Filed under: Automobile, Coupons 

Sears Auto Center has a good bargain going on right now.  For only $16.99 you can receive an oil change featuring Valvoline Oil.  There are no disposal or shop fees and most vehicles are eligible for this special.  Both appointments and drive-ins are welcome.  This oil change retails at $29.99.  The $16.99 price is one of the lowest oil change prices we’ve seen in a long time.  Typically an oil change around the Milwaukee area will be on sale for about $19.99.  The ad we saw for the Sears Memorial Day Sale did not specify how long this offer is good for, and participation could vary by store, so we suggest giving them a call ahead of time to ensure the deal is still on for the location nearest you.

An oil change at Sears Auto Center also features the following services free of charge:

  • Brake fluid inspection and power steering fluid inspection
  • Belt and pulley inspection
  • Transmission fluid inspection
  • Service interval schedule consultation
  • Headlight, taillight, and brake light inspection
  • Multi-point inspection
  • Wiper blade inspection
  • Tread-depth and tire pressure check

Also, all maintenance and mechanical services are on sale at Sears.  Visit SearsAuto.com for information on their Memorial Day sale, and other coupons and offers.

Upromise is a service that helps families earn, save and pay for higher education.  With Upromise, families can automatically save money for college while making everyday purchases, such as buying groceries and dining out.

What is the Upromise Dining Program?

The Upromise Dining program offers Preferred Diners 4%-8% contributions on eligible transactions, while the standard Upromise benefit level is only 2%-4%.  It’s free to join the Upromise Dining program, so why not join?  The $15 Dining Bonus offered by the Upromise is for members (called “Preferred Diners”) of the Upromise Dining program only.

Upromise also promotes a high-yield savings account from Sallie Mae.  The current rate on the high-yield savings account is 1.4%, which is one of the best in the nation.  The kicker is that Sallie Mae gives a 10% annual match on Upromise earnings provided the following conditions are met:

  • To be eligible for the 10% annual match on your Upromise earnings from Upromise you must link your High-Yield Savings Account to your Upromise Account.
  • Within 90 days of opening your High-Yield Savings Account, either:
    • (1) set up an Automatic Savings Plan with a monthly deposit of $25 or more, or
    • (2) fund the account with $5,000 or more.
  • Upromise will match 10% of your Upromise earnings posted as ”funded” to your Upromise Account during the calendar year of January 1 through December 31.
  • The 10% annual match will be deposited into your High-Yield Savings Account in February of the following year provided that both accounts remain active and are in good standing at the time of transfer.
  • Upromise may change or terminate the 10% annual match offer at any time without notice.
  • Other terms and conditions may apply.
  • The Sallie Mae High-Yield Savings Account is FDIC insured.
  • Upromise Accounts are not FDIC insured, carry no bank guarantee and may lose value.
