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?

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.

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!

I used to be a brick and mortar shopper only, but I’ve started to do a lot of my shopping on line with the help of all the money saving bloggers. I find their ideas of sales and places with free shipping and that’s how I get my best deals! Thanks to all of you great bloggers out there!

I am all about 3D! I don’t think I have ever ordered anything that looked like it does in person…so I prefer to just hit the store.

I prefer shopping in physical stores, but I have been doing more on-line. They are offering such good incentives and it’s nice to have the variety.
Nicole

Both methods are OK depending on which coupons/coupon codes I can use. Online is sometimes better because the website may allow me to stack codes, and I don’t have a cashier in front of me denying all my great coupons!

I like to shop online & in the stores, but if I haven’t seen the item before I like to go to the store to buy it. I guess it depends on what I am shopping for.
Erica

I usually prefer to online shop, although sometimes certain items I feel like I need to be in the store to buy so that I can check out the true color, feel of fabric, etc.
