Because I have better things to do
Today is Friday, and is often the case by the end of the work week, the only thing keeping me from showing up at the office in my pajamas is fear of public humiliation (come to think of it, the same is true of Mondays).
So once the weekend arrives, low on the list of Things I Want to Spend My Last Remaining Shreds of Energy On is domicile upkeep. Oh, I'm fine with the vacuuming and grocery shopping and litter-box changing, but when it comes to household maintenance that eats up a goodly chunk of the weekend (especially because I spend so much time figuring out how to do things), I'd rather pay someone to do it. In the long run, it's worth it to me to have the work done quickly and right the first time.
Fortunately, I don't have to do a lot of asking around to find people to take on the jobs I don't want to take on. Sears Home Services does a lot of what I need done, like cleaning grout and sucking the lint out of the dryer vent. I don't even have to take time to dial the phone (do people still use the word "dial"?), because I can schedule online.
That frees up weekend time for other things, like shopping for new pajamas. Just in case.

Hello Clyde, this is Tino from the Sears Blue Service Crew and I apologize your refrigerator is giving you some trouble. I understand How having your refrigerator leak from somewhere can be a mess and I will be happy to assist you. If the moisture is not being cause by liquids being spilled or frozen foods being thawed, then is seems like the problem is the door seal. Refrigerator doors that do not seal well allow warm, moist air to leak into the fresh food compartment. This moisture can condense on interior surfaces and will freeze around cold air vents. Be sure the area around the door is clear before closing and if the door seal is sticky it can be cleaned with a soft sponge, mild soap and warm water. If that does not help, I recommend to set service and you can contact us at 1-800-424-2047 where any of our associates will gladly assist you. Please feel free to set this service up on our www.SearsHomeServices.com website as well.

Erin, it's a great point that you make here. If you are a Provider of a home-related service, it great when someone finds you after searching for your service. It's MUCH better however, if they already think of you as soon as they realize the need. Think about sending out postcards or refrigerator magnets with your contact info to your local neighborhoods.
