What I've found is that if you want to get the discounted price posted online, you have to place an order online, and then either have it shipped for extra cost, of find a local Sears store that has the item in stock so you can go pick it up there without shipping charges.
This doesn't always work, however. I purchased three orange boxes and one blue box at the nearest Sears, all the blue stuff they had according to the Sears web site. But when I got there, they only had four orange boxes, no blue, and they were unable to just sell me three. So I got all four with the intention of returning some of the orange once I had located more blue. I wound up driving 33 miles to another Sears to pick up four blue boxes. Another Sears location, closer, had three blue boxes on display but none according to the web site. I snapped those up as well.
Now I have too many, so I'll probably be returning some of the orange boxes once I re-affirm that the blue is the better of the two (as I recall from testing my Miele).
