Holiday, Twitter Parties, , ,

I love the idea of layaway.  People use layaway to buy things they might not otherwise be able to buy for themselves, their kids, their parents, or friends.

Here are a few things you might now have known about Kmart Layaway:

  1. You can put items on layaway year-round at Kmart
  2.  You can layaway items online at Kmart.com
  3. You can calculate your layaway payments on Kmart.com here

Shop for virtually anything and bring your items to the Kmart layaway counter in the store or add them to your shopping cart online.Your down payment includes the Service Fee and is due when you initiate your contract.Make payments every two weeks online or at any Kmart register with cash, check or debit/credit card.

My Top 5 Ultimate #Layaway Wish List Items

RCA 42″ 1080p FULL HD LCD TV

This one would be for my husband, not me.  I’m not a huge fan of television but my husband is and really wants a new TV.

Gardman USA Inc. EasyStart 6 x 6 Greenhouse

This would be for my mom.  She loves gardening and has wanted a Greenhouse forever!

Garden Oasis Chesterfield 3-piece Patio Bistro Set

This would be for ME!  I am pretty happy with our back patio furniture set but we don’t have an ‘official’ set on our front patio which is where I sit 80% of the time I’m outside.

Craftsman 21 HP* Automatic 46″ Lawn Tractor (Available in 49 States)

This would be for my husband but for me, indirectly.  I appreciate that my husband enjoys mowing the yard but the entire process of mowing, blowing, and cleaning takes hours.  This handy riding mower would help save time and make the process more efficient, I’m sure!

Smooth Fitness CE 3.6 Elliptical

This would be for my husband and I. Our treadmill is pretty old and we are ready for a change of equipment.. how cool would this be?

KMart Layaway Twitter Party - November 3rd

Come join @StacieinAtlanta, @crissy, @jollymom and @mommyinsider (that’s me) at the Kmart Layaway Twitter Party this Thursday, November 3rd from 8-9:30 pm EST.

During the twitter party we will discuss how Kmart can us plan ahead for our holiday shopping and all things holiday related, and make the holidays a little less stressful.  Imagine that!  We will be giving away prizes (see below).

Kmart makes the layaway process simple.  And goodness knows, consumers are in need of layaway now more than almost ever.. so take advantage of layaway services and learn more about them at our Twitter party tonight!
How to layaway at Kmart: Shop, take your items to the layaway counter, or add them to your shopping cart online.  You then pay a down payment which includes a service fee, and after that you make payments on the items you put on layaway, every two weeks until the last scheduled payment is made after which you can pick up for items!
