Goodyear tires buy 3,1free +$40 off +$160 rebate +free shipping @ Sears .com

Is buy 3 get one free deal still going on for in store calls? Is the idea here to double dip with $160 rebate?

My dad threw away the invoice that came in when they shipped us the tires, is that invoice the same that I can find in my sears account under my order history or do i have to call sears to send me another copy by mail?

My experience with this order is not very pleasant. I should have it shipped to me instead of pickup from the store which is 40 miles from my home.

I got the confirmation email that it is ready for pickup (the store already invoiced it so they already charged my card). When I drove there, the store is already closed (online store information said they closed at 7PM but the actual closing time is 6PM). The following day I drove there again, spent around 30 minutes at the store then I was told they are out of the tires and asked me to go to other store probably to do a store transfer since it is showing they have it in their computer. When I arrived to the next store, they don't have it as well. The lady associate at the second store tried her best to help me find the tires nearby my home (thanks to her). I stayed there for 1 hour before finding one. She talked to the manager of that store and explained my situation. Today I drove there but they can not do a transfer of order since they belong to different area. The manager from the third store price matched it instead and charged my card. So now, I need to call the first store to cancel the invoice and refund me the first payment. It is said that the online customer support can not change my order and have it shipped instead.

got the tires installed today.

$60 for Life time balance, rotation, install
$144 for 3years Alignment (159 - 10% coupon)
$16 Chrome Valves
$8 tire disposal
$ 89 for engine clean ( i know, i know whats coming, but read on)
$ 54 for power Steering fluid flush (155k on odo and I dont think that it was changed in the last 50k miles, plus the level was low)
$30 for Oil Change
-$22 in coupon (part of engine treatment)
-$12 in Oil change coupon ...
$23 shop fee
~$392 ....

My Local mech would have replaced
$60 for Mount, Balance and Install, valve stems (no life time balance, but yeah rotate tires on regular service)
$144 for 3years Alignemnt (159 - 10% coupon) - Does not do
Chrome Valves - Normal rubber valves included in install
tire disposal - No idea if he would have charged, may be he would have sold the tires to a used tyre dealer ..
$ 89 for engine clean ( i know, i know whats coming, but read on) - Does not do
$ 54 for power Steering fluid flush (155k on odo and I dont think that it was changed in the last 50k miles, plus the level was low) - may be he would have charged $10 less ...
$30 for normal Oil Change + filter - Same rate
coupon (part of engine treatment) - NA
Oil change coupon ... NA

No idea if the engine flush would help, but I will come to know if the mileage improves. but the steering feels a little more smooth and so does the engine.

Will I go back to sears for more work, most probably not for regular work ( i hate their shop fee etc)., only things I will go there are tire balance and alignment every 6 months. generally 25% or more expensive than my local mech.

So long story short, my car engine blew up so I need to return these tires. I haven't even pulled them out of the packaging yet. But it's been almost 3 weeks. I had them shipped to me. Can I take them in store and return them to Sears? How long do I have?

Here's the return policy [sears.com]. Hope that helps, sorry about your engine...

I believe they will charge 15% restocking fee. That is what stated in my invoice along the line item.

Thanks, looks like it won't be a total waste for the car. Just need a new head swap, then I'll be good to go (stupid timing belt broke on me).

So I'll be keeping the tires after all .

did they give free lube out at least for you to use while waiting

Quote from moey : did they give free lube out at least for you to use while waiting

? did not understand your question, but there was a internal coupon that the sales adviser applied to the Engine Treatment to take some % off the Engine Oil Change.

Initially before the $12 coupon, it took $26 off, but after the $12 coupon , it took $22 off.

On a side note, My rebate submission is now showing as processing at http://www.goodyeartirerebates.co...tatus.aspx

It took approximately 2 weeks from the time I mailed it.

Quote from Wyndhamscams : $500? I got my bridgestones mounted and installed for under $300 w/o having to use sears CC or deal with any rebates. $500 doesn't seem much of a deal. $130 a tire? The people posting deals sometimes, I wonder what they were drinking

What tires and where?

Just a heads up:

I got my rebate 2 days ago; problem is, it was for $80 (instead of the $160) even though I used a Sears card. I called the rebate hotline and was told they sent only $80 because nowhere on the invoice does it show how I paid. Gave them my info and another $80 prepaid card is now being mailed out to me. No biggie, less than 1 minute on the phone to correct an invoice oversight...
