Daily Diversion: Shopping online at Kmart in 1998

“Imagine a store where you can browse aisle after aisle, and never take a single step,” a Kmart representative says in a visibly dated video posted by Consumerist. It was 1998, and e-commerce was practically unheard of. But Kmart positioned itself at the forefront of in-store online shopping through an initiative called Kmart Solutions. The program lasted for about two years because online shopping wasn’t yet in vogue, Consumerist reports.
