alimfp Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 UPDATE: Call your local store to find out how many will get cards and what time the store opens. Not BF deal, no, but it was a BF deal.. and may be happening again! I can't quote the post on the other board I am reading (private, paid membership kind). But the lady said, she went to Sears BF morning and got the $10 GC. She went to use it during checkout and the cashier had to call the manager. Apparently the card said it was only valid on Dec 3rd and the manager said they had in fact handed out the *wrong* cards. He had to give her a card good for BF and take her Dec 3rd only card back. She then asked if they were giving out $10 GC's on Dec 3rd and he nodded and shrugged. So a complete YMMV (your mileage may vary), but definitely worth a try. Again, no other specifics.. not sure if you have to be one of the first 200 in the store again or what. Worth a try if you are near Sears/have a reason to go there anyway. :)
bayhaysay Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 Thanks for the tip I'll be watching for more info on this one.
Kandy Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 Ill be cking this out to see if anything locally pops ups
outnumbered Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 Interesting, I'll have to keep that in mind.
happyrat Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 Well I just searched online, and they did it last year in Dec to the first 100 people so it appears this may be credible. Any here work for Sears and have a copy of next weeks ad? That would confirm it I'm sure.
christmasangel Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 Holy cow 12/3 is NEXT SUNDAY already!!! Where did November go!??!?! LOL THANKS!
Mugglemom Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 My sister and I went through Sears on BF to get to Radio Shack at our mall. We thought we'd just chance it and ask if all the $10 gc's were gone. The guy was like..."Umm, yeah, they were gone at like 6:03!"
christmasangel Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 The manager at our sears handed out numbers at 5:45- then when you walked through the door you handed him your number and you got your gc. I heard some older ladies gripping up a storm about in the storm later while i was waiting in line. I thought it was nice. we all ran out of our cars- got the numbers and then were able to sit back in our cars for a little bit (IT was 10 degress out!!)
treasure60 Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Well, I will have to ask my nephew about that,,,he has a friend who is a store Manager at the one just about 3 miles from me. If I find out anything I will post it.
stacimarie Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Need some tools, that will help. ** & \__/
DeMay1201 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 I was in line Friday morning, but they only handed them out at one of the six entrances. My door was handing out $10 off $50 coupons instead. They let me use it on the $49.99 leather jacket, so I got the jacket for $39.99. Coupon or gift card - worked out the same for me!
happyrat Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 All mine handed out were gift cards. I bought $100 so if they were giving out $10 off $50 I would have gladly taken that instead and given the gift card to some one buying less than $50.
VTmommy Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Just got my Sears flyer of the week, and on the last page it mentioned the free $10 Gift Cards to the first 25 people on Saturday morning, 12/3. I am sure those of you with larger stores will have more free GC to hand out...but I live in a small town! Now I just need to find out when the local Sears is opening to see if I can snag one of these cards. Hope this helps.
civicracinggirl7 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 There's a commercial for the $10 gift cards on Dec. 3rd... I believe it said the first 100 or 200 people... I could be wrong on the number though.
happyrat Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 What is Sears pm policy. Can I get a gift card and apply it to a prior purchase, or do I have to return it, and rebuy it?
Novac Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Holy cow 12/3 is NEXT SUNDAY already!!! Where did November go!??!?! LOLYou spent it counting down to BF, remember?
ebony0421 Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 We usually don't go to Sears, but we will be going now. I used to think that Sears stopped having good sales.
priya1202 Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 what time will the store open??? When will you all be going???
ReillyCheyenne Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 If you got one of those gift cards would they let you use it in the portrait studio?
bpr Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 They did this last year for several weeks in a row. We accumulated 5 or 6 of them between two of us. One week, we filled out forms in every department, hoping to win a $50 gift card or something in a certain department. We got a phone call a week or so later and won the grand prize: $500 gift card in ANY department. We bought a new big screen tv. I went on a Saturday morning to buy it and you got an extra 10% off before noon. They didn't have the tv I wanted and said they would give me $300 off any other tv to make up for it. Ended up paying under $800 for a $1800 HDTV. Thanks SEARS!!!!!!!!!!!
