No, Sears Does Not Owe You A $700 Play House For $12

Shoppers noticed something amazing on Sears.com yesterday: kids’ accessories, toys, and play sets that cost hundreds of dollars were available on Sears.com for only $11.95 for no obvious reason. Parents, deal-hunters, and people who are both flocked to the website to fill up their carts with deeply discounted goodies. What happened next should be familiar to Consumerist readers: the amazing deal was a website glitch, and the orders were canceled. Following the standard pattern for these transactions, customers ran to complain to Sears about how their items from the “sale” had been cancelled.
