Your Merchandise Discount Provides These Savings
Discount Policy Q & A
Retirees are eligible for a discount on merchandise and services when purchases are made with cash, check, Sears gift card (at Sears), Kmart gift card (at Kmart), Sears credit card, or other in-house credit card. The retiree discount is also allowed when PIN debit cards are used at most registers within stores.

All associates who retire in accordance with company policy are granted a retiree discount privilege. If retirees are married, discount cards may also be issued for their spouses.
