I gave it red because it's Sears. Make sure you read the fine print on their sales. Last time it seemed that a very good appliance sale that would stack, but they had fine print that ended it before the friends and family began.

not a reason to red a deal. just because you have an issue w/the merchant doesn't mean it gets a red. since you are so red happy, I'm happy to give you red too!

 

edit: apparently you DID NOT read the fine print and now take it out on Sears because YOU thought you were entitled to something which you weren't. Obviously you're a sore loser because it was CLEARLY LISTED IN THE FINE PRINT about the sale rules to start with and now you trash them for your error.

BTW this F&F sale is actually better than the ones they've been running recently because it offers the Black Friday sales (except for early morning doorbusters).

25% off Lands End, which is nice.

because in this case he's taking out HIS error on Sears and the OP. you can't get angry at Sears if the rules are listed and you think you're entitled to a discount you are not. I think the Buy.com reds are for a much more widespread dissatisfaction with some of their tactics that may be justified if you're trying to alert people about a questionable merchant.

there was a time on FW that EVERY TigerDirect post got red.....people despised them for non-paid rebates, bait/switch, etc. so there it wasn't a consumer issue but a merchant issue once again to respond to you Bill.

Sorry, but I believe that it is a reason to red this kind of deal. Here is the thread about the bait and switch that Sears did before: http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/expired-deals/954550

They advertised a 2 day appliance sale in the same block where they were advertising a 3 day sale. They pushed for people to wait for the 'friends and family' sale when many appliance prices where actually higher during that sale.

I'm sorry that pointing out potential negatives of your deal is not acceptable to you. I simply meant to point potential issues out to other members so that they would not repeat my mistakes.

I appreciate your follow up, read some of the posts in that thread and understand the frustrations. It may be best to order online than in store it seems for large ticket items from some of the comments.

Hoping they have another TV deal like the Panasonic 50" 1080p plasma for $768 during the last F and F.

thanks for posting this...I was wondering when the next one would be. Any idea if they're still doing or will do the additional 10% off for using a Sears card?

I'm glad you got that. I tried it at my Sears and was Denied! "Sorry we don't stack the 5% F&F 10% panasonic AND the 10% for using your Sears card" so I can feel yourlefthand's pain.

Don or anyone who got the Panasonic TC-P50S1 for $768 the last time please post or PM me your receipt so I have something to fight the register tards next time at Sears.

You too? I ordered a LCD, then changed my mind and got the plasma. I had to call and cancel the LCD 'cause I didn't log in when I bought it, then the store called me to say that they didn't really have the plasma in stock so they canceled that, too, and I reordered from a different store. I got all three BCB credits. I figured it was the goofy circumstances that caused the error...not that I'm complaining.

I got the TC-P50S1 for $768 during the last F&F. It was 5% F&F 10% for panasonic over 42" and 10% for using Sears card. At first they were like no you can't do 10% for Sears card, but then the guy checked on the computer and turns out you could stack all 3. So don't take no for an answer if you go purchase this during f&f night.

So the Samsung washer/dryer thats listed in the BF ad will be available for the same price -10%. Am I reading this correctly?
