    There were two redemption events in December 2010. In December 2011 there were supposed to be two but the second one got cancelled.

    Considering my mom is leaving the country well before Christmas and I would hate to stress over getting Christmas gifts late, I am redeeming all my points this weekend for gifts. Sure, I could luck out with $40 higher of a redemption later and kick myself, but I don't know at this point if it's worth the stress for me. I will take what I can get.

    There's a value in knowing that you have what you needed and you got it in time. I fully admit that I have been known to pay more for something just because the stress wasn't worth the extra money for me.

    Wasn't the 2010 one done because they were changing the point value on January 1st and were giving people a chance to redeem before then or am I thinking of something else?

    Yes I think it was, but since the levels are different for this redemption it may not follow the 2011 schedule either

    today the manager of an SDM i was at said next weekend is 20x.

    no clue if everyone knows about it yet, i haven't been checking the forums for a few days.

    sorry if this is repeat info!


    i guess they were hoping ppl would buy the nexus tablets then, instead of everyone snatching them up this weekend and redeeming for them! DOH!

    Was it? All I remember was that it happened when my sister's mother in law was down and she only comes at Christmas and 2 weeks in the summer so I guess it must have been a summer visit.

    We might get another redemption, if enough people didn't redeem this Dec event.
    Have they ever had a Jan $200 Redemption? It tends to be worst month of year for sales.

    I think at 20x points, it makes it still just as great of a purchase (maybe even better)... 20x points on 270$ is 54000 points - which even at 170$ redemption is worth just under 100$. Same goes for other electronics, wii u, etc. 20x points days are the 2nd best days of the year to shop at SDM.

    Unfortunately all the nexus7 will probably be gone by then it seems!

    ^ yeah but some ppl might be more in the mood for redeeming for it, rather than paying for it out of pocket, even with all the math

    and yes, i am pretty sure they will be mostly gone. now to see if they will have it in the flyer.
