Yeah, I do not take part in every event, especially the spend x get a GC thats not really a GC but a $10 off x card but this is still my 3rd redemption (although its not at the highest amount)

It seems to be easier if you have little kids or can buy food there. My kids don't need nappies anymore..yay...and the food i buy there is really limited. Think i stocked up on Triscuit, may have bought some fish there once and some pasta but apart from that i can,t actually use the food there

[annedougherty]

yeah its a lot of work, and sometimes I look at the stuff they bought and think wtf did you need that for - and some people actually spend more just to get points

I have quite a bit of greenworks so I got 6 of the multipurpose cleaner and 6 wipes and dropped half of it off at a new animal shelter opening and the satincare well, M will have to start using satincare lol

I told A to use the Satin Care too lol. But yes, there are definitely people who spend more to get the points, which doesn't make any sense.

And that is the other problem, that once you make a list and have it all worked out something goes wrong when you get to SDM. If one SDM is out of something I tend to walk out and go try it at another SDM lol. To hard to come up with a plan b on the spot lol.

haha P&G have helped me get a lot of my points this year, I have done 3 bonus point days with the $9 coupons lol

[FallenPixels]

yeah I hate when they are sold out of stuff and you need a plan b

I buy alot of cheese there, milk , eggs are always a good price, butter, canned stuff is cheap at times, international delight, got lots of blueberry special K for .99 cents throughout the year. Bread is sometimes a good price. But yes, food is limited!

I need a calculator with me lol. That's another new year's resolution. It will cut down on SDM anxiety. But seriously, sometimes before I go to SDM on 20x the points day, I really have to work myself up to it lol. It is a real brain drain sometimes.

Hi VeeVee!

[kazm-l]

I have 4 sdms within driving distance but 2 give you a hard time about using coupons(1 is really really bad and make up their own rules if you ask me!), the third is in the opposite direction to everything else so i rarely go and the fourth is the furthest away but my fav. by far - as everyone is soo kind and actually polite.There final sale section is pretty good at times too

[VeeVee]

I am drained...I already want the move to be over lol

Question is it worth getting the Shoppers CC?

[FallenPixels]

oh yes, bread is usually fairly cheap there and milk is always cheapest there for this area ($3.99 per bag compared to $4.17 in grocery stores) and they often have cereal sales

Don't buy most of those things which doesn't help

[FallenPixels]

Mine are fairly good about coupons, I have occasional issues with them but I just get biatchy, ask for a manager and show them the official SDM policy on coupons

[annedougherty]

Hang in there VeeVee! lol

I don't have the SDM CC, but i guess it could be worth it if you have bug purchases to make elsewhere. But I like my HBC & PC credit cards.
