Sears spend $50, get $50 update

I just learned that Sears is NOT honoring the spend $50, get $50 promo if you used a gift card to purchase the $50, like I told you about doing with the CVS deal (buy a $50 Sears card, get $10 ECB). This makes NO sense to me, because a gift card is LIKE CASH, and the rebate information did not exclude purchases made with gift cards.

I just wanted to give you a heads up, in case you planned to do this deal. You can call 1-800-479-6351 to speak to Sears Customer Service about this. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.

  2. That is really too bad. I think a lot of people will really be upset with Sears. We used two gift cards to do this transaction. It seemes like they shouldn't care how it is paid for. Like us someone gave us the first gift card as a gift so I'm not sure why it would matter.

  3. I agree.
    As Lynn emailed me, you could try to return everything and then rebuy it with cash so that you can get the $50 back. You could then save your gift cards for Christmas or something.
    I suggest you call Sears Customer Service and complain!!
