On Unemployment? Get $10 FREE Merchandise Plus 20% Discounts--Sign Up for KMart's Smart Assist Savings Card

KMart now offers special deals for the unemployed. THANK YOU, KMART! Sign up to get one of their Smart Assist Savings cards and you will get $10 in free products and a 20% discount off regular priced basic necessities. This reusable card gives unemployed people discounts to buy milk, shampoo and 1,500 other basic items. The qualifying products come from their grocery and drug store sections of the store.

When I saw this program, I just had to share with my readers. We have so many still unemployed in this dreadfully sluggish economy, that it's very nice to see corporations doing something that really helps the masses.

See, the business world isn't nearly as evil as Obama would lead you to believe. Besides, who will the unemployed remember when they get a job? KMart, of course. They will return time and time again, as they should. People remember who was there for them in bad times and who was not there.

Here is the link:  KMart's Smart Assist Savings Card
If anyone is aware of other programs to help the unemployed, please post them in the comments section of this post so others can see and take advantage of them.

Thanks,

Malinda

    Hi Malinda, I hadn't heard about Kmart doing this - it sounds like a great program and I'll look into it. I know Kmart has been struggling for a long time - this will certainly help with customer 'loyalty'. Thanks for the post and thanks for stopping by WynnieBee's Foto Friday. It's running every Friday so I hope you stop by again to show us more beautiful Laura Paige rings : D

    Yes, I thought this was a great idea. Kmart knows hard times. Maybe that's why they can relate to the unemployed. I applaud them for what they are doing. Smart business move if you ask me. Plus a VERY nice thing to do for people who could really use a boost. It's always good to see you in the comments section. Come again soon.

    Hi, Maureen! Welcome to the Malinda Winkle blog. I thought this was an awesome idea on the part of Kmart and had to share with with all my friends and followers. Kmart has had it bad days. Maybe they can identify with what the average family is enduring in this economy. If so, good for them!
