I heard a rumor that Eddie plans to make surprise trip Hoffman Estates this week. It has something to do with another Amazon program and the Kenmore deal. The word is Kenmore is going to launch a new robot vacuum cleaner like a Roomba. It will be sold on Amazon.

@gxk If this supposed Gizmodo preview of a Kenmore or Alfie robo-vac actually exists, please post a link to it, because I'm not finding anything under either name.
Are you sure he’s not just showing up to lock the doors?
LOL! Alfie was the name of the Amazon Alexa wannabe that we ended up giving away to customers with a purchase.
1fql Thats a pisser. LOLOLOL
According to the Alfie robotic vacuum preview on Gizmodo, the voice commands are sent to a customer service rep who finds someone to come to your house and vacuum your floors.
Voice commands to a machine that generates a lot of noise? That makes no sense.
The new vacuum is called Alfie (seriously) and it takes voice commands. Looks cool, saw a preview on Gizmodo.
I have the mixer it’s not bad. I won it for that kickoff contest we had (sold 9 in one week, tops in the region!)
It’s cool to whip something up and then be able to add in thru the top like that.
Looks like they’re going to bring back the kenmore tv, one of the Korean makers this time, 4K only. Supposed to be some other stuff for the new wishbook, we’ll see.
The red color mixer is selling for $299 on Amazon and the 2 verified purchaser reviews are scathing. There are a bunch of vine free item reviews that say it's good but those are suspect once you see the actual purchasers reviews.
How are the sales on that mixer that will save Sears coming along?
Hurricane not going to have any real major effect on Florida so that theory goes out the window.
Only reason for Eddie to leave his bunker in FL and come to HE is to escape the oncoming Hurricane.
We all know why he is coming, and sugar coating this with a vacuum cleaner is not gonna help. This company spends Z E R O on research and development, they took the plans of a Chinese knockoff of a Roomba and probably had a few thousand made with the Kenmore logo. A knockoff of a Roomba is not enough to get Eddie off of his boat. The Kenmore deal MIGHT produce enough cash infusion to keep the stores open until Christmas IF they are being run by liquidators, there is just no way beyond that.
So is he going to have 5,000 of them and they will not work as advertised like the mixer that was supposed to save the company YAAAYYY!!! ( I hope you can detect my sarcasm )
He's going to be there to prepare for bankruptcy announcement. He'll be making sure all incriminating documents are shredded so when the feds come in after announcement he won't end up in prison.
