Sears has the most flexible gift card around because it can be used not just at Sears but also at Kmart and Lands’ End stores. Sears gave me a $200 gift card and challenged me to buy as many gifts on my list as possible with it. On Thursday I’ll tell you what I bought and how Sears, Kmart, and Lands’ End helped me save money on my gift purchases. In this giveaway sponsored by Sears, two lucky readers will win a $50 Sears Gift Card that can be used online or in-store at Sears, Kmart, or Lands’ End.
The Flexible Gift Card
You can buy gift cards online or in-store and give your gift card recipient the flexibility to spend it at not one store but three stores! This is a great way to give a gift that will be appreciated, and used for exactly what the recipient wants. I’ll be sharing my tips on how to make any gift cards you give or receive go a little further on Thursday along with the gifts I’m buying.
Sears Catalogs
A great way to get gift ideas by browsing online or ordering to receive in your mailbox. A catalog would also be great to wrap up along with the gift card you’re giving! You can also browse or order Lands’ End Catalogs.
Connect with Sears, Kmart, and Lands’ End
So many ways to connect with your favorite stores! You can follow @SearsDeals, @KmartDealsnNews on Twitter. You can become a fan of Sears, a fan of Kmart, and a fan of Lands’ End on Facebook. It looks like this could be a great way to get exclusive coupon codes and keep up with the deals.
