One thing to remember, is that whatever algorithms the program uses to determine what offers members should get are likely based on typical shoppers. And many members of SC are not typical shoppers, in the sense of how much people stock up on. Although many members of SC have stock piles (large or small), the average grocery shopper does not. So while a member of SC might buy 10 of an item that is on for a really good price, to see the family through for a few months, an average grocery shopper might buy one or two. Therefore, the program does not yet recognize that your shopping habits include stocking up on items only a few times a year, as opposed to buying the same type of item on a weekly, or every second or third week cycle. I don't know if the algorithm will ever recognize that type of pattern.
