If i purchase tires from sears.com can i do store pickup if the store has them in stock? Its not a coupon code its just an option?

I am guessing its $500 before taxes but things like installation costs or add ons are fine?

thanks! i need new tires and would love to take advantage of this promo when it comes available im in no rush just before winter really starts

We are working with the suppliers of those products to ensure the following:
I'll admit, I stayed 100% away from this the first time around, but had been contemplating joining in this time. I am really completely oblivious to the nuances of this promotion. That said, how is raising the price of any particular item a good thing for users of this promotion?

I'm guessing it's for certain items that are $499.99 or even $489.99. Skymall might need permission to change an item from MSRP up to $500.00 to qualify for the promotion. I know Apple has strict policies enforcing MSRP (this is why Amazon won't show you prices on its website), and I assume Samsung followed suite for the Galaxy Tab (just a guess).

But it does seem a little strange the way it's worded as of now. I'm guessing they are referring to the Galaxy Tab 10.1 at $499.99. Personally since the resale of the Galaxy Tab is much lower than before I'm gonna stay away (although I think you could still net below 1.0 cpm with tabs). I'm thinking the Rebel T3 will be the item of choice, along with a price match.

SkyMall is not the same as Delta SkyMiles Shopping. SkyMall is the magazine in your seatback pocket which also sells through their own website, whereas Delta SkyMiles shopping is a portal that links you directly to other stores websites. In this promo, you are buying products directly from SkyMall who would ship them to you. So doing an in-store pickup does not apply, as you can't buy the items from other stores like Sears.

Though I'd otherwise get an iPad, I think I'll buy myself a Samsung galaxy tablet. Too bad skymall doesn't have laptops, as my was just burgled and I need a new one.

I wish they sold Apple products. I have no doubt that I could put 20+ iPad 2's to good use, but I have no love for android.

Hmm, not sure when "early December" is but since we're expecting advance warning I would think we'd hear something soon.

I sure hope so as I need to meet a $500 minimum spend that I have nothing to spend on normally.
