It must be a price limit on the sale items. The flyer and the shelf stated a limit of 2... normally when you exceed that the price goes up.

When you get the card in store - is it active as soon as you get it, or do you have to register it online first?

I am doing a shop tomorrow for no tax day.

You need to register it first... and their computers are getting nailed with new people registering.... so the process can take a while

Thanks! I won't bother with the Finish for now then, since I'll be getting the card right then, and won't have time to register it.

The card is active when you get it instore. You can use it, get the points and then register it when you get home. They'll send you personalized offers when you register the card. You will still get the flyer deals without registering.

Hubby got points right away,they scanned the card as soon as they gave it to him.However,there were no key fob things with the card(how do you get those??)and I got the "just this once,you need your own card"when I went back this evening to pick up a few things.I've emailed them for clarification,as I thought that was allowed.The register screen read Hi Jimbob,so I guess it's a dead giveaway,lol.

It is not a limit of 2 per transaction, the poster did that to keep her out of pocket costs down (spend as little as possible, get enough points for a $20 redemption and start again)

Transaction 1
2 quantum finish $5.97 each - 2X $2 coupons... each earns 5000 points... so 10 000 total
2 pizzas $5.97 each earns 5000 points so another 10 000 points
You are now at 20 000 points and that = $20

Transaction 2
2 quantum finish with coupons 10 000 points
2 pizzas 10 000 points...
Now you have a problem.. you cost before tax with the coupons is $19.88 so you need to tack on something to get it over 20
1 palmolive dish soap $2.47 and it gets you 2500 bonus points
Your total depending on where you live and how much tax is will be just over $3 with the redemption and you will have earned 22 500 towards your next transaction.

I like multiple transactions because they keep your OOP to a minimum. At this point you keep going until you run out of coupons or you have enough stock. I hope that helps.

I tried to do this but my PC plus is linked on my PC card, the points didn't show up. When I checked online, it says if you use a PC financial card the points will take a few days to show. I'll bear with it for now as I don't have time to call, busy weekend.

I signed up weeks ago online with no card but they gave me an account number anyways. I had to get a new card yesterday and link my PC MC and the online Plus account to the Plus card. I like how you can customize multiple accounts and cards online for collecting and/or redeeming.

i did it through my debit card, and my debit card also acts as my points card.

note to all: just make sure the cashier swipes your financial card/pcplus card during the transaction before you pay, so that all the points offers are activated. when you go to pay, it is too late to activate all the points on that transaction. learned that the hard way!

Please explain how you use multiple accounts because i am intrigued! :)

You may have a problem. If the cashier did not know you were PCPlus (and told the computer) you might not have got the points. My PCPlus membership is tied in with my PC financial card and when I went to customer service (my bonus points did not register) they had to redo the entire transaction. The computer does not automatically link you, the cashier has to do it.

Maybe cause I haven't had my coffee yet or maybe it's because I'm blonde but I'm a tad confused:lol:. So DH has a PC MC and I registered his card for him. Now I have a supplementary card in my name so can I register MY card # and then the points just go to his account? and can I just get the point card so I don't have to make a CC purchase? I try not to use my CC too much and sometimes would rather pay with cash. Is that possible?

If you log into your app, you can add
PC Plus card
PC Plus eCard
PC Plus keytag
PC Financial card

and use any of them to do your transaction

@Tommycoupons - Just on the phone with the PcPlus guys. Waited about 5-10 minutes on hold. They can only adjust 15k at once and will add remainder after 2-3 days. They were telling me the quantum and pizza are only 5k max bonus points (whether I buy 1 or 10). CSR guy on the phone didn't really sound like he knew what was going on either. He had issues getting the points to show up on my account. What a headache. He is going to investigate it for me. If I don't get it I'll be choked. I can return the Quantum but not the pizza.

EDIT - Just looked at the call log on my phone and that call took 41minutes. Sheesh no wonder their lines were so swamped.
