Comment: Because of Sears' commitment to Christmas, I purchased a flat panel TV from them rather than Best Buy. I also appreciate Sears'commitment to our troops by paying salaries for active reservist and national guard members. I will continue to make all purchases that I can from Sears.

Comment: I read about Best Buy recognizing the Muslim holiday and not Christmas or Thanksgiving and your store was rated high on this website. I enjoyed your Christmas advertising on TV, we always have sports on. So when my son said your price on 9" portable DVD's was the same as Best Buy, I went in and bought them at Sears. ...Have a blessed Merry Christmas.

Comment: From all the catalogs I received by mail the past weekend (50+) only 3 of them had the word Christmas on them and Sears was one of them. I love the fact that the printed it big and clear. I usually don't shop there, but this Christmas I will look for all my gifts there first.

Comment: Shopped today at the Mall of America in the Sears store because of the viewer recommendations! The lady at the check out was VERY excited when I told her that Sears was getting great ratings. AND they support our military too. You can donate a dollar to make a military family have a Happy Christmas (not quite sure how, but what a GREAT idea). Thank you Sears!

Had already been to JC Penney but decided not to shop because we could not find Christmas posted anywhere in the store. Sears had what we wanted and had signs throughout the store with Merry Christmas. We will continue to shop at Sears throughout the year. The clerk also wished us Merry Christmas!

Comment: Sears' "More Value, More Christmas" is one of the most (if not the most) blatant Christmas-friendly slogan this season. I like the use of the words 'More Value'. On the surface, granted, this is making a statement on products and the nature of Sears' business. However the slogan digs deeper than this and alludes to the fact that values such as family values, American values, Christian values etc are significant and timeless and that by identifying with these things, we can all have 'More Christmas'. What a grand promotion! Cheers to Sears!

I USUALLY GET THE SAME ANSWER IN RETURN. ONE THING TO KEEP IN MIND, YOUR REACTION TO THINGS TEND TO GENERATE THE SAME REACTION. USUALLY A "MERRY CHRISTMAS" WILL GENERATE A "MERRY CHRISTMAS".

Comment: Not please with the spirit of employees at the Prescott store. Not one employee I spoke with ever mentioned the word "Christmas". I actually had to spend a gift card I had won (at the store) but I left not purchaseing anything with my money. If they don't want my Christmas dollars then they get my (holiday)dollars either. But Christmas Angel is grateful for the $100.00 of gifts.

Comment: I saw in their recent flyer that on several pages it states " More values more Christmas". Whereas it doesn't say Christmas trees (usually you don't get a holiday tree) or Christmas decor, that is a hopeful showing of support for Christmas. I appreciate the effort and may yet go to the local Sears to shop this year.

Comment: I went to Sears last Subday to buy a pair of pants for work. The floor clerk came up dressed up as an elf and asked what I needede. When I asked about a big & tall section, she said they are mixed up with other pants and to look for the blue tag. She never offered assistance nor knew where the product was after I couldn't find the pants. She didn't even say Merry Christmas when I left disgusted with the service I received. I ended up buying the pants at Casual Male XL.
