Sears Gets Jump on Cyber Monday - Starts Deals All Day Sunday

Retailer also lowers free shipping threshold for online orders to $35

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., Nov. 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Shoppers will find another major savings opportunity to fill their sleighs at Sears this holiday season as the retailer kicks off its Cyber Monday event early – starting Sunday, Nov. 29 at 12 a.m., running through Monday, Nov. 30 at 11:59 p.m. Daily "Cyber Busters" will continue through the week online at Sears.com/cyber, ending Dec. 5 and will feature deals on appliances, apparel, tools, jewelry, consumer electronics, footwear, fitness equipment and more.

A shopper uses the Sears mobile app, activating its In-Vehicle Pickup service to get her online purchases delivered to her car at the Sears store in Oakbrook, Ill. Retail experts anticipate 2015 will be the most connected holiday ever, with online and in-store shopping experiences becoming more seamless using enhanced mobile features and more integrated retail options.

For added convenience this holiday season, Sears also announced it lowered the minimum purchase threshold for free shipping on qualifying online orders to just $35 (was $49).

"Sears goes further on Cyber Monday by combining great deals plus a suite of free services," said Leena Munjal, senior vice president, Customer Experience & Integrated Retail, Sears Holdings. "So whether you're browsing Sears.com, using the Sears mobile app, visiting our stores or, like many of our members, a mix of experiences, we've made holiday gift shopping easier than ever."

Highlights of Sears' Cyber Monday deals include:

Sears began revolutionizing online shopping when it introduced Buy Online, Pickup In-Store 14 years ago and has steadily innovated to create convenient, time-saving services that integrate online shopping and physical stores. Free services particularly useful during the busy holiday season include:

  • In-Vehicle Pickup, Return and Exchange in Five– guaranteed to have online orders ready in five minutes or less, or receive a $5 coupon

  • Meet With An Expert– Seamlessly move online home appliance research to the store and get expertise from a knowledgeable home appliance associate

Key to many of these services is the Sears mobile app which also lets shoppers find the right products quickly and compare features, prices and user reviews; find deals, get eCoupons, and make the most of their Shop Your Way points; make purchases, track orders, and manage their layaway contracts.
