Sears joins in on the trend and offers Black Friday deals with huge discounts on its products, with price matching local competitor's Black Friday ads as well as its own Black Friday deals on Nov. 21to 26.
If a customer purchases an item on www.searsoutlet.com during this six-day promotion (November 21-26) and finds that the item* is priced lower in a local competitor's or Sears Outlet Stores' Black Friday ad, Sears Outlet Stores will match the price between December 2-8, 2014 at any of its locations.
"With every retailer offering special low discounts right after Thanksgiving, shoppers get caught in a chaotic frenzy. We wanted to give customers an opportunity to shop confidently and know they have an opportunity to price match if the item they bought on our website is cheaper in a Black Friday ad," said Bruce Johnson, president and CEO of Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores, Inc. (Nasdaq:SHOS), parent company of Sears Outlet Stores.
"At Sears Outlet Stores, consumers can find great deals on everything from home appliances and tools to lawn and garden equipment and sporting goods at significantly reduced prices. Now, they have the opportunity to save even more on products that are important to home and family life," Johnson added.
On the other hand, if a customer is asking for a price match for a product from a Sears' competitor, he/she must present the Black Friday ad and the online receipt on Dec. 2 to 8, and the product must be available in-store at that time.
Sears will be giving huge discounts in its online and in-store outlets to hundreds of items including lawn and garden equipment, mattresses, home appliances, sporting goods, apparel and tools.
Participating branfs include Whirlpool, Kenmore, LG, GE, Nordic Track, Craftsman, Sony, Landss' End and Dockers, among others.
