Nice! That should help make up for the recent lack of surprise points freecash offers for you, at least. (I got absolutely nothing on my in-store purchases Tuesday, and there's now multiple complaints on SD of not receiving any on online orders this week, too. :wtf: ) If this doesn't turn around soon, the Sweeps Weekly email offers may be a lot more important than we thought! (I won't be skipping any of them if I can help it!)

Forgot the 7PM WW, but I did hit the $5 bonus a little after 8pm... :)

I think I'm up past $47 (with winnings and the $12 from my price adjustment...) :)

Was sick a couple of days this week, so played intermittently through the day whenever I thought about it, and got all the games done at least twice this week. Up to $60.89 in points, had spent it all down to zero about 10 days ago. Hit a lot more $2, $5, $4 than usual this week.

Wow! I won the 2-3pm CT $4 WW Xtra today, and I think that's my only big win in a while, had a single $1 on Monday.

This week's offer in the Sweeps Weekly email is $5 off $0.01+, same as last week. Expires Tue 6/19. So far (been ~5 hours since the email went out), the offer is only visible to me on shopyourway.com, not showing up in the sears.com offers lists, but it does work in the sears.com cart.

Direct link to the weekly game: https://www.shopyourway.com/app/20750/l/promotion/jrqji65g35/promo-sweeps-weekly-20


Update: The $5 offer is now showing up normally in my sears.com freecash offers list, as of Sunday night.

Happy Father’s Day y’all!

Am I looking in the wrong spot or did they remove the drop down link to Your FreeCash at shopyourway.com?

Today I won $1 in one of the Win List app-only spins. Very unusual for a non-Monday.

There were multiple errors saying something like 'the spinner is temporarily unavailable' while I was trying to get through those. Clicking past the error and trying again was usually successful.

Well, cashed in today, used $62.24 and $5 in freecash from the weekly sweeps email to buy two pair of levis for $73.98, so about 6.75 out of pocket for two pair of levis. Today was the last day for the levis on sale; don't know if they will or will not raise the price. Sears is just too inconsistent. I'm about out of things that I can buy and use at Sears; I usually buy a 10 lb box of welding rod anytime I get up arouond $30 in points; and usually throw in a box of 18 ga brad nails for my finish gun to make up the $35 shipping minimum. The Levis were a good deal; selling at $36.99; got back $30 in 2 installments on buying a pair for cash; used $15 of those points and the others I won this week to get another two pair for a total of $36.75 for 3 pair of levis; or $12.25 per pair. That was a reasonably good deal on something I'll use. Will have another $15 coming back July 1 from the clothing freecash back, so maybe get something else cheap again the first week in July to use up points.

Should have about $8 or $10 coming back from buying welding rod and a lisle stethoscope and some nail gun nails the past few days. Price was 10% off, so filed price protection forms today to get back the 10% savings for stuff i got in the past 30 days. Wished they had processed those before I placed my order.

Eventually I made it through all the games before midnight, but had to fight through frequent errors on Xtra too. Small-change win rate was somewhat higher than usual, probably thanks to the errors reducing the number of players.

You could try chat instead of filling out the forms, on future occasions - usually the chat reps can immediately give you the points back.

I'm up to almost $50 in points, unfortunately no free cash offers though. Need to figure out some things to buy... ugh... Not sure if I want to try risking a small initial purchase for store pickup and see if that triggers any offers, or just blow it all on one big item...

For whatever it’s worth, I made small ($5.39 to use the $5 Freecash that came with the Weekly game email message) online purchase with store pickup this morning. Picked it up after lunch and then made a $7.98 purchase in store, using points to pay. So far, no FreeCash or other offers/deals from anything.

Of course, YMMV cuz Sears gonna Sears!

So far today, I've won a Win List $1, the 1-2pm $1, and the 2:20-4pm $1! :D

Waiting till tomorrow to decide what I'm going to do with the $5 offer plus recent points. Some people on SD have been reporting difficulties getting it to apply to purchases today (but that's obviously not universal all day since it worked for Zippercat this morning).

The Sweeps Weekly $5 offer? I never made it to the store yesterday to try it in-store.

Anyone else with the $5 freecash redeem it a Sears store without the Member Appreciation extra 10% off interfering?

About 9:30 this morning I first tried my purchase of this putty knife: http://www.sears.com/craftsman-1-2-in-stiff-stainless-putty-knife/p-00994813000P

My first attempt to finalize the purchase failed. It was “processing” for several minutes. I waited about an hour and then confirmed that the $5 FreeCash was still available and that the additional 390 points had not been applied from my account. (I’ve had other purchases finish “processing” without any indication.) Then I tried again and the purchase went through without any problems. The additional 10% members discount was not applied.

BTW, one of the managers at my local Sears told me those stainless steel Craftsman putty knives are old stock that was shipped to them without notice. Also said that Sears has so far not found a new supplier for them. I’ve used them for years and found them to be as good or better than any other I’ve found.

Yes, the $5 offer that came in the weekly email. The 10% in-store would probably interfere, but it should work online, if it's working at all. I'm not sure what Zippercat means by "The additional 10% members discount was not applied." Online, the 10% sale discount is already reflected in the prices you're seeing. Because it's not treated as a coupon online like it is in-store (so that they don't have to change all the price tags and then change them back a few days later; it's a big hassle to the store employees), there's no conflict.

Just grabbing a few things and see that Kmart is offering me 100% back in points on household cleaning items. All I see is spend $5 get 25% back, but some are offering 100%.

This afternoon I bought this staple gun with points: http://www.sears.com/surebonder-all-in-1-staple-gun/p-00968518000P

At check out I got an additional 10% discount off the sale price.

Just looked at my receipt from in-store last night. Stupid 10% off negated my $5 FC. Only reason I got the set of tweezers I really don't need.

If you Sears still has any, the Craftsman sharpening stone is $8.99. through replacement ?Norton? is $24.99, and is the exact same Made in Mexico product.
