I went to the Sears hardware to get vacuum cleaner bags for my Kenmore vac as well as the 4x6 inch Hepa filter. I noted the bags were 3 for $6, that is $2 apiece. I had seen them online at vacuuminc.com in bags of 10 for 9.99 which is $1 each or half the price. But I needed the bags that day. While I was at it, I saw my Hepa filter on the peg for 9.99. So I take my filter and bags up to the cash register and the total was 28 bucks and some change. I said that;s not right. The clerk said that the filter was 19.99 not 9.99. She sent another clerk back and he brought a hook up with the filters and it said 19.99. Not to be out done, I walked back there and found the hook (full of the same filters) that said 9.99. They simply did not care!!! Granted that someone evidently filled the wrong hood with my filters, but SINCE WHEN DOES A PART THAT TAKES 29 CENTS TO MAKE COST 20 BUCKS!! So I told them they could keep their filters. I went online, ordered 10 bags and 1 filter for less than the cost of one of their filters in the store. THEY SHOULD CLOSE THEIR DOORS IF THAT IS THEIR PRICING POLICY. FLEECE THE PUBLIC AND BUSINESS BE DAMNED. From now on I order online. No more Sears.
