by Brian Lipton

Beginning today, troubled retail chains Sears and Kmart are introducing additional customer enticements through December 25.

Among the steps being taken by the stores, both owned by Sears Holdings, to tempt shoppers are free home delivery for online purchases on all orders over $399; special savings and financing offers for credit card holders; and online-only cashback deals available on Sears.com and Kmart.com.

“These incredible offers provide substantial savings for our members while making holiday shopping easier and more convenient for them,” said Leena Munjal, senior vice president, customer experience and integrated retail at Sears Holdings. “We are focused on helping members stretch their holiday dollars this time of year, and it all adds up to significant ways shoppers can save, earn cashback in points, finance their big-ticket purchases and enjoy the stress-free benefits and convenience of our online shopping experience.”
