Montgomery Wards was smarter than Sears. They saw the writing on the wall and voluntarily closed up shop.

We always like Woolco better than Kmart, but they went out of business early.

(List_of_defunct_retailers_of_the_United_States)

Wow, that list is a walk through history. I remember shopping at many of those stores.
