specials use to be so much fun!!! Loved their snack bar too. Poor management added to all the closings. Very sad. I don’t care for Wal Mart but shop there often. Refuse to shop at Target!
Man I was getting all the feels wishing I could visit since it's almost a time capsule
I tried to buy something at the last Kmart opened in Louisville a few weeks before it closed, just to say that I shopped there one last time. It was a few days before Christmas. There was a long line, only one cashier, and no self-checkout. And the cashier just straight up walked away and didn't come back.
Us Mexicans called it The Kmark. Blue light specials would send people running. There was a sub sandwich booth where you entered and a cafeteria in back next to the bathrooms. We always bought our ammo there. Thanks
I went to the one in Abilene a few months before it closed & could only find an ice cream bar & a Dr Pepper too. They had some Kenmore branded 32” TVs (LG), but I didn’t need another one, and not at $50 more than the comparable LG model everywhere else. They also had extremely clearanced out stuff including VHS-C -> VHS adapters, and I almost bought one just to have it, but also didn’t need it. Also, after working at Fry’s electronics for 10 years, I’m traumatized by that alarm panel beeping.
We miss Kmart. Kmart and Sears 😢😢oh and Woolworths. Bur Kmart will always have a special place in our hearts ❤️🥰🙏😭
This one reminds me of the Kmart near my house when I lived in Las Vegas. Almost everything I bought from them is gone, now that I think about it. I still have a laundry rack and a little plastic drawer organizer. We had a portable closet for a long time from them, it finally gave up the ghost - man, almost 15 years after we bought it? I hate what they did to that place. I wish bad things on them. Sure, market forces, whatever. But we just can't have nice things, I guess. I'm so tired of fighting like hell to stay in one place.
Love the sweat shirt!! ❤
I haven’t been inside of a Kmart in over a decade! I’m surprised that they still have two stores open at all! I grew up with a Kmart in my hometown and a distribution center too.
Here in Australia we still have K Mart, my husband works at the local store, he has been working there for nearly 30 years.

Like yea ooohhhhhh digital age and online shopping blah blah. Nothing beats having these store and places growing and getting to roam round in the community and engage with people while doing your errands and such. Times are so different. I’d give so much to go back to being a kid with an allowance and eating at Kmart with my friends and browsing the mall afterwards again. Play in arcade, get a comic at bookstore. Sit in the massaging chairs. Window shop for next weekend. Having fun with friends and meeting ppl. Damn sad these days.
My surgery required me to wear those. Unpleasant but the alternative was more grim.
My local Knart was the BIG one & it had a pizzeria when you walked in far left corner I miss that pizza it was so good & the ICE drinks with different flavors man i miss the times when i was a kid i remember everything, all ever see these days is people glued to their phones it's scary.
Omg I have to go there soon never knew it was there 😊
10:05 mannn that poster display hit my nostalgia bone
Growing up in a city where I went, frequently, to a Super K, this makes me kind of sad. The memories will never be demolished.
My favorite dress is from Kmart is a route 66 dress. ❤❤❤
Good ol days 🙂↕️, I’m 28 now, I remember going with my parents when I was 6- 11 yrs old 😮
