I have 215000 pts currently on my card. I have redeemed over 100.00 so far. Until just a couple weeks ago I only had the option to shop at Independent. Now that no frills is on board, I'm hoping to rack up more points alot faster.

I don't have many just shy of 19, 000 as I redeemed $20 Thanksgiving weekend! Trying to save, save, save for Christmas gifts!
Be careful abt shop at no frills. Since last 3 transactions. . I didnt get any points. Still havent got the points inquiry answered.
same happened to me need to send email each time.
ok just tell me, you have 2 pc plus cards like 2 SDM optimum card right? so receiving 2 sets of offers. But can you redeem those directly from that cards without a PC debit or credit card? or must need to connect that to a pc debit or credit card? Now my husband has PC credit card and I have a supplementary card and we r receiving offers on dh name. If I get a PC plus card for getting 2 sets of offers, for redeeming points I think I have to connect it to our credit card and it mean one account. Just confused how we can get 2 different sets of offers. Only start using this program when it came to nofrill.

We don't have a pc credit or debit card they are not connected. We can redeem points from the card alone. If you connect both to your credit card then you will only get one set of offers. I would connect one card to credit card and have one unconnected so you get 2 sets of offers.Quote:

Yes. Have to jump on mark down meat when I see it. Bought 8 whole chickens awhile ago for about $1.78 lb. Lean beef for 99 cents a pound. I bought 45 lbs! It's long gone. Brought homemade burgers to pool parties often!
Thanks its great then, I was confused as I thought I read here on this thread some where that we can collect points on pc plus card but need PC credit card for redeeming. Glad my thinking was wrong.

I only have the PC Plus card (no debit or credit account with them), so I can't speak to the perks or limitations of their bank linked PC points system.
DH has 143000 pts on his card and i have 136000 pts on my card. Saving these pts for christmas time. We dont celebrate christmas but we love that time of the year. The celebration feeling in every mall/store is so fascinating! :)

👌post deleted misunderstood previous post
Not sure, I'm at 4500 points...so I still have a ways to go before redeeming. This is the information I have gathered from various posts on this thread. Changes to this program have been made in the last few months - people used to be able to redeem for GCs, but this practice seems to have stopped.Quote:

Not completely. you can still redeem points for GCs if you have a PC M/C linked to the PC Plus point acct.Quote:

I think the reason it still works using PC M/C is because they combine both PC Plus points & PC points earned using PC M/C from inside and outside of stores related to Loblaw/RCSS. If they want to stop points earned from PC Plus and allow regular PC points from redeeming for GCs, then they have to change the system to do that. I don't think they want to make PC M/C users mad so they would stop using their PC M/C outside of Loblaw stores because they can't redeem their regular PC points for GCs.Quote:

No it is not an error. You won't get points if you have an offer like spend 30 get5000 points. If you redeem points with this kind,of offer you won't get points, but regular offers you can redeem and still get points.Quote:

I guess they consider the taxable items to be discounted by the amount of the tax but that you're still actually paying the tax, rather than it truly being the case that the items are tax-free. I had a spend $30 get 3000 points offer recently, and I was careful to make sure I spent enough over the $30 to make up for any tax discount I would get, as I suspect the offer would not apply otherwise because of the strange way they apply the tax discount.
If you have a PC M/C linked to your PC Plus acct, you can redeem 30k points for PC GC first, then use the PC GC to pay for your purchase to get bonus points.Quote:

Yes,I sent in a inquiry yesterday and have not received any kind of response.Quote:

ON checkout, it would only give me 60,000 pts because the way they apply the discount on no tax days actual reduces your pre-tax amount. To fix this, they manually applied 20,000 pts for me. I then went to spend $97 and use 90,000 pts, and it would not let me, so to remedy it, they gave me a $10 gift card to use on my purchase, and used the 80,000 pts it would let me use, because even they felt the way tax savings reduces your base amount was unfair.Quote:
