Don't you hate it when stores close or change names? Well, this happened to our local Kmart a few years back, when it was turned into a Sears Essential. Now, I dont' have anything against Sears, but I loved my Kmart store. Not only was it 3 miles from my house, but I grew up shopping at Kmart, and loved the deals and steals I could find there. I remember as a child, my mother bringing us here to do last minute school supply shopping, and then as we got older, this was our go-to store for holiday gifts for friends and family. My parents would give us each $50 to spend on gifts for the relatives, our best friend and teacher, and would let us roam around the store, while they put toys on layaway, or rushed them to the checkout, and stash in the trunk so we wouldn't see them.
I remember the first time my mother took me to a "Black Friday" sale. Our first and only stop was Kmart, as we were able to get gifts for everyone on our shopping list, even those hard to shop for people. If you haven't been to a Kmart lately, you really need to find a store nearest you. Not only do top celebrities have products exclusively sold at Kmart, but the selection of goods tops many other discount or budget-friendly chain stores I will not mention. I love being able to spend hours going up and down the aisles (which are spacious), just browsing. And, when I stumble across clearance item finds, which are usually 60-70% off, I get excited, like a kid in a candy store.
So, with the holidays fast approaching, I have begun putting together my shopping list based upon circulars from Kmart, and will begin my shopping this upcoming Sunday, November 4th, during Kmart's Family and Friends event. During this shopping event, customers who print out the coupons found here -- http://www.kmart.com/social4me -- will save 10% off almost every item in the store, including clearance items. Just looking at the recent sale flyer, I found a handful of the hot toys for the season cheaper than other major retailers. And, when you combine the cheaper price and this 10% coupon, along with another 5% in points (for qualified purchases) for being a Shop Your Way Rewards Card member*, how could you not take advantage of these great deals?!
I can't wait to see what deals I will find, along with the recent addition to the clearance sections, which will include fall clothing. Don't wait until the final days in December to start your holiday shopping. Head on over to Kmart on Dec. 4th and see how many people you can check off your list, while not breaking the bank or sacrificing on quality. Kmart has everything you or family could possibly need, all under one roof -- and the savings will astonish you. I know as I am a 30+ year loyal Kmart shopper. :-)
