PC Plus Programme

Not True!!! My hubby and I both started with only the app...all you need to do is get a new card and add it to your app. From your app select > More > My account > Cards > Add Card. Now keep in mind I have the android version but pretty sure it looked the same on my old iphone. My hubby's app hasn't worked for weeks, everytime the cashier scans it an error shows up. So we got him a card and added it to the account, we were able to redeem the old points in his account on the new card immediately. :)

I signed up for PC back in May when they didn't have the cards. It's only on my phone. I asked a CSM and they said for me to get a card, I have to use all my points that I have on my 'card' on my phone, and apply for a new card.
Seems wasteful as it also makes me start from scratch with my offers too.

I'm going to wait it out. Every Friday morning, they seem to have issues (because people are loading their offers).

haha ... I can relate, as I've done that several times! btw, I like your Old Mill Bagels 400pts, since our NoFrills has them for $1 this week, so a PM at RCSS would bring it down to just $0.60ea ! We buy that brand all the time, so I'd definitely add a few to the 'bread n pizza' freezer inventory, and YES, I do have a dedicated freezer for 'bread' and like items. ;)

Really glad that I opted to get the card instead of getting the app on my phone.

Still no lettuce offers for me :( Not even spinach or mixed greens. Yet need to buy some this weekend, like I do every week.

My offers are reasonable. I have six offers for fresh produce, which is the usual amount. Sadly, one of them is for peppers. Just bought a four pack of bell peppers yesterday at Food Basics :(

Each week, I have six offers for fresh produce. Would love to have more, as I buy a lot of it.

There are a couple of other offers, that if reasonably priced this week, I might buy.
1,000 pts for Prego pasta sauce
400 pts for Christie crackers
2,000 pts Bounty Mega or Dura towels - Bounty is on sale at Walmart, and with Brandsaver coupons, if RCSS has the same size, could be a very good deal for me.

I have both the app and a card. I linked my card to the app very easily. I did not lose any points or have to start from scratch. In the settings in your app there is an option to enter the card # to link the app to. It was seriously that simple. It links the two together so your offers will be available on both.

This is wrong, you can pick up a card in-store and add it through the app or online in My Account

On Friday morning I never try to use the app. I go direct to the website and download from there. I don't think the app can handle the volume. Once I was so frustrated I deleted the app and reinstalled it & ended up with another number, but my card are linked by my user name and password so it did not matter. I have our debit and Mastercards linked & pay only with MC.

Sadly, one of the best offer lists I've ever had:


Jumbo size Rice Krispies (don't buy jumbo)
Kashi cereal or granola (will be using my Kashi FPC, so a great one)
Oasis juice (just bought juice)
Nestle drumstick (not when it's polar vortex, thanks)
Downy (just bought Gain sheets)
vitamin water
Dove soap or body wash
Lean Cuisine (good time to buy, with them on sale)
Buitoni Pizza
Becel (just bought some. We only buy it like 2x a year)
Strawberries
Raspberries
Blueberries (Apparently, we only eat berries)
High liner

Not bonus points WUS a minimum amount. No Joe Fresh

Just tried to download my offers but apparently it's "not available at this time" :shrug:?

I finally just got back on :) My offers this week:

- 300pts on iceberg lettuce
- 2000pts for every $10 spent on Cadbury
- 2000pts for every $10 on Pantene
- 300pts 6x222mL Coke
- 100pts Yoplait Tapal greek yogurt
- 800pts Smartfood popcorn
- 800 pts Olivina Spread
- 200pts Friskas wet cat food
- 1000pts Monster Energy drinks
- 1400 Breyers Ice Cream
- 400 Sunrype family sixed beverages
- 800 Quaker Granola bars
- 1000 Prego pasta sauce
- 800 Simple OJ or Apple juice
- 1000 Schneiders sausages
- 1000 Nestea or Goodhost
- 1200 Robin hood flour
- 200 Snackpack pudding
- 1200 Jumbo sized Mini Wheats

Just did my shop. Spent $100 and got 10,000 points. Decent, but I really wish they would start giving me the 10,000 wus $50 or $75. lol.

I haven't had a issue with the app on my Blackberry z10

I got lots of crappy offers. It's really discouraging getting such crap offers. I never get the 10,000 pts wus 50 or anything. I'm wondering if its because I shop there a lot. Maybe its time to cut back. I might also get another card for hubby and see if I get better offers. Uggggg

I got 500 points for classico sauce. Not bad when combined with the $2 sale @ Freshco.

Nothing else good.

How I wish we had a RCSS in town, but Loblaws is proving to not be as bad as I had thought. I have noticed that they are getting better at lowering prices enough to get frugalelles ;) like me into the store. Was hoping they'd have some Country Harvest bread with pink sticker, and hooray, they did! 6 loaves @ 50% off $2, with 1000 pts each = essentially free! Woot! Add personalized offer of 300 pts on Aylmer canned tomatoes @ $1, sweet! Spend 9 bucks, get almost $7 back on stuff I use everyday? Yes, please!

