K-mart was a store that wal-mart essentially ran out of business because they sold the same type of stuff, but managed to do it cheaper.
Back in like the 70’s and 80’s the store would have a blue flashing light on a rolling cart that the6 would park in an isle where the “blue light special” sale was. It was a goofy thing.
They also had a thing called “lay-a-way” where you picked out stuff to buy but couldn’t pay for. They’d bag up all your stuff and keep it stored away in a room while you came in and made payments on it until it was all paid for, then they’d give you your stuff. Strange times.
I am not American and have never been anywhere close to either of these stores and have no fucking idea what a blue light special or whatever is.
The good thing about comedy though is that anyone with half a brain can understand the context clues and laugh. The joke isn’t about k-mart or sears.
