Shop Sears House Brand Sales and Deals

Sears cuts up to 40% off a selection of fitness and exercise equipment. (Discounted prices are as marked.) Plus, get an extra $5 off most orders of $50 or more via coupon code "SEARS2013". Alternatively, coupon code "SEARS35OFF300AFFILIATEDEALS" takes an extra $35 off orders of $300 or more. (The coupons don't stack.) Even better, Shop Your Way Reward members get up to 10% in points with a qualifying purchase. (Not a member? It's free to sign up.) Shipping starts at $5.75, or choose free in-store pickup to avoid more expensive shipping on larger items. That's tied with our mention from last week and among the best discounts we've seen on fitness equipment from Sears in recent months, although we saw a similar sale with free shipping via Shop Your Way Max three weeks ago.

A best bet is the Pure Fitness Mini Stepper with Stretch Cords (pictured), model no. 8529MS, for $58.49 before coupon code "SEARS2013", $53.49 after. Opt for in-store pickup to avoid the $18.10 shipping charge. That's the lowest price we could find by $16. It features textured foot pads, dual hydraulic cylinders and electronic readout displays.

Skip the gym and enjoy the fresh air a la a bicycling regimen. Of course, you'll soon find that cycling longer distances can present a physical challenge, manifested in sore feet and hands, a sweaty body, and a tender posterior. That's where the proper cycling clothing and equipment specially made for bicycling can come to the rescue.

For in-store pickup only, Sears offers this 24" Poly Leaf Rake, model no. 1920200, for $4.39. That's $9 under the lowest total price we could find for such a rake, although we saw this model for pennies less in November. This made-in-the-USA rake has a wooden handle.
