Sounds awesome!! Thanks for sharing this info, SHC-ErinM.

I Can't help but notice the one hour specials are all in Hardlines :)

Apparel is certainly getting its share - up to 80% off!!

are you saying the event is not all day but only from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.? we  normally close at 6 p.m. but were told we would be open until 9 p.m. but no one had said the event was not all day long

The VIP Family & Friends event is three hours (6 p.m. - 9 p.m.) and there are hourly specials during that time. The store is open during their regular hours with the extra deals after 6!

I reeeeally want the solar light set!!!!  BIG thanks to all the Sears associates and managers that will work late so I can purchase the solar lights!  For $19.99, I may have to buy two sets!! :)

Family & Friends is always 6pm-9pm.

I got the email notice about the VIP Family and Friends, but it doesnt give you the codes to shop online and figure what the sale or discount will be. Where do we get the online codes from?

thank you soooo much for telling us!

Darn!

I done already bought my Craftsman Carpenters' pencil.

:)

Only cost 39 cents, plus Arnold (tax).

No online codes. It's automatic.

Can't get to the store today but I'll be checking online for a comforter I've had my eye on and hope it's on sale :)  I can't believe I'm shopping for a comforter on such a hot day but it's soooo cute!

Didn't make it to Sears today for the lights...hoping they are on sale at 6pm online!!

Anyone find a great deal at the Family & Friends event today in store?

I didn't get to the store but I just got my comforter and a Brita water pitcher online and saved big. :)

Did anyone else get any super amazing deals?  Would love to hear of a few!

I went to the store last night, I got it.  88776, 21' Craftsman Professional Lawn mower.  I saved $50.00 so I bought a nice cover for it to.  Reviews will be coming soon!!!!!

I didn't have my Craftsman Club Card with me......no points for me!!!!!!!  Left it in my toolbox.     :(

OH NOOOOO.  :_( thats a crying shame.

I just asked ErinM about it.  I hope she can help.

Maybe I'm wrong but it seems they should be able to match up the salescheck with your Craftsman club number after the fact.  Might take a bit of doing, but I dont see why not.

I bet you will be able to get those points, Jeeper.  Awesome score on the lawn mower!  Can't wait to hear how it is!

I hope so, I am really excited!!!!

Family and Friends Day for the Hometown Stores is today August 17 all day long!!! Come in and save the extra 10% on most of everything in the store!

Craftsman Club number can be looked up on the computer, all you have to do is put in the customer phone number that was used when they set up the card!!

I just printed off the coupon and it is for JULY 12th.  Is it going to be valid?

What coupon?

I got a great deal!  I bought a Whirlpool Gold DW,  a Kenmore Elite glass top range, and the Kenmore Elite garbage disposal.  The sales girl was fabulous, and gave me $40 off the 5 year protection plan for the range.  She was so patient with me on both occasions I've wandered in trying to make up my mind! 

These sales are so good, I'm not even going to be ready to install until October, but I was told the next F&F is in November, and that will be too late.  So, I'm willing to let them sit in my garage till then.  I hope I don't regret that decision. 

That is excellent, merrye!  Love to hear about a deal like that!  And, with such great service, too.

Let us know how those appliances work out for you once they are installed.  You must be moving or doing a remodel? 

I helped stock the floor, before leaving for the weekend.

I missed this one, but when is the next one?

Soon!

Be sure you have registered your eMail with Sears, that's how a lot of special events are being advertised, now.

And, even with the fliers, the eMails have addendums that have MORE STUFF on sale!