The app hates me so I just have them swipe my cc at the start of the sale. Saves waiting for the app to load and I just download my offers from my laptop cause never works when I try to with my phone. And the balance on the app is NEVER right.

Points on Pepsi is better than the 400pts mentioned in flyer but am not desperate yet for Pepsi.
Don't drink Powerade, as I like Gatorade better. Not a coffee person, have not had margarine in how long, won't eat iceberg lettuce (it's water masquerading as a veg), no need for mustard of late unless I delve into Food & Drink recipes which do mention mustard occasionally.
Funny seeing that Arctic Gardens offer-I don't buy stir fry frozen veg but Fortino's has the 1.75kg mixed veg bags (California, etc) marked DNO so I know the large bags won't return once they sell.
Food Basics has a coupon offer for Arctic Gardens @ $4.99. Hmm, not too hard to choose.

I got the following:

200 pt for every $1 on deli meat
200 pt for every $1 on fresh beef
1500 for Windex - $3 sale at Loblaws
800 pt Mr Clean magic eraser
400pt Silk Almond Milk
200 pt Haddad Pita
200 pts Brunswick Sardines
400 pts wonder hotdog/hamburger buns
800 pts scotties
200 pts Golden Mill bread
1400 pts Febreze
100 pts clark beans

Girlyone, I would not mind getting the Mr Clean Magic Eraser offer-family member uses the stuff for his repair tasks while I'd love the points!

Like the hotdog/hamburger bun offer you got!

This is the 3rd week in a row for the 10000 pts WUS $50 for me...

I also got a lot of offers for no name items which I never buy.

---

200pts for $1 Deli Cheese
4000pts for $20 Bulk Food
600pts Secret Scent Expressions Deodorant
600pts Casa Mendosa Tortillas
100pts Clark Beans
200pts PC Frozen Juice
1000pts PC Canola Oil First Pressed
800pts PC butter
200pts for $1 Clementines, Mandarins, Tangerines, Tangelos
200pts for $1 Onions
200pts Brunswick Fillets or Sardines
600pts Raspberries
200pts for $1 Potatoes
200pts for $1 Cauliflower
1000pts Downy Fabric Softener
800pts Blueberries

Beyond the produce offers, not too much excitement. We don't really buy much in bulk foods normally at our local PC store (Independent) but the offer's attractive so I might take a closer look. Any suggestions there?

sorry if this has been asked before, but if there is an offer saying 400pts for yoplait tubes, do I get 800pts if I buy two in one transaction?
it says the offer expires after one use. thanks

I think you will get the points on both, but after that transaction it will be marked as 'redeemed.' It worked that way on bacon for me recently.

200 for every $1 on apples
200 for every $1 on pears
200 for every $1 on peppers
200 for every $1 on tomatoes
200 for every $1 on potatoes
200 Brunswick fillets or sardines
500 weight watcher bread
3,950 for every $20 spent on bulk
200 for every $1 spent on deli

I'm having issues with my card. My email will not confirm. I've tried at least 100 times since the day I got the card, which was the first day they started issuing them. I've called PC three times and they say to just keep trying. One guy said he'd have the confirmation email sent to me. It never came. I can't redeem my points without having my email confirmed first. I have $100 on the card and I want to use it! No sense in continuing to collect if I can't even use them! Anyone else have similar problems? I asked them if I could just get a new card and have my money transferred over, but they seemed confused at what I was saying.

I couldn't get my card to confirm at first, but after about a week, I called them about another issue, and told them couldn't confirm. The person who took my call opened a service ticket for me, and within two days the confirmation email was sent and I confirmed it.

In your case, I would call again and ask to speak with a supervisor. Tell the supervisor you have called three times and still not resolved and that you expect it to be resolved within a couple of days. Take the person's name and if not resolved, called back and ask for person again. Keep bugging until resolved.


But it shouldn't be this hard. Maybe better course of action would be to go to their facebook page (either the Loblaws one or the PC one) and write on their wall with complaint. Sometimes sharing a problem on their social media pages gets quicker resolution, as it is public and when they don't resolve problems, looks bad on them in front of their customers.

Yes you will. Last week I had 600 pts on Smart Ones frozen meals and they were on for $1.88. I bought 6 and got at 3600 points :) But once you use the offer thats it unfortunately :(

They are on sale for $1? Because the flyer says the two pack is $2 and it's the only Dove product listed in the flyer??

For those with a PC Mastercard or Debit care, keep an eye on the points for shopping in store. 5pts/$1 for the debit card and 20pts/$1 for the mastercard. When i checked my account I had not received any points for using my PC Financial card in nearly a month. I submitted a ticket and they were credited, but I shouldn't have to keep asking them to add them :(

I am going to keep a spreadsheet of them because I don't trust their software not to miss some again!
