>>I received this email and I would like to know if it is true. If it is,

>>of another store for a like item even if it was cheaper at the other store.
>>Here is their answer to my email......................

>>Dear Customer:

>>The information is factual. We appreciate your positive feedback. Sears
>>regards service to our country as one of greatest sacrifices our young men
