Sears - Shop Your Way Rewards?
« on: December 29, 2011, 05:45:34 AM »
Anyone familiar with this program? They have an offer of 10,000 bonus points for writing 10 reviews (http://www.mysears.com/mysears_blog/Last-Chance-to-Earn-1-000-SHOP-YOUR-WAY-REWARDS-Points-for-Every-Review-You-Write-Up-to-10-Reviews).

Any idea what the cash value of these are? I'm having problems finding it on their website.

They write in the t&c that a 1000 points are worth $1

It is your standard 1% program. They give you 10 points per dollar spent. A lot of time they have 2x, 5x and even 10x promos throughout the year. Stack this with shopping portals and it does add up. Now you need to think outside the box.  ;)

Actually, it's your standard 0.1% program.

Are you using new math or do I have the program details wrong?

Spend 100.00 you receive 1.00 in rewards. That is 1% or am I missing something?

You have it right. I don't think he understood that its ten points per $1
Also regarding the op being that there is so little value in their points it's not worth the hassle to get 10k points/ $10

if you get 10 points per dollar of purchases, that's 10%, not 1%

Yes, but my point was that a point isn't worth a penny, a point is worth a tenth of a penny because they give you 10 per dollar and 1000 = $1 in redemption.

Sears advertises these HUGE points bonuses but you need to drop an extra zero to see their true worth - not much as it is...

You are making this way too complicated. You receice 1% back in cash on what you spend. I don’t care if it is 1p/$1, 10, 100 or 100000000p/$1. It is no different than a Chase card that gives you back 1% on purchases.

But do you mean, how can you compare 100,000 points to 10,000 points?
