PC Plus Programme

[Angela273]

@samm07 - go here http://guidingstars.ca/ and then pick any random store (loblaws) and sign in using your pc plus username and password. then look for the word LOAD and then click on it until it says loaded. then you can check what other offers are loaded on your card. (you don't need to shop at the store that you selected to get the 1000 bonus points)

for other pc plus offers, normally you can load at pcplus.ca unless stated otherwise. remember to load more offer at pcplus.ca tomorrow/everyfriday.

edited: the small points get award much later, e.g. if you buy 1-star item for 25 points, you get the 25 points much later. but the 1000 bonus points offer for guiding star will show on your receipt.

Thanks. I'll have to check it out tomorrow and see if there are any additional offers for me that I haven't already loaded through the app today.

edit: The website only has the offers that I already loaded on my app yesterday.

I've never tracked if I get the small points from the guiding star items... I might go crazy lol. I'm just more concerned over the bigger or bonus points.

I just loaded my 1,000pt offer. I went shopping on Tuesday and the website has no record of my purchases, i.e. it doesn't have a breakdown of how many items of each star value that I purchased. When I got the bonus amount on Jan 20th from my previous purchases I became aware that it clearly did not reflect the amount and variety of healthy foods that I had purchased. I'm glad to get some extra points, but I wish it was more accurate.

i am also finding this to be the case. i am hoping that when it comes time to award the extra points the system will be accurate even if the website is not. syndi

Ok thank you. By other offers do you mean in addition to the PC points I have on my app? I kid those every Friday. Or does guiding stars have additional ones? I was on there yesterday but only was able to load the 1000 so just wanted to be sure

Sigh. I don't get a 'load this offer' option, no matter which store I click on. And then when I go to my account, the offer is not there

This happens maybe 40% of the time

Try deleting your browser history. Guide Star site seems to be using the same link to contain the offer, and they simply change the description contents. So, the same named link is in your browser, week after week, and when you attempt to reload for the new week, their site believes you've already loaded (which you did in the previous week). Clearing history will remove the link from your browser, as if you've never loaded. Then start again.... I hope this works for you.

@samm07 - if you already load offers every friday at pcplus.ca, then you're set. currently, only the 1000 bonus pts is for guiding stars.


on another note: I saw that RCSS flyer says 5000 bonus points if you spend $30 on cosmetics, etc and then I know zweet has $8 back on 2 loreal skincare totalling $30 --- Do you think Skincare is considered cosmetics, or is there any loreal skincare that falls into cosmetics? I'm trying to see if it can overlap and get rewarded for both

My kids are going to be happy this week. I have 800 pts for blueberries. On sale at No Frills for $1.67 each. Think I am buying $20 Worth! Woohoo!

Been on holidays this month and had really good offers last week and now of course the weekend I'm back they suck lol. Maybe cause its the end of the month and when the majority of most people shop. It did tell me that since this program started I have redeemed $800 points. It's not my main store, but It's far better than Walmart rewards of NOTHING!

Fortino's actually put a link to their store on GS for me to follow this week (in the PC Plus points email) and last. And it worked.

for the guiding stars promo....(100 for each3 star item) if i buy 3 cucumbers would it be 300 points? or only one? or one a day etc? so confusing

The Guiding Points website is a problem. I also had issues at first but it was my fault for not clicking where it says "click to load" or whatever the wording is. You have to sign in to the Guiding Points program but that isn't what loads the points to your card, you have to do that after signing in.

For the 1st in ages I have the spend 100.00 get 10000 points. Too good to pass up and with the beef offer of 200 for every dollar spent it was a good shop. I earned 24000 points.

I got that offer too... however, was a bit disappointed that the container size is only 4.4oz / 125g (not the more std 175g); still at net $0.87ea I may yet pick up a few.

Yes you'll get 300 points total for the 3 cucumbers. Check your PC Plus account about 7-8 days after you shopped-you will see PC Plus points added in by the PC Plus team.

If you were to buy 4 cucumbers, that is likely the limit to get points on that particular item.
