I bought a large appliance recently and got a $50 points-"discount" from the sale price that had been jacked up $50. However, I had to spend the "discount" points ONLY in the large appliance department on another large appliance, and I had to do it within two weeks. What a ripoff! I will never shop there again and told the sales clerk that, and also told the person who called a week afterward checking to see how I liked the appliance. No wonder Sears is having to close stores!
