Subject: Christmas at Sears!!!

>
> Sears - Christmas shopping has already started
>
> I know I needed this reminder since Sears isn't always my first choice. Amazing when you think of how long the war has lasted and they haven't withdrawn from their commitment. Could we each buy at least one thing at Sears this year?
>
> How does Sears treat its employees who are called up for military duty? By law, they are required to hold their jobs open and available, but nothing more. Usually, people take a big pay cut and lose benefits as a result of being called up.
>
> Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called up reservist employees for up to two years.
>
> I submit that Sears is an exemplary corporate citizen and should be recognized for i ts contribution. I suggest we all shop at Sears, and be sure to find a manager to tell them why we are there so the company gets the positive reinforcement it well deserves.
>
> Pass it on.

> Decided to check this before I sent it forward. So I sent the following e-mail to the Sears Customer Service Department:
>
> I received this e-mail and I would like to know if it is true. If it is, the Internet may have just become one very good source of advertisement for your company. I know I would go out of my way to buy products from Sears instead of another store for a like item, even if it's cheaper at that store.
>
> This is their answer to my e-mail:
>
> Dear Customer:
>
> Thank you for contacting Sears.The information is factual. We appreciate your positive feedback.
>
> Sears regards service to our country as one of greatest sacrifices our young men and women can make. We are happy to do our part to lessen the burden they bear at this time.

Thanks, I didn't know that so it gives me yet another reason to shop at Sears. I became a real fan of Sears after my Shop burnt down several years ago and being an X Hotrodder I had a lot of hand tools. I took two large boxes of half melted Craftsman hand tools down to Sears and they replaced them with out any question to tune of $2500+. We also had a new dishwasher go out after a couple of months and after just one phone call they came out and replaced it.

Always take your Med's
