HOFFMAN ESTATES, IL--(Marketwire - August 24, 2009) - The holiday season is a time to
celebrate with family and friends, not to worry about how to pay for
holiday gifts. With that in mind, Sears (NASDAQ : SHLD ) and Kmart are helping customers plan ahead and
save -- so they can more fully enjoy the holidays -- by bringing them the
Sears and Kmart Christmas Club
card.
The Christmas
Club card allows shoppers to save ahead for their holiday purchases at
Sears and Kmart months before hitting the stores or surfing the Internet.
Starting now, Sears and Kmart Christmas Club card users can put aside some
funds on a regular basis through November 14 to add value to this unique
gift card and receive a special reward when they do.
When activated between now and October 31, Christmas Club card users will
earn a three percent reward -- up to a maximum of $100 -- based upon the
value they have on their Christmas Club cards on November 14. To activate
cards or add additional value at any time, customers can visit any Sears or
Kmart store location, or online at www.sears.com/christmasclub or
www.kmart.com/christmasclub.
Starting, adding value to, and redeeming the Christmas Club
card is designed to be as easy and flexible as possible. Customers can
start their Christmas Club cards with as little as five dollars, and they
can add value as often as they want -- at any one of Sears Holdings'
approximately 3,900 full-line and specialty retail stores, or online at
www.sears.com or www.kmart.com.
As with all Sears and Kmart gift cards, there are no fees associated with
the Christmas Club card, and the value on the card will not expire. Cash
or credit refunds are not allowed except where required by law. All of our
gift cards can be redeemed at Sears, Kmart and Lands' End store locations,
as well as online at www.sears.com, www.kmart.com, www.mygofer.com, and
www.landsend.com.
