KvHulk Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) Got my last order 3 days ago after sending it back twice as "damaged during shipment". Yes, I gambled.. But I ended up getting my minty sets in the nick of time in the end... I'll miss syw and the free merch. I miss Sears circa 1986... I wont miss the current Sears or Kmart. ta ta!

Alpinemaps Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Funny Kmart story... I was in Big Bear this weekend, and passed a Kmart. I had no idea they had one. I got excited. Figured there's gotta be good stuff there, and it would probably be shutting down soon. Ran through the store, and nothing. Nothing on clearance. Nothing good to pick up. Got back to the car and discovered that the Big Bear store is one of the most profitable in the entire chain. (Makes sense - there's no Walmart or Target easy to get to). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 2 KMarts have nothing on sale either, and since clearance dropped to 70% all the remaining LEGO sets (TLBM Clayface, Constractibles) have been scooped up as well. Luckily KMart.com has a number of sets at 40% off, some of which are still on the shelves in my store (albeit at RRP or RRP+5%), so I just do pickup in store to get the online price.

Sorry, I may have facilitated the looting of the Bishop CA store already ? Believe it or not, they typically have good deals, gotten a decent score or two from them before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exracer327 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 The Kmart near me must be fairly stable. I have yet to see anything of substance go on sale there. But they're not getting any new LEGO stock. I know because I've been spending my pts in store and I'm pretty sure I'm like one or two people who have been buying from them... lol. Every month, the same sets are located in the same spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil B Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 My last two bigger winnings ($5 Sweeps Weekly and a $3 bonus spin) have not credited to my account. Sent an email to [email protected] but that seems to be a black hole ([email protected] told me to send it there). Anyone else still playing Sweeps and noticing the same?

Yeah, I had the same with this weeks sweeps weekly, still not seeing it so I guess it's over, or whatever Fun while it lasted, probably time to uninstall WinIt, haven't won more than 5 cents in about a month. Truly the end of an era. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KvHulk Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Total waste of time now. Kmart and Sears still exist? I wouldn't know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil B Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I'm still getting decent winnings - not the $20 per week from a few months back but still $5-$10 per week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Well, I was checking my KMart point balance checking for that next $5 to hit, now my balance is $-1.23. I had $11 sitting out there last night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisynd Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Anyone else notice there doesn't seem to be anymore $10/100, $20/150, $5/50 coupons available? Seems like it's been a week since RME and other coupon sites could provide them... Even the classic SEARS5OFF50 is toast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
