Should I redeem now, or wait til the weekend?

Alright, so here's my dilemma. This coming flyer (Mar. 9-15) is the bonus redemption flyer, but it really doesn't have much for me. The only really exciting thing is that you get an extra $15 or $30 depending at what level you redeem at. Now this current flyer has ALOT of stuff for me and would have NO problem doing a full redemption ($170). But, this is what I'm wondering, can I do a redemption on a 20x points day and still get bonus points on stuff like physicians formula that is currently 20x the points? OR should I do a $220 transaction so I get 20x the points on the $50 OR do two seperate transactions
1) $50 worth of Physicians Formula that is already 20x plus another 19x or 20x points then do the MIR
2) Second transaction $170 redeemed with 2x pampers diapers VIB's
I can wait until Friday, but there's really no point if I can't use the 25% off coupon, right?

I'm sorry if this is really confusing but my brain isn't really co-operating with me today!

Any help would be very much appreciated!!

TIA

I am not an expert but I'm about 95% sure that when you redeem points you don't get any extra points that are advertised as 20x or 15x or 10x. The only way you can gain bonus pts during a redemption is if they are advertised as "800 bonus points with purchase" for example or if you have bonus point coupons for the item. Like a printable VIB coupon that gives 3000 bonus points for buying diapers or something like that.

Also, I noticed you're in Ontario like me; there's a very good chance that our promotion is different from the $15 or $30 bonus sdm card, we may get the usual $100 or $200 bonus redemption instead of $85 plus coupon or $170 plus coupon.

Hope this helps!

Kyles_Mama is correct.

DO NOT EARN:
10x, 20x etc. Wub a product
X amount of points wus $ (ie. Earn 1000 points wus $10 on Quo products)

DO EARN:
Bonus points attached to product without a coupon (ie. Buy any Quo product earn 500BP)
VIB coupon points

Another thing, unless you know for sure that your store has a lot of MIR left, don't count on it being there. My store didn't have any MIR left on the items that counted on the 20x.

and u can't redeem on a 20x day---you won't get any points when u redeem

Thanks everyone!! I wrote out two lists, one with the current flyer and one with the redemption flyer to compare and have decided to wait until Sunday to do the redemption.
