Inside the SEARS Wishbook — A $500 Grant a Wish Giveaway!

ME Liz Strauss wrote this at 7:07 am

This post is a sponsored post on behalf of SEARS via Izea.
The opinions, memories, and words are mine.

Every year when I was a kid, my mom would sit us down with the Wishbook from Sears. She’d have us make list of what we wanted for Christmas…. The tradition came with a solid promise that at least one item on each list would end up under our tree. My list kept me busy for hours — busy dreaming, and wishing, and learning the life skill of filling out order forms.

When I got with this special assignment, Would I be part of the SEARS “Don’t Just Give a Gift, Grant a Wish” program? You can bet that Wishbook was the first thing I thought of — the miles of lists and the piles of wishes all through my childhood.

The request was simple: I would get a $500 gift card to buy whatever I wished. Then I would go to Sears.com to put together three $500 gift packages — so a lucky reader will get to choose the one they wish. Two cool complicated, positive problems to solve. Who wouldn’t go for chance like that?

More about my wishtory in a minute.

Towels, Socks, and Underwear

Ah walking into the the Sears Flagship store at State and Madison in Chicago — It was like walking inside the Wishbook for real. I met @AmyDerby, who brought her camera, at the coffee shop in back. Amy and I fueled up on coffee. (I had a caramel latte.) Then we got a cart, looked around … wandered aimlessly … stopped to look at the “Chipmunks Movies,” and talked about passing lyrics to Chipmunks songs with @Starbucker via Twitter. Not many folks know the words anymore.

Shopping is more fun with someone you like.

We walked on overwhelmed by the clothes, jewelry, and beauty products. They’re nice, but not what I’m after. We didn’t really know where to look first. How do you wish when you’re surrounded by so many things and your holdiay shopping is already done?

Don’t you just love the towel all lined up that way? I never buy any because it makes me want all of the colors. Where would I put them?


Luckily I had asked Grandma whether she had one more holiday wish I might grant. She said, “Do something for yourself, but remember — get socks and underwear.” So we over to the socks. We played a bit with the multi-toed muppet socks. Then I picked out three pairs of dress socks for meetings … 3 pairs of socks for $10 …

Time for a new plan, this rate we’d be there until 2020. Underwear was out.

Wishing for a Good Night’s Sleep — Pillows and More!

My wish was a good night’s sleep. Nights are short in my life. Sleep is precious.

Down the elevator, past the luggage, through the rug aisle, straight for the pillows we went. Big, beautiful, fluffy pillows. The best white down pillows were what I was after. My husband and I hadn’t bought new pillows this century. Now we were talking wishes happening — four of them.

For better sleeping, my husband wished for an electrostatic air filter — fresh air in a high rise building is a wish worth having. On the way to the that filter, we stopped and got him a hair trimmer he’d been looking at the night before. It took two seconds. When we said we wanted, Iza, the woman who helped us with the pillows, knew exactly where to find it.

We’d got those wishes, but one wish was still whispering in my head. We were off to electronics.

That’s When We Met Dick Tracy

We saw iPod accessories, brand name computers, and a display of Flip Video cameras (already have one and love it). I was in blogger heaven.

I was headed to a real camera to replace the grainy iPhone photographs on my blog. Problem is, I didn’t know what I wanted. I called @BeckyMcCray who advised in a flash — pun intended. Now I could talk to the man — and he was the man — Richard Tracy. He answered every question I asked — and a few that I didn’t — about my new Olympus FE-360 camera. Amy took our picture while we talked. That’s it up there.

Boom! I had a camera I knew would make my pictures look good.

That afternoon Amy and I had a meeting planned. So we took a few more pictures and I talked to the guy who would be holding my stuff until the next day. Amy took care to see that details were looked after in fear that I’d get back and my packages wouldn’t be there.

We took light stuff with us. Well, we got the camera at merchandise pickup in 1 minute and 40 seconds. Gosh, they were nice. One person brought the camera to us, but three people found reasons to smile.

The whole shopping adventure cost $558.81 — and $57.32 of that was taxes.

One Hitch, But a Happy Ending

The next day, I returned with my husband to pick up the huge pillows and air filter. A manager on the elevator recognized me and said “Hi!” My husband was impressed. Unfortunately, the guy who said he’d be working when I returned wasn’t there and my stuff wasn’t either. No one seemed to know where to find what I’d bought and I had a meeting in an hour.

Special Thanks to Jessica, the third floor manager, who came to the rescue. She problem solved by thinking through who might have moved it and where. She realized that my stuff was placed in layaway overnight. Jessica turned around an almost unhappy ending to what might have been a perfect experience. Her thinking got me to my afternoon meeting just in time with everything. No harm, no foul.

Granting a Wish for You!!

The second part of this cool assignment was to put together three Grant Wish Packages that I thought a reader here might enjoy. That was pressure …

Good luck with the contest, and I want you to win a wish too. I got a chance to meet some wonderful people, to remember what wishes are about, and how fun they can be.

Don’t Just Give a Gift, Grant a Wish — and if you get a chance, tell a wishtory of how someone made a wish come true for you.

And remember there’s only one rule: BE NICE!

My Wishtory

Some cool kids — real celebrities — are telling their wishtories over at Sears.com
Mine is simple. You’re looking at it — my blog.

My Dad didn’t give me a chance to visit his saloon … he showed me the meaning of community.


Every holiday card I write brings back thought of those wishbooks, and I sign most with hope that all of our wishes come true. This year SEARS didn’t just give me a gift, SEARS granted me a wish of my childhood … one that I’d never, ever that would come true. That’s me, sitting with the lighted reindeer, thinking I’m probably not the right age for next year’s Wishbook cover, but knowing I have the feeling they’re going for.

Thank you, Amy, for coming with and getting these pictures for me.

