Armed with Gift Cards, Shoppers Anticipate Bargains During Post-Holiday Sales

Sears Prepares Offers for Week that Traditionally has been Biggest of Year for Gift Card Redemption

For many people, December 26 means one thing -- the start of post-holiday sales. With great deals in stores and online, it is an ideal time for shoppers armed with gift cards to cash in on great year-end promotions.

Sears, Roebuck gift card redemption in December is generally 140 percent greater than an average month. Much of this increase can be attributed to post-holiday shopping. The combination of year-end sales and the soaring popularity of gift cards, enables more customers than ever to select exactly the gifts they wanted to receive, and stretch their holiday dollars.

If the convenience, freedom and affordability of gift cards aren't enough, Sears promises door-busting offers to stimulate customer visits during what has become one of the busiest weeks of the retail year. To illustrate the great deals in store, Sears has put together "before- and after- Christmas shopping carts."
