Thank you!

Hopefully SDM sells essential oils and I can do a bit of trial and error at the cash until code shows up. I've never shopped in this category so should be interesting.

The SDM website has a Natural Health Products webpage.

Thanks!

Just scrolled through and noticed a couple oils (daughter is into this stuff) and LB cranberries in the bag. Thinking I'll printout the 8 pages to take with me.

I think it'll be quick to spend $30.

Update. Jamieson vitamins on a great sale, so had no time to test out other 'natural health' products today. If I get this offer again, I'll try other items.

Not sure if this is the place to post this...but I heard from the PC ppl that they are in the process of changing the loyalty program at SDM. This was going to be a given since the acquisition happened. They will be accepting PC plus at SDM, but they will no longer be offering Optimum offers. Since they dont want to lose loyal SDM members in the process, the Optimum program will still be active but only for redemptions, until they terminate this program entirely. I heard that they want to completely switch over by next year.

So I imagine this also means no more 20x, WUS deals, etc in SDM's future...?
I guess it makes sense, they would lose out if they kept and accepted both loyalty programs at SDM

Whattttttt?
I have over $1000 worth of points in my cards.

[annedougherty]

Well it would be a shame to have to boycott sdm if they would dare do such a thing lol

[amira84]

I just hope it's a rumour. A bad, bad rumour! Yikes.

[collegekid]

I will abandon SDM for Walmart in a heartbeat without a second thought if they get rid of the Optimum program! Hope Galen Weston is monitoring this forum LOL

It REALLY pains me to say this but I think I would do the same. I would stick to frescho, food basics, and Walmart. Hell I would probably get a Costco membership at that point. I would go to fortinos to grab new coupons and get the hell out lol.

Oh please! Let's give them a little bit more realistic threats. Lol.
Like sobeys or metro or safeway. Not walmart. They probably know a lot of Canadians prefer loblaws banner store over walmart.