If you want to know more about Sears Gift Cards, that’s here.

The preceding was a sponsored post. For more information about the sponsor SEARS or the contest see Izea.
It’s the spirit of the season!! Thank you.

    Hi Liz! How cool is this? Sounds like you had a fabulous time! I tweeted for the Images, Music, and Words wish gift… what a dream!

    I keep seeing these $500 gift card giveaways popping up all over, but this is the first time I’ve seen one blogger (you) be setting up packages and giving away, not one, but three!

    You go, Liz. :)

    Thanks for doing this post, Liz! I know you had some great fun with it and the good folks at Izea and at Sears I’m sure have had fun too! I twittered about the images, words and music package. I’d so love to win this! It would go a long way in providing some measure of help for my favorite charity (Alzheimer’s Association) through a local nursing home. Its my wish that we find a cure for this awful disease and I’m working hard this year to see that we do! I hope your Christmas is Merry and full of the spirit that you show every day!

    I’d very much like the images words and music package …

    I’ve been a very good girl.

    When the sears catalog was old, meaning when it was past christmas we used to tear it apart and collage all the images - I had forgotten about that

    Liz,

    Talking about the holiday catalogues brings back such wonderful memories. As kids, my sister and I would dig through the Sears catalog circling things we wished for. It was like a fantasy.

    I’m all grown up now, but still a big catalog browser. Browsing the choices above, I’d love to win the Images, Music, and Words collection.

    Thanks for taking part in this Sears effort to share a little joy during the holidays.

    Cheers.

    Oh, Liz. How I loved the Wishbook! Thanks for reviving my fond memory of the countless hours I spent “studying” the Wishbook–imagining all of the possibilities it presented and deciding which ones to campaign for. I was a privileged child in every way, but one of the greatest privileges was the creative opportunity the Wishbook permitted for me to choose the toys and other delights that would most suit me.

    You have done a great job of putting together three enticing gift packages. In the unlikely event my name is selected, your third package is my favorite.

    Thanks again for providing me with a mental excursion to a very happy childhood experience.

    I live in Phoenix now but I am originally from Milwaukee, WI. I’d love the Chicago package to surprise my husband with. We could reminisce about how he proposed to me at the Navy Pier. It was wonderful, except for the frigid cold temps in mid-September. I had a hard time concentrating and I don’t remember most of what he said because the wind was whipping so hard! All I could think about is “let’s go inside!”. Anyway, we’ve had so many good times there it would be fun to watch the Chicago DVD’s!

    Thanks and Happy Holidays!

    generally I am not a receiver, and even though Santa is economically challanged (seriously)… i always do a little to help others as often as possible. I figure in the end, it is all karma right? one day the good shall flow back in my direction!

I have so missed seeing her beautiful pictures (her camera broke). I have entered every contest imaginable to win her a camera, but alas it is almost Christmas, and I haven’t been able to get one. sad face:( It would make me exceedingly happy to be able to get one for her for Christmas.

With 3 kidlets (a teen, a tween, and a tot) I could use the camera to be kept in my purse to catch all those unexpected moments no matter where we are. My husband works long hours (12+ every day) and never complains about what he doesn’t have. I know that he could really use the iPod for when he goes running or on the long drives from one job to another! And I would love the notebooks to write down my thoughts and unload my brain before bedtime! Thanks so much for the chance!

This package would truly bring so much fun and entertainment for my family! Thank you for the fantastic opportunity to enter. Happy Holidays to all!

    Aw, don’t be silly. You’re never too old or young to have fun, or take pictures with lit-up reindeer! ;)
    Glad you had fun, because sometimes, with all the work that surrounds us, people do forget to enjoy themselves a bit.

    If I were to choose one of these, I would choose the Images, Music, and Words package. My younger brother has been longing for a few items recently, one being a digital camera, but I haven’t gotten around to getting that for him since I just bought him an iPod. And I certainly wouldn’t mind having an iPod of my own!

    Thanks for hosting this giveaway! I’m sure whoever ultimately wins will be extremely grateful!

    Reading your post brings back fond memories of my own. My mom also used to sit my sister and I down with the Sears catalog when we were little to shop for Christmas gifts. Of course, as children, we had no idea of the sacrifices our parents made to make us happy. During the holiday season, I like to take a little time to reflect on how lucky I have been to have been blessed with such a wonderful family all my life.

    I would like to enter for the Images, Music and Words prize package. Thank you for the opportunity to win. Happy holidays to you and your family.

    Isn’t that part of the child within us all wanting to Believe in the Magic of the Season!?!
    May I never become to old to believe with awe and wonder during the holiday season.

    I remember the Wishbook well. When it came in the mail, I got my pen and circled all of the gifts I wanted my parents to get for me. Then I turned down the pages where the items I really wanted were located. Luckily my parents had a good sense of humor because the wishbook had so many wishes pointed out in it.

    I distinctly remember a great Christmas where my wish came true. I asked Santa for the Atari game system because I had seen it on television. I was about 8 and at the age when I wasn’t sure if Santa was real or not. A day or two I found the mailing slip from Sears addressed to my Mom and the Atari system was on it. So there wasn’t a Santa, but Mom made sure that a game I really wanted was MINE! For the next two days, I waited it out quietly knowing that my wish came true.

    I am wishing for the Cool Tools because I want to have a set of tools that are mine. My sweetie hides the tools on me. That screwdriver looks very useful for putting up blinds.

    You brought me back to my own childhood. we had to make out our wishlist with the same promise for our dad (parents were divorced)…wow…hard to believe this was the same deal I had going at christmas…
    anyway, I chose Images, Music, and Words — we’ve had to sell so many of our stuff here to keep afloat, that it would be so exciting to replace a few things for hubby for him losing his stuff…awesome giveaway idea!
