In case you haven't heard yet, Sears and Kmart have launched a great new program this year to help our customers (as well as retirees!) save and earn for Christmas. I'm really excited about it! It's called the Christmas Club Card. It's such a great way for you to save money and earn a 3% reward on the money you've saved! Let me tell you how it works!
First, fill out a really quick form to request your card. You can get the form here: Christmas Club Card! To make sure your card is eligible for the 3% reward, make sure to activate it before Oct. 31, 2009. Once your card is activated, start saving! You can add value to your card by going into any Sears or Kmart store or you can do it online! It's that easy.
You can add value to the card until November 14, 2009. Your 3% reward will be added to your card by November 25, 2009. Then what's left to do? Take your Christmas Club Card to your local Sears or Kmart store (or online at sears.com or kmart.com!) and go get all your holiday gifts! What other way could be easier to earn a little extra money to spend this holiday season?

I need everyone's help! I'm trying to find all retirees of Sears or Kmart that are out in the community and do NOT have a badge yet! What badge am I referring to? The one that looks like this:
If you have it, you'll find it appearing in the "Awards" section of your "My Home" page, as well as following you around the site! If you don't see it there, let me know ASAP so we can get you badged. Just email me at retiree@searshc.com and tell me, "I'm a retiree, and I want my badge!"
We have a lot of great promotions and happenings coming up that will only be offered to our loyal and dedicated retirees that are members of the MySears or MyKmart online communities. You definitely don't want to miss out! So get the word out! If you know someone in the community without a badge, tell them to email me. And if you know someone who still hasn't signed up for the community and is a retiree... tell them that now is the time!
Hope to hear from you soon!
