(BLACK PR WIRE)Hoffman Estates, Ill., (Oct. 14, 2009) -- Sears takes online layaway to barbershops to give potential shoppers a firsthand experience. Ronald Larry, a regular patron of De' Bon's Barber Shop, tries shopping Sears’ new online layaway for the first time as barber Tawan Brazier, looks on. "Now that Sears has layaway online, not only is it easy on my wallet, it’s easy on my time. I can even get that new flat screen TV I want, and have it in time for Christmas," Larry commented. New online layaway is one of many new convenient shopping options recently unveiled by Sears as part of its new ShopYourWay initiative. Now, customers can shop 24/7 and get what they want any time, any place, any way. Visit www.sears.com/layaway for more information.
