My experience with Sears was quite the opposite of those posted.
But this was over 10 years ago, in Wisconsin.  Some friends and
I, hippies all, were trying to rebuild a trashed-out farm house.
We were looking for gas heating supplies, which we found at Sears.
The total bill for it all was over $600 (1973 $), and
we had very little money.  But the salesman must have been
desperate for a commission, because he suggested buying on credit.
I told him I had no job or decent credit history, but he said to
put *HIS NAME* down as a reference!  I got the card.  And we did a
very nice job on the house.  I still have the card.
