Last time they had an offer like this it showed up Friday around 7am (I can usually download my offers earlier, just after midnight)
haha yours was actually more helpful as it had the termsQuote:

That's strange. When the program rolled out with Loblaws, I didn't get a card. Only signed up online. And now, if I want a card, I have to use all my points on my phone 'card' and then get a new one - they cannot combine them (apparently, says a customer service agent a couple of months ago).Quote:

You can pick up a card (and key tags) at the CS desk, if you have the app on your phone you can add the card there or under My Account > PC Plus Cards at pcplus.ca
I won't be able to take advantage of the offer this week, but this offer is extra great if you have an RCSS and have products other than groceries you want to buy. With all the kitchen stuff, helath and beauty products, etc. this could be lucrative if done strategically. They have a sale on glassware and dinnerware, and on corningware. And on Christmas tree, lights and ornaments. If I weren't already done my Christmas shopping, I would be checking out RCSS to see what I could get from my list.Quote:

Have 0 pts still...
Just wondering how many points everyone has? Do you roll them? Are you saving them for something big? What would that be? Just curious. I'm saving mine....for now ;)
I haven't been buying for points, so haven't bought the big point offers. I've just been doing my regular grocery shopping, so as a result, I don't have a lot of points compared to many people.Quote:

By luck ( I like to think as a reward for planning on doing a nice thing :) ) I had a personal offer of 600 points on the oatmeal, so that upped my points total. I haven't gotten any of the 5k points for spending $20 on specificed products as it just hasn't matched my list. But I am pretty impressed that in 3 weeks, I have enough to get $20 towards groceries. I will probably accumulate points until Christmas, and then redeem, just to see how many points I accumulate in a month of shopping. I don't think there is purpose in holding on to the points as the points value doesn't increase with more points banked the way SDM points do.
I know they don't increase in value but I'm keeping mine so I can do a HUGE shop for $0.00. Sofar I have something like $130 in points (not just from point/offer shopping) and I was waiting until I need to do a major shop or maybe when I decide which GC's we can use :)
I used $20 of mine and am down to $18ish
Well poop on this "amazing" offer. What would make it truly amazing is if I could use it on gift cards or phone cards OR even if it was BEFORE coupons like SDM promos.
Because it will be after coupons there is no chance I will even come close to spending $100 out of pocket. I'll re-structure my shopping list now and RCSS will only be getting a tiny bit of my money or none at all. We shall see.
I'm saving my points currently. Not for anything special but more for "a rainy day" like I do with my airmiles. I only redeemed my airmiles recently because I was planning on getting something there anyways and they had the get 50 back when you redeem 95. I have 80,000 points thanks to buitoni pizza deal. I spent $12 OOP and I ended up with 40 pizzas, 5 Old Mil bagels and B12 vitamins.
You can redeem points for GC's?Quote:

I have 140,000 points after redeeming 40,000 points on soup (made 60,000 points on soup this morning) . i am holding on to mine...i am funny about redeeming points or spending gift cards...it seems like insurance to me in case something bad happens. but maybe save some points for gardening to buy all my plants?
I have noticed that when I go into PCPlus.ca on Friday morning to peruse any new offers, I usually receive the e-mail notification of new offers later in the day. Since flyers are prepared in advance, SCers at least know there might be a very nice pts offer starting Friday if they so desire to get it loaded onto their card via their account.
I have $355.00 worth on my MC. $37.00 worth on my points card. Saving them for the new year :)Quote:

Also my personal offers now state "offer expires after one use on subsequent transactions. we reserve the right to limit quantity" and a bunch of other stuff.
Did it always say that? Ive never noticed till now...which sucks cuz this is the one time ive gotten my personal coupons that id actually like to use more then once lol

Today I bought 10 of the Lysol No-Touch System that were on special at $9.99. I used 10 x $5 coupons and another small thing to reach the $100 and I did get the 20,000 bonus plus the 5,000 each Lysol product. Total points 70,000 points worth $70. So you CAN use coupons to lower your out of pocket.
The 20k points WUS $100 starts tomorrow and therefore will show tomorrow, I think I mentioned it above, but they had a WUS $80 offer before and it came a little later than my offers did
And yes, personal coupons have always been one transaction but you can buy multiples in one transaction

Do your flyers start on Thursday? I'm in Ontario where our flyers start on Friday. I don't get personal offers until Friday and I haven't received this offer yet. Will probably get it tomorrow.Quote:

Yes Purple Bunny, you can redeem your pts for GCs
Our flyers start Thursday here and I was sent the notification email this a.m. and was able to load all offers except the 20K wus $100 offer. But I just went back to check and it was there. And it showed that it was already loaded, so I guess since I had already loaded the other offers, they automatically included the 20k offer as loaded.Quote:

if anyone is wondering, I did a SCOP last week and got the points. Make sure the cashier doesn't just take it off the bill but rings it through with the code showing free :)
