Win a $50 Sears Gift Card (Two Winners!)

Sears Gift Card
If you’re looking for a truly flexible gift that’s a little more personal than cash, Sears’ new gift cards may be the answer. Now, you can use your Sears gift card at Sears, Kmart, The Great Indoors and Lands’ End, making it easier for recipients to find something they want or need!

Sears sent me a $200 gift card to experience the flexibility that it offers firsthand, and I have to tell you, it really was that simple. I was able to shop from the comfort of my own home (in my PJs I might add) and check off a good portion of the items that were on my Christmas gift list.

Would you like to see what I got?

Sears Gift Card Purchases at Land's End
I’ve mentioned before that we have a tradition of buying our kids new jammies that are a present from Mom and Dad that they receive on Christmas Eve, so I was able to pick up five pairs of fleece pajamas (2 pink and 3 green) from Land’s End. These should make for some cute Christmas morning photos!

I was lucky enough to get 25% off and free shipping, so that left me a decent amount to spend at my next stop, Kmart.

Sears Gift Card Purchases at Kmart
I was able to pick up the last two items we needed for our two oldest boys’ main gift of the year — a PlayStation 3 courtesy of saving up my Swag Bucks! I had just enough to score this cool metallic blue PS3 controller and the component cables to hook it up to the TV.

I honestly had no idea that Sears gift cards could be used anywhere else other than Sears prior to working with them on this project. Being able to shop multiple stores is not only convenient, but it makes a Sears gift card a good choice for a family gift because you’re sure to find something for everyone between the four stores you can use it at.

But why not try it for yourself? Sears didn’t want to leave my wonderful readers empty handed, so two lucky Deal Seeking Mom readers will each win a $50 Sears gift card so they too can experience the convenience and flexibility!

To enter, tell me whether you prefer to shop online or in the physical store!

    I LOVE the ease of online shopping, plus there are many more coupons you can find to apply to purchases. Though there’s nothing like being able to see and touch the merchandise to assess the quality. Hard to say!

  7. Sarah

    I like shopping online for some items, like stuff I don’t need to try on or handle, but like shopping in store the majority of the time. I get stuff like books, CDs, DVDs online and clothes and shoes in store.

  9. Rebecca

    I like shopping online and in the store. If I know exactly what I want and can find a great deal with free shipping then I’ll buy online.

    I always shopped B&M until this year when I decided to take advantage of the free codes and shipping offers so a lot of sites. I was definitely able to get more free items this way.

    I mostly shop B&M because I like to see things firsthand. But, I will always shop where I get the best deal!

  20. Teresa Leisinger

    I like to shop both. If it is clothing for myself, I like to shop at the store, I’m a try on person. But I love to shop online if shipping is free!
    Let’s just say I LOVE TO SHOP!!!!!!

  22. Lindsay Smith

    Used to be brick and mortor but having a one year old has turned me on to online shopping and I love it but I HATE waiting for packages to come in the mail!

    I definitely like going to the store. Even though you have fight crowds and lines, I like to try things on, and know exactly what I am getting. I never have luck buying online, especially clothes.

  27. Kristy

    Where I shop depends on what I am buying. For clothes I prefer a brick and mortor store so I can try things on if it is for myself. If it is for others I like to at least see it visually and see how well it is made, etc.

    If I am buying toys or movies I prefer online since you can sometimes get better deals and no crowds!

    I like to browse online, but make my actual purchase at the store. .. I just minimize my time in the store by having an idea of what I’m looking for first.
