Sorry about the above long post. Was trying something new!
I went and use some of my offers tonight. Saving the rest for early in the week after we eat up some of our produce. I planned to price match the Lara bars that are on at Target for 1.50 because one of my offers was 1000pts per bar but they already had them on sale. I bought fifty and got 50000 Pts. I also had 1200 on Burt's Bees and the Pom flavoured lip balm was on clearance for .54! Score! I spent 97.87 tonight I got 84.00 in points. I did not get my personal offer points on the Stayfree or the oranges though so I had to send in an inquiry.

after nearly 8 weeks since my request, I'm happy to report that my PCPlus and PC Debit accounts have been merged into one. Woot!
I was unable to login to either account this morning, nor could I access my accounts via phone help line. Eventually reset my pw, and got in that way, and it appears pts were correctly merged, although not showing up in the transaction history.
The final test will be to see if I can FINALLY redeem pts for a PC GC ... all prior attempts at multiple stores have failed, as an "Insufficient Points" error message appears on cashier screen!!! will this be the day? We'll soon see.
I never get the "X when you spend $X" offers, so I'm just going at it getting a few items here and there. I made $6.50 in points for buying my regular stuff - I have a good number of produce offers and I used a lot of them today. I guess since I'm a loyal customer I don't get the overall order offers? Seems annoying when that sort of thing happens...
Just ONCE I would love claim the personal offers and NOT have to file a claim with them for missing points. Just ONCE. But every single time I have to email them for missing points. Sometimes they don't even bother replying to my missing points email. I am really tired of this bait and switch
I was thrilled to make my trip to RCSS today to PM the PCPlus offers I had loaded ( no tax day too!) Grabbed 4 x 170g blackberries @ $1.44 ea, plus 500 points ea, Asian pears @ $.88 per lb, and 200 points for every $1.00 spent, 8 pkgs cookies
( I know I should NOT have bought these, not the best price ) @ $2.47 ea, get 400 points ea. Used my 2 x $3.00 off coupons on the Royale Tiger Paper towel, and the no tax on that helped ease paying $13.97 for each 12 roll pkg, but then I saw 1,000 PC points on each pack, so nice!
2 x pkg Venus and 2 x pkg Gillette disposable razors @ $6.99 - 4 x $2.00 coupons. I missed out on getting any when WM had them on sale but with the $3.64 in tax removed here I did ok.
Total tax saved today $12.66, total coupons used was $20.00, used my $15.00 PC GC from Air Wick Promo, and cashed in $20.00 in PC points. This was the first time I PM my stuff at RCSS to earn my PCPlus points. The PCPlus programme is looking more appealing to me now.
Are you kidding me Loblaws? Now your points inquiry page is down? I wouldn't need to use it in the first place if you actually gave the points you promised. I'm really tired of this
My brother's account (that I shamelessly use) has had the $10 WYS $50 offer for three weeks running. They just keep changing the expiry date.
this week I got 6000pt when spending $30, with no tax I brought some Lays (500 pt) and some other stuff, so total got 10600pt for buying $34.49 with $0.5 to claim in checkout51
It is quite ironic for a pretty good program to have a really bad system. I hardly ever have to go to Sobeys to manually add points for me. I did my return for the items that did not give me points but I saw CS gave the lady, two customers ahead of me, tel# to call to get points added just like they did for me :lol:. Did not come to my mind otherwise I would ask her to try the inquiry option online which probably is a better way for missing points for the account offers.
Just back from RCSS and IT WORKED! first time I've been able to redeem pts for a PC Gift card. Also used 4 x $5.00 coupons for 4 NeilMed Nasal sprays, and saved $23.63 on those being NoTax day.
Going back tomorrow with my wife in tow, to see what she needs ... armed with Pantene offers, and lots of coupons. ;)
One negative thing to report regards the merging this morning of my PCPlus and PC Debit cards [accounts] ... its like they set me up as a NEW account; sent me an email with new temp pw, and also got an email to load my offers. So my offers of yesterday, Friday, which numbered 20, were gone before I even had a chance to use them, and replaced with only 6 really bad offers, on stuff I've never bought. They looked oddly similar to the ones I first got when joining the program in mid November. Not real happy about this turn of events. I sent an email to the person who notified me the accounts were merged. Now to their credit, they gave me some free pts, for the crazy delay in getting to my request. So at least they're trying to please.
I am going to sign up my husband for a card and see if we can't get the spend so much get so many points offer....cause the offers I have been getting haven't been that great!!!!!!
[QUOTE=sun_shine;5790713] went instore to check if they had the signs and sure enough they did. schweppe's, pepsi, diet, a whole bunch of diff kinds. i got 45 bottles for 67$ and got 92,000 pts (extra 2,000 was manually added by mistake but csr just said forget it, have a good day). i did NOT clear any shelves, got a few from each kind and its for multiple families :). they had a huge mountain of pepsi at front of the store as well for the superbowl promo or whatever it is.
only thing i was dissappointed. csr kept my reciept(by accident) and i didnt notice till i got home so no mail in promo for me.
dh got groceries for me today. All our loaded offers worked (have not had a problem with that yet) but the flyer offer didn't (second time that's happened). The points inquiry worked for me at this time so for those who said it wouldn't load try again now.
