As you might already know, I am working with Sears this holiday season to provide readers with up to date information about holiday shopping, sales, specials and more.
Sears would love to know if any readers have done some holiday shopping at Sears and if they have anything they would like to share with me about their experience? Did you snag any awesome Black Friday deals? Have you discovered other special savings and discounts while shopping at Sears (I’m still thrilled about the 50% off we got on the handbags we bought our daughter for Christmas). Please comment and share your Sears holiday shopping experience with me. 🙂 Or maybe you just want to share your memories of the beloved Sears Holiday Wish Book that many of us grew up on.
Some other important holiday reminds…
Don’t forget about Sears’ Real Joy Guaranteed.
–Â Satisfaction Guaranteed (return policy).
– Lowest Price Guaranteed – Sears will match a competitor’s advertised price on same items plus give you 10% of the difference.
– Free Shipping – Can’t find the item in store? Sears will ship it for free!
Visit http://bit.ly/aliguar to learn more.
I think it’s great that you can order something online at http://bit.ly/aisears and they can have it ready for you at Merchandise Pickup in 5 minutes and if not they will give you a $5.00 coupon. I find that very convenient.
They also guarantee that you can return or exchange a purchase in the store in 5 minutes, or get a $5.00 coupon.
Did you know that Craftsman Hand Tools come with a Lifetime Guarantee? If a covered Craftsman hand tool ever fails, Sears will repair or replace it for free. That should make you feel confident buying Craftsman tools, especially for the holiday season.
Sears carries plenty of great brands including Kenmore, Craftsman, Sony, Panasonic, Samsung, Xbox, NordicTrack, Dyson, KitchenAid, Cannon, Kuerig, Samsonite, Kardashian Kollection, UK Style, Levi’s, Bongo, Nautilus and Brunswick, to name a few. I also love that they have such a diversity in their stores. You can literally shop for the whole family there. You can buy tools for dad, video games for the kids, jewelry for mom and clothing for the entire family.
If you need a little inspiration on gifts to get people on your holiday shopping list, don’t forget to check out Sears.com/Gifts.
Did you know you can get FREE holiday shipping on qualifying orders using the promotional code RealJoy? That is a great savings.
Speaking of savings don’t forget to check out the People’s Pick each week. Each week shoppers can pick a deal category and then vote for the best deal. People’s Pick offers shoppers multiple gifting categories that they can vote for: DIY-er, Chef, Techie, Sports Fan, Him, Her Kids, Teens, Trendsetters, Entertainer.
Voting takes place Sunday- Tuesday. The most popular deals are available on Friday and Saturday in-store and online. For example, this week at the People’s Pick Sears is offering a Grape (Purple) Vivitar Grape ViviCam VXO29 10.1MP Digital Camera for $39.99. That is a $30.00 savings off the regular price. A 10.1 mega pixel for under $40? Wow!
Did you know that you can view ads from your local Sears online at anytime? Visit SearsLocalAd.com. I’m sure that will be helpful for many shoppers. Personally I enjoy knowing what sales are going on before I go to the store. It helps me to know what to shop for which helps me to stay on budget too.  Â

We signed up for a rewards card but forgot to use it online. I LOVE Sears, especially for the men in my life! They have a great “community” online too where they do fun promotions. Love to read what others have to say!
thanks much!

My favorite thing about the in-store pick up is the 5 minute guarantee. I’ve never gotten the coupon for them being late but that’s okay because it means I get my stuff quickly. Either way its a win-win situation: fast service or free $5
