anne, I know what you mean. with me it is always getting an offer the VERY next week for an item I just bought! This week mine are the same lame 100 points for every $1.00 spent and NO bonus offers.
well I actually got quite a few offers this week -plus some new ones -Gatorade ,gain and then the same old ones
PC Plus is getting worse and worse for me. I can't even remember the last good deal I was offered.
And just for that very reason I used 2fpc mini wheats last wk and I got an offer for 600 pts for mini wheats this wk, so I am going to use the rest of my FPCs and make money this wk!!!Quote:

10 lbs potatoes are $1 in a store my NF price matches, so making .20 in points on that isn't bad :)Quote:

I WISH I could get 500 points on the celery Durham Couponer or 400 on EACH cucumber. I would PM up the ying yang with that! It is just so disappointing and repetitive to see week after week 10 cents off every $1.00 for most of my produce offers.
I had 200 pts on fresh pork so stocked up on ribs 5 pks @$12-$14 each
Used to love the offers on meat but I never get them anymore. Mostly no name stuff and enough with the salsa! This week one offer is for pc salsa and another for tostitos salsa....really?Quote:

i have 400 points on any minute maid frozen juice 295ml (excluding fruit punch bizarely) and its on sale at maxi for 50 cents!!! 10 cent juice!!! WOOOO
It depends on how you look at it. I'm going to shop at Independent Grocer anyways, regardless of whether pc points exist or not. So if I can get some points on fruits and veggies, why not?Quote:

Now I am re-thinking about Starbucks offer IF I can get a sneaky hold of forbidden forced-to-made peelie like tear pad for $1 off! I am hell of a surprise that my points align for Ms. Vickies [i.e. it was for 2.77 and I bought two so got 1600 points]...I have NEVER had points aligning moment beforeQuote:

Way to reward your best customers
Maybe there's going to be bonus offers later in the week?
I got the same offer... 6600 pts I ended up getting for the pork alone! This week has been good for points... so far, I've increased my pts total by 13200 since Friday.... with 4400 worth still to come on my next trip. :)Quote:

My wife got a whopping 4 pathetic deals this week and she shops there more than I do. I did get a half decent deal on starbucks drinks. 1400 pts each. I had this offer before at 1800 pts and a 200 instore making them free @$1.99 each at that time. Long story short I liked the mocha coffee double shot cans 444ml so I bought 20 today cost 60 cents each after points not bad. Otherwise pretty much same deals I get every single week offering little points.
I need a natural value section offer...it has been forever since I had one and please can I have spend $50 get 5000 points offer at the same time. Not very many good offers lately...same ones every week. Maybe I need to get rid of some points:shrug:.perhaps I should get my dog a card and see if he gets better offers.
Got an offer 200 pts WUS $1 on Iogo drinkable. I was happy to combine it with Maxi sale 0.50 iOGO Nomad, ended up paying 0.40 pls tx.
Question - those of you that get offers of 100 points per $1 on produce items (or others), do you/have you shopped at No Frills? The 100 point value instead of 200 point value seems to have appeared after NF got added to the points program. (knock on wood) my offers have continued to be 200pts/$. I don't have a NF in my area, so haven't shopped there.
I shop at NF/Zehrs/RCSS and get the 200/1.00 on bananas, broccoli, cauliflower, oranges. I've noticed point offers have been 'bland' for a while for me, even though I've stepped up where I shop. I rarely go to FB/Sobeys/Freshco b/c I can price match at NF/RCSS.
I've actually had a decrease in the point value for lots of items but the produce has remained the same. BUT, I've purchased strawberries at all 3 stores for the past month with my FPC from kelloggs and not one strawberry offer yet!!

Had some Good News and Bad News yesterday re: DAWN Dish Soap ...
The Good: Happened to check my account and a Bonus Offer arrived mid day....600pts for every $2 spent; I already had a 400pt offer, which was about to expire. Checking Salewhale, I found them at NF for $1.97; Quick trip to RCSS, grabbed (6) and asked the cashier nicely to ring em in at $2.00 even for the PM, which she did, but with the usual raised eyebrow, when I make this type of request. Anyway, this double points opportunity yielded 6,000pts, so netted to $1.00 each.
The Bad: The contents is no longer the familiar 709ml, but has been reduced to 638ml. That's a 10% PRICE INCREASE folks, since both the reg. shelf price, and Sale price remain virtual the same as before.
This is just another example of this scary, despicable stealth, sneaky way that companies are giving themselves price increases Way above the rate of inflation. Other than a 30min. Marketplace segment "The Incredible Shrinking Package" a few weeks ago... link below... I hear Nothing about this in the media! Grrrrrrrrrrrr!!!

I hear you Pointsman, I also received that bonus Dawn offer, but I might not bother using it, as you said the volume is smaller in the bottles. Plus I only have the bonus offer, no other. Ugh...trying to save on the small things gets tougher each month.
My bonus points were pathetic this week. 400 for a bunch of dollars spent on onions. The point are so low it's not worth shopping there.
+ I like to shop on Thursday and my bonus offers only come on Thursday afternoon after I'm already done.
