I stopped into a Jared's Jeweler chain store recently to see if they could change the battery in a Movado Watch. They took my watch and told me to speak with a sales associate.
I was told the watch battery replacement would be $15.99 (OUTRAGEOUS) but free if I filled out a Jared credit card application. I am sucker for a free service and asked if there is an annual fee on their cards and they said no. I filled out the form, got a new battery and walked out the store. Six days later I got the credit card in the mail.
I will cancel the card because I have not intention on shopping at Jared. However, I love a free deal. I do not know if it is store policy for all Jared's but you can ask. If you need a watch battery replacement, check out Jared's to take advantage of this freebie.
Other tips: To save money and the hassle pick up SE 16 PCS Watch Tool Kit from Amazon.com for a cool $7.79.
NOTE: A local jewelry store will only charge $5 or $6 for the same service. I only stopped into Jared's because I was in the neighborhood.
