Double dip with gift cards

Sears is unusual among online merchants in that they explicitly allow portal earnings from both buying gift cards and using them. This makes it very easy to double dip: go through the portal once to buy gift cards and go through again to use them.

NOTE: Do not buy physical (by mail) gift cards with your Freedom card as it will be unlikely to earn the 4th quarter 5X bonus (since physical gift cards are sold by Kmart).  A better option is to buy e-gift cards, or reload an existing gift card (either e-gift card or physical gift card).

Gift card order verification

With most gift card orders, Sears calls to verify your identity before releasing the purchase.  If the process takes too long, you can expedite the process by calling Sears first.  Have your order number(s) handy and call this number:

1-888-396-5299

Be prepared to answer a number of questions to prove your identity.

Only 15 gift cards per order

Sears.com will accept no more than 15 gift cards per order when using gift cards to buy merchandise.

25X Example:

  • Buy $175 Sears e-gift card, get 8X miles = 1400
  • Pay with Freedom or Discover card, get 5X = 875
  • Buy $175 worth of merchandise, get 8X miles = 1400
  • Earn 700 bonus miles from AAdvantage eShopping promotion
  • Miles Earned on $175 Spend: 4375
  • Miles per dollar: 25
