Potential SDM brag

[Melody113]

I just got back from Shoppers with my groceries. The total was $50.48 before coupons and taxes. After coupons, it was $40. To the cashier's amazement, I got 15x the points on the full $50! (I knew from reading Sc that this would happen )

My next stop was the electronics department. After my purchases today, I have 75,000 points and I was hoping to get a Nintendo DS for my son for his birthday. They had some in stock, but my husband is working Saturday morning and I would have to bring three young children by myself at 8am if I want to be sure to get one. So, I asked if I could buy it with my credit card today, return it Saturday and use my points to buy it again on Saturday. The head cashier told me this shouldn't be a problem. I'm very excited - hopefully I'll get $200 back on Saturday and still keep the DS!

Has anyone else tried something like this with success before?

Yes my daughter did it with the Wii and the Wii fit plus she bought yesterday. We returned it this morning when we cashed out. They just kept it behind the counter for her while we shopped. I did it last time with my guys DSI. Next cashout I'm praying the new DSI 3D will have hit the market as that is going to be either his B-day or xmas main gift. Can't keep up any more.LOL
