Instant Points Fixer Upper is a $3 DB right now.  Codes for it are B1gspr1ng or iCanfixIT if you used your one entry already.

I get the extra sweeps games and do those regularly, but I still cannot figure out what you mean by DB (door busters), how do you access these on SYW?

You just have to wait until they decide to make one of the instant win games into a Door Buster.  Happens at random times.  You can tell because the image of the game will have the words Door Buster on it.  Kind of like how some say "Premium."  It appears in the same spot.  All you have to do is play the game like normal for it to count.

You guys that deal with Kmart have some serious patience.  I just had a second order canceled and they put $1 and change on a different giftcard than what I originally used.  In addition to that, I was just delivered some road baseplates that I ordered to make up for the previous damaged ones they sent and these were damaged too.  Is it common with baseplates to have deformed studs on the edges?

Seriously, sounds like they have a supply issue with those baseplates - likely the batch got damaged in the warehouse and you're just getting replacements from the same batch.

I wish.  The closest Sears is a Hometown store, or whatever they call the smaller independent stores, and I don't think they can do that.  It's not an option at checkout.

Quick request... Does anyone have a decent apparel coupon their not going to use?  My wife is ordering ~$50 in kids clothes and I can't believe that I don't have a good coupon.  Thanks!!!

They can receive shipments from a warehouse. My local Sears showroom has that ability.

Thank you. Put to good use!

I ordered 4 first or battle packs and was excited when they arrived yesterday... well, the white velcro walking shoes that I received are going to be missed by someone. I hope they enjoy my stormtroopers.

I still got my $10 point rewards points, so maybe it'll work out in my favor when I swap them at the store.

I received hiking shoes once.
Took forever to get money back after returning through mail.
Can you return Kmart merchandise to Sears? I know longer have a Kmart within 50 miles. Mine mysteriously disappeared without me knowing it.

I've never returned to Sears, maybe you could call them.

Yes you can, however, it doesn't work for all items. Not sure on which ones qualify and which ones don't. I know for a fact that sleeping bags cannot be returned in a Sears store - had to get a (free) UPS return label and make several phone calls before I got my money back on an order of those I made a while back. I did return a LEGO set once upon receipt which was no hassle at all.

If memory serves me correctly...the main difference between the settlements was that New England was based on religious reasons (persecution/separatists) and Chesapeake was economics (make a profit).

Can anyone shed some light on the SYW VIP birthday-month mechanics?  My wife has run a few thousand through SYW this month (her birthday month).  She moved from Silver to Gold and is $300 from Platinum.  Will she be rated as 5% Silver (start of the month) or 10-15% Gold/Platinum (end of the month)?  Will she receive the points in a lump sum?  And when should she expect to receive the points?  Sorry if I'm asking a lot of questions- I want to know what to expect so we can call SYW when necessary.  The only thing I found on the SYW site is on the VIP page where it says "15% Back in points on your birthday month", and searching all over yielded me no info.  Thanks!!!
