Do It Best Hardware in Cut Off Expands with Sears Hometown Store

CUT OFF, La., Jan. 17, 2017 -- Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores, Inc. (NASDAQ:SHOS) has opened its newest Louisiana Sears Hometown Store today, located inside Do It Best Hardware at 16230 Hwy 3235 in Cut Off.

The Cut Off location marks the first opening of a new Sears Hometown Store this year as well as the first opening of a new store across all of Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores formats. Unlike most retail concepts, Sears Hometown Stores combine the value, selection and services associated with larger retail stores but are owned and operated by a member of the local community.

“We look forward to providing our community with a large selection of home appliances at competitive pricing,” said James Cabirac, owner of the new Sears Hometown Store in Cut Off. “Visitors to the Sears Hometown space inside our Do It Best Hardware store can expect the same friendly service we provide as a locally-owned business but now backed by the buying power of a national retailer. It’s the best of both worlds and will be a huge benefit to the local area.”

This unique store format allows customers in small communities to have access to the great products and brands usually found only in Sears stores. For instance, the new Sears Hometown Store in Cut Off is the only place in town where customers can find an incredible selection of the top appliance brands such as Kenmore®, Maytag®, KitchenAid®, Whirlpool®, Bosch®, Frigidaire® and GE®, plus a large assortment of lawn and garden equipment, Craftsman® tools, fitness equipment, electronics, mattresses and more. 

The Cut Off team is excited to provide customers with professional advice, exceptional service and real-time price checks to make sure they receive the guaranteed lowest price. For instance, if a product is not available in-stores, Sears Hometown Store associates can order customers any product from the entire merchandise selection offered by Sears, including apparel, footwear, jewelry and much more. Customers also have the option to order products online and pick them up in the store without a shipping charge. The Cut Off store also offers Sears Nationwide Service, Parts and Installation.
