Sears.com Entertains America by Extending Popular Book Reward Program to Include DVDs Plus Free Shipping Opportunity
GETTING YOUR FAVORITE MOVIE ON DVD, IT'S AS IF IT WERE FREE(SM)
HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., Nov. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Buying a
favorite movie on DVD just got a lot easier. Sears Holdings announced today
that it will extend its popular book reward program, introduced in October,
to now include some of this season's hottest movies. Sears.com is rewarding
customers who purchase a qualifying DVD on Sears.com, Target.com,
Amazon.com and Walmart.com with a credit of up to $10 - as if it were free!
Customers are rewarded for their DVD purchases in a snap, just by
following these simple steps:
>
1. Buy an eligible DVD* on Sears.com, Target.com, Amazon.com or Walmart.com;
2. E-mail the receipt to dvd@customerservice.sears.com; and
3. Receive an online credit equal to the purchase price (up to $10) to use
towards a purchase of $45 or more on Sears.com.*
The DVD deal will be featured prominently alongside the current book
offer on Sears.com via the homepage and at http://www.sears.com/dvd.
Customers can now take advantage of FREE unlimited shipping on all
music, movies, books and thousands of other items on Sears.com through our
program, ShipVantage. Especially for the holidays, we are offering a 60-day
trial of ShipVantage for only $19.99, or $79 for the usual 12-month
subscription.
"We're constantly looking for unique ways to help customers stretch
their dollars further and get more for less during this holiday season,"
said Imran Jooma, senior vice president for Online at Sears Holdings. "This
program takes the successful books reward program and extends it to
must-have DVDs."
Additionally, Sears kicked off the holidays last week by offering
"Black Friday Now" deals -- providing weekly deals, every Saturday up until
Christmas -- making gift giving even easier and more affordable with its
guaranteed best prices on the best brands. The "Black Friday Now" deals
were created when customers asked for day-after Thanksgiving door-buster
values earlier in the season.
The award-winning** Sears.com continues to evolve its online product
assortment providing value-oriented customers a site that is simple and
easy to use. The ShopYourWay(TM) campaign, which launched earlier this
year, allows customers to shop how they want, when they want, and where
they want.
"Sears.com is committed to offering an exceptional online shopping
experience that transforms the way our customers shop," said Jooma. "Our
goal is to provide our customers with choices and to help them easily find
whatever they need when they need it."
ShopYourWay(TM) gives customers the ability shop how they want, when
they want. Highlights of the program include:
>
-- Choice to Get It Today - Sears offers "Buy Online. Pick up in Store,"
backed by its READY IN 5-GUARANTEED promise.
-- Product Assortment - Find millions of products on Sears.com, ranging
from books and electronics to jewelry, appliances, clothing, shoes,
tools and power lawn & garden equipment.
-- Payment Choices - Pay your way with Online Layaway, Express Checkout,
PayPal or eBillme.
The website also offers the option to create a helpful profile that
allows customers to keep track of their purchases, lists and addresses.
Creating a profile makes returning to shop at Sears.com easy and
worry-free, particularly with the holidays right around the corner.
