Ocean State Job Lot Highlights Spring Savings for Earth Month

Retailer highlights practical seasonal purchases for lawn care, gardening, outdoor living, and home projects, including select items that may offer customers more than one way to save

Ocean State Job Lot (OSJL), home of Crazy Deals® and one of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic’s leading discount retail chains, is using Earth Month as an opportunity to spotlight practical spring purchases that may help customers save on the seasonal home essentials, from yard cleanup tools and gardening must-haves, to outdoor living and practical home upgrades. Through OSJL’s Crazy Deal® program, select items come with a Crazy Deal® Gift Card, a merchandise credit that can be used for future shopping at OSJL stores and on its website.

Products available online included in the promotion range from planting and lawn care, watering and irrigation supplies, outdoor toys, water sports equipment, and fire pits.

There are currently more than 1,000 items available online that allow Job Lot Insiders to receive 100% back in Crazy Deal® Gift Cards, including the Rheem 50-gallon Hybrid Electric Heat Pump Water Heater, priced at $2,000 with a $2,000 Crazy Deal® Gift Card; the Vita Mezza Herb Farm, priced at $149.99 with a $149.99 Crazy Deal® Gift Card; the Slokey Discover The World SkyWays 40070 Telescope, priced at $99.99 with a $99.99 Crazy Deal® Gift Card; the BOTE 10′ x 6″ Breeze Gatorshell Native Paddle Board with Paddle, priced at $799.99 with a $799.99 Crazy Deal® Gift Card; and an Endless Summer 30″ Steel Frame Gas Fire Pit, priced at $249.99 with a $249.99 Crazy Deal® Gift Card.

“At Ocean State Job Lot, we believe value is about getting the best prices on quality items while making your money work harder for you,” said Luke Estep, Chief Marketing Officer, Ocean State Job Lot. “With our Crazy Deals®, you can pick up a major home upgrade or seasonal essential and earn the entire purchase price back in a Crazy Deal® Gift Card. For our customers, it’s like shopping for free for everyday essentials; they get the big-ticket items they want, while the gift card covers their next haul of household staples like Tide, Crest, Charmin, and Bob’s Red Mill.”

A highlight of the promotion is the Rheem heat pump water heater. In addition to the $2,000 Crazy Deal® Gift Card currently offered through OSJL, eligible shoppers in some markets may also qualify for separate heat pump water heater rebates or incentives through utility or state programs. For example, eligible Rhode Island customers may also qualify for a separate rebate through Rhode Island Energy. Rhode Island Energy’s current rebate page says customers can save up to $600 on qualifying electric heat pump water heaters, creating an added opportunity for shoppers to lower their costs even further.

Customers interested in taking advantage of Crazy Deals® and other seasonal offers can join the Job Lot Insider® Club for free, either online or in stores. According to OSJL’s current Insider Club materials, membership includes access to exclusive pricing, special promotions, Crazy Deals®, digital receipts, paperless coupons, returns without receipts, and the ability to purchase Buy Online, Ship to Store items.

OSJL’s Buy Online, Ship to Store program gives customers another way to take advantage of these savings opportunities. Buy Online items are available for pickup at a local Ocean State Job Lot store, and many online items also carry Crazy Deal® offers. When logged into their Insider account, customers can see which online products qualify, place an order for store pickup, and receive a Crazy Deal® Gift Card with eligible purchases, helping them extend the value of seasonal shopping beyond the initial transaction.

Customers can browse current Crazy Deal® offers online and in stores throughout Ocean State Job Lot’s footprint. Product availability may vary by location and while supplies last. Customers interested in potential utility or state rebate opportunities should check directly with their local provider or program for current eligibility requirements and details.