Earned 4500 points on food we use/eat (and healthy stuff too) and waiting on them crediting 1000 points for the flyer offer.
ETA: spoke too soon - didn't realize dh grabbed strawberries which was also an offer on my card - so was missing out on 1 card offer and 1 flyer offer :neutral:
by the time i checked out the pepsi , all signage was spend $10,,
had a loaded offer for $6 thousand points buying the club size package of pampers,(the biggest one), didnt get my points and the offer online is still saying loaded,, so i either get my points tommorrow or return item ,, ps i paid with points , hmm i wonder if that is why??
I went to my local store and saw that the 2 litre Pepsi was 2000 pts each. It did not say wus 10.00. I only grabbed 6, wishing I got more now. I had to go to CS to have my points added. Not sure if this was a mistake??? I did see all the other signs of the tostitos, salsa etc of 2000 wus 10.00. Anyone buy the Pepsi and get the 2000 pts automatically?
I doubt it; I imagine it's just like the Lysol where it's supposed to be a WUS thing, but they aren't printing the signs correctly. I'm still regretting not getting more yesterday, and considering going to the other Loblaw's in my city tomorrow. The only thing is, I imagine once one person claims the points in each store, they are probably taking the signs down. So is it worth it to go to the other end of the city when they may have the signs down already? I probably will, because if I don't go I'll always wonder lol.
I don't know what to do. I did a few shops for the Lysol products and paid out of pocket to get the points and at one store they added points at CS and another time they told me to call the PC line. Lady on Thursday said she could only add two of the products and sent in a request for the other 50,000 pts. Today I was picking up a few items and the points were still advertised and also for the Lysol Foam Hand Soap. CS said call hotline. I called and dude wouldn't give me the points. Said it's the stores mistake.
Should I just return items or fight for the points? Not even sure if I will get the ones from Thursday.
the same thing happened to me last week with one of my pre-loaded offers ... the 2,000pts WUS $10 on Cadburys; the store wouldn't / couldn't fix the missing pts, so I phoned and was happy to get a person in under a minute, so they've improved that area significantly. A very helpful "Sam" listened to my story, only needed to know the day, called up the transaction and awarded the pts, which I could see instantly after a screen refresh, being that I was logged into my acct when I phoned.
So maybe try that, rather than going through the aggravation of returning the product to the store CS dept.
Is there a limit for how many points you can earn on one transaction?
Because I purchased 10 Classico sauce jars... And each was supposed to come with 500 points. But, in the end I only got 4500 points, not 5000.
Can someone please explain why this happened?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!
Went to my other local Loblaws to check out the Lysol and Pepsi; nothing with the Lysol but the Pepsi still had the 2000 points signs! I ended up getting 10000 points (got 34 bottles, $51 before tax) so looks like that's definitely what the points are supposed to be (2000 WUS $10), but since their tags weren't down I went to customer service anyway. They called somebody who told them it's 2000 per 2 bottles, so she gave me another 24000 plus I got 10000 from a personal offer. So I ended up spending $57.xx and got 44000 points. Works out to 40 cents per bottle OOP which isn't bad after all :) though the odd looks and weird questions from the cashier weren't fun lol
I think it is a great program but they still haven't worked out the "kinks" yet. I think it's awesome that they do things like that (spend $15 on Lysol, get 5000 points; spend $10 on PepsiCo, get 2000 points) but they are not printing the signs correctly and people are getting confused. Once they've put up incorrect signs, people are entitled to receive the points, otherwise it's "false advertising". I just hope they don't stop offering deals like that because of these issues; it isn't the customers' fault that we're claiming points we shouldn't have received, if they weren't advertised correctly. They have to work on improving this, and I think even floor staff who are posting the signs should be questioning the signs if it seems a bit extreme (i.e. spending $3 on a Lysol cleaner and getting $5 back). Personally, I know if it were me, I would be asking my supervisor if it's right.
However, people not getting points according to personal offers they've loaded... that's a completely different story! I don't know what's going on there or what they need to do to fix it. So far I've only claimed one personal offer, so haven't run into that problem!
I think it's a great program and hope they are able to work through all of the "kinks" and keep it going. It's nice to be rewarded for buying groceries, especially on fresh produce, meats, dairy, etc. where we don't often see coupons.
I got a super fast response to my points inquiry this time as well....under 12 hours. However, I had bought four packs of Stayfree and didn't get my personal offer points. They credited me for only one pack so I had to send in yet another inquiry. Annoying.

Remember to check your offer before you purchase, many of my offers are limited to one! You can buy more, but no points. I am not getting very many offers, so limiting some to one is limiting my shopping with Your Independent. In my area, it is the only store accepting the PCPlus program.
