IS: Free Sears Halloween Portrait Collage
Not content with giving away free toys on Halloween (more on that soon!), Sears is also giving away a free Halloween-themed portrait collage worth $44! You’ve got until Saturday, October 31 to use the coupon and the fine print says nothing about making an additional purchase.* So if your kid looks especially cute in their costume this year (and come on, how can they not?), you might want to take advantage of this.
*According to Freebies 4 Mom, some people have had mixed success with this. If you’re interested, make sure to call your local store and confirm they’re participating.
I was a Sears Portrait manager for several years… They wouldn’t allow just the freebie, They’ll require you to make a purchase.
I found free calendar 2010 here:

Hope u’ll post it so everyone can enjoy =)
thank you for posting this one , i just got back from sears . i got my daughter’s picture in her halloween costume ( she was a kitty kat ) . it was a collage picture . it was completely free . yes they asked if i wanted to buy any more pictures but i didn’t . it is a great picture collage . thanks so much .
I live in Michigan.. I went to the Roseville sears and they said: I had to pay a sitting fee for my son because the picture is only for 1 person and then the sales pressure to buy more was intense they acted like I was steeling because I only wanted the free picture.
I went to the Security Square location in Maryland. Terrible wait time (they were running an hour late on all appointments) and they required a $14.99 print purchase before giving you the free Halloween print. Very shady – I’d rather use JCPenney or the Picture People.
my fiance and i went to sears to get this freebie and it was great. we paid nothing at all not even a sitting fee and the entire staff was friendly. we will be getting our pictures in one week yayy
Usually Sears always pulls some “hidden fee” out of their collective hat when you arrive. So-BUYER BEWARE!
***If you were indeed lucky enough to get your portraits “free of charge” then you were definately the exception- not the rule. (see comment #1)
I’ve found through the years that Sears is not a place to go for pic’s unless you want to spend hundreds of $$. If I’m paying that kind of cash then I am going to my local PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER- not to a high-pressure sales person who gets paid $8.00 pr. hr. and who may/may not know how to take a decent picture!
(Now that everything is going digital- RETOUCHING your photo is a problem and a whole lot of extra $$ as well!!)
***My humble advice…If you want a pretty good pic at a fantastic price- Walmart can’t be beat. What is listed is what you will pay in the end.
