I use a Snapper with a front mount 3 blade mower and the engine in the rear. Only use it from the end of May until October. Gotta start it once in a while during the off season to keep it alive. Sears sucks. Wife got us a Sears charge card 15 years ago. She bought me some tools for Christmas and charged them. The bill didn't come. In March I get a call, why wasn't this bill paid? I asked the total and sent them a check for the full amount. I get another bill and call and ask for what? Interest was added. Ok, I send another check. I get another bill, call, we got the check but never entered it in time to avoid the interest. Ok, send them the last check, $0.12 with a warning I'm gonna sue. The gist is that we used to buy about a grand a year from Sears and haven't spent a penny with them since. The credit is a branch of the company so you can buy say a washer-dryer and have to pay on time even if they don't deliver it for a year. Fair credit act.
