The Fine Print
- Limit one $10 award card per transaction.
- You can mix and match Visa/MC/Amex gift cards. So long as the total is $100, you’ll be eligible for the $10 credit.
- Award card is valid for use in-store or online.
Our Verdict
“Limit one award card per transaction” I believe this means that you can’t get more than one award card in a single transaction, but you can get multiple $10 credits by splitting up the purchase and buying multiple $100 gift cards and getting multiple $10 Kmart credits.
This deal is mainly useful for someone who shops regularly at Kmart/Sears as they’ll have an easy way of liquidating these $10 Kmart credits. Since these expire quickly, it’s only useful if you have a plan to use them.
The real kicker would be if you can maximize this deal by purchasing the Visa gift cards with a Kmart gift card, but that’s something that the cashiers are trained not to allow.

Cash only.
Passed !
I still have more than $100 to use on other Sears/KMART gift cards. Not sure I even want any more.
Everything in KMART is 20% higher than Walmart
I just purchased a $100 MasterCard and they would not accept credit card cash only. After giving them my member rewards number I finished out the transaction and I didn't receive a $10 bonus card. I went to customer service where she tried telling me the promotion doesn't start until 8/9. I told her that's when the bonus card starts. She gave me a $10 gift card that can be used right away so I came out ahead by $3.95
Sorry I meant to say $4.05
Any idea if variable loads will work? Trying to meet a minimum spend.
For all intents and purposes the credit is really only worth $4.05 considering the $100 Visa/MC GC has a $5.95 fee. Were the fee waived this might be worth it, especially if you put the credits towards some resale worthy 100% SYW back items.
Is there a limit as to how many of these award cards you can redeem at a time next week?
