I recently got offered to re-subscribe to ShopYourWayMax for $1 for a year. Never bought anything significant from Sears and not a big fan of their stores. Usually pick up Craftsman tools and stuff I usually don't need but the points make it to cheap to pass up. So came across this on slickdeals:

So the best few weeks I've been "rolling" my SYW points and getting some stuff cheap: nakamichi wireless headphones for $0.01, nakamichi bluetooth portable speakers for $0.01, BEM bluetooth speakers, etc. Yes don't need it, but able to pay for the product with points and get back the same amount of points = no charge out of my pocket. And the Nakamichi products are pretty decent especially when it's free. You do have to put in an initial investment of around ~$50 to get the points. But if you shop carefully, you can 'roll' those points with each purchase and get a bunch of stuff for pretty much free.
Sears website leaves a lot to be desired, buggy and slow. Pretty much the opposite of Amazon. Their CSR is the worst as well. But their cluelessness can be an advantage: I recently got a CSR to do a price adjustment which pretty much made it so they end up paying me to buy from them. So an initial hard start as you get use to Sears but as you do more and more points 'roll', you get use to it and then the rewards come.
