@ukedog said in PSA: SINKING SHIP ALERT! 72 more KMart/Sears stores to close:

@mistercheap So in some places, there are Sears stores packed with customers, freshly-stocked shelves, and plentiful and helpful employees? If so, I guess you’d be lucky to snag a nearby parking spot.

LOL, I’d love to know what location that is? My remaining KMart seems to do pretty well, usually a fair amount of customers, shelves there for the most part well stocked. But I can’t say the parking lot is what you’d call full.

I really loved Kmart back in their hey day, long before the Sears merger. they were a great chain in the 70’s and 80’s. the 90’s began their demise with the proliferation of WalMart’s & Target’s everywhere then followed by the online shopping phenomenon. Remember when KMarts sold freshly popped popcorn, submarine sandwiches, icees, etc? Good memories.

I just noted that the receipt says I still have 55 plenti point. So that’s like 55 cents?

Correct. 55 Plenti points is worth 55 cents and unredeemable at Rite Aid as they require you redeem at least 200 points.

if I lose it, can I write it off on my income tax?

Funny, I too have 55 cents left on one, I got my remaining balances down as close to $25 as possible to do one more ‘fill up’ at Exxon at 2 of my plenti cards. think I have 10c left on the other. the horror of losing 65c total.

@mrvietnam said in Amazon offers $30 off Purchases of $60+ for Select Amex Cardholders YMMV:

Your points will be applied at checkout but we were not able to activate the promo code. If you have already activated this code, your discount will be applied at checkout.

I probably did not qualify for this promo due to this:

Offer is not available to American Express Membership Rewards eligible cards whose points have been previously used for purchases at Amazon.com in the past twelve months.

yeah, did this in December, so I got the same message. But it is showing in the blurb, but dead ends when I click to activate it, get that message.

"Sears has identified another 100 unprofitable stores."
Couldn’t that have been simply “Sears has identified another 100 stores.”?

I think these 72 closing are part of the 100 in general. Now, if your store has nothing on the shelves, hardly any staff and looks like a ghost town for the last 2-3 years, do you really expect stores to be profitable? it’s like they’ve been set up for failure.

@zennuts said in PSA: SINKING SHIP ALERT! 72 more KMart/Sears stores to close:

More “Freecash”,

$8 in Tools,
$7 for “anything”
$55 for $499 or more in appliance
$20 for $30 or more in Gardening

If only I can find something on the empty shelves.

hey @ZenNuts good to see you. wish more old Fat Wallet people would post, miss many of the gang.

@mrvietnam looks that way, but 72 stores is a lot. My closest Kmart now is about 15 miles away, only do the best of the best deals there to make the commute worth it (not for a free $5 in points, usually have to be getting at least a $20 benefit to justify the trip). If that one closes I’m screwed as there just aren’t any others to shift to around here. My closest store 3 miles away closed about 3 years ago now. then others about 10 miles away closed in 2017.

Have a Sears real close at our local mall, hope that survives, but for the most part, I’ve gotten the best point type deals at KMart.
