I know Bugga. It opens up a whole new world to me now.....

Mhmm. I guess that means we can buy SDM gift cards on mega redemption day and come back and shop at our convenience?

FB shoppers is so cray cray.

Why do they even bother to have a facebook page if they aren't even going to give correct information? What a friggin' farce.

It's wrong. I'm sure of it. You used to be able to do that like 10yrs ago, but no longer. It's in the terms and conditions.

I thought so but maybe I could argue my case by showing them the FB screen shot????

I really think SDM needs to be held accountable for their FB blunders,etc......

Exactly. That FB response will create a huge chaos. The SDM FB page does not have any credibility at all. Definitely WRONG information!

No. You cannot use optimum points to purchase GCs.

I agree but at some point SDM should be held accountable for what they post whether it contradicts their T&C.

The FB page is posting far too much "misinformation" that HO should either shut it down OR hire qualified people to run it.

You couldnt even force them to do it since the system does know its not allowed
