Kind of amusing to see the napkins offer, as I just purchased a pkg of PC Xmas napkins on clearance for $1.94. The PC juice offer seems to come once within every three weeks. The Wonder Bread offer will be COOL if I manage to get that loaf on the 50% off bakery rack.

Mild envy on those SCers with the Joe Fresh offers! Guess I need to spend on JF and swipe the tag/card to prompt an offer. I'd suggest sweater purchases-have you seen the neon cable knit sweaters on clearance? They are just under $10 now; used to be $14.99. Or pick a spring cardigan or pullover-always good for chilly outings.

Went to Loblaws to claim and offer and AGAIN IT DID NOT SHOW UP ON MY RECEIPT. The FOURTH time in a row.

I literally just got off the phone with them about this problem and they fixed it right away. I asked why it keeps happening but he couldn't answer. Oh well, at least I got my points added, and didn't have to wait 4wks this time. It does kind of stink to wait so long for them to answer the line though. A three minute wait time somehow turns into twenty minutes.

On Monday morning I will be calling them and they'll get an earful. I know it isn't the operator's fault but they need to understand this isn't acceptable. I am actually avoiding Loblaws because of this program that hates me

Q for you: your DH's account, how many times has it been used this year?

I've used my card 7x this year and I have maybe half the offers. I am trying to figure out their system and it is driving me bonkers lol

If you have the 600 pts. McCain Superfries French Fries like I have, be careful it isn't all varieties. It is only the packs that weigh 900g.

Wish someone inside the PC Plus call centre could tell us what it's like administering the points program on their end. If it's an IT issue due to fewer IT staff, then everyone is going to have to decide what's worth obtaining with the program or just shop on No-Tax weekends and forget the program.

@torontogal-sorry to read of the ongoing issues with the program that you are experiencing. Any chance of you cobbling a quick online game based on frustrating loyalty card programs? Just think of when former Toronto mayor David Miller was at City Hall and there was a garbage strike during his second term-a few games surfaced on the theme...

He hasn't used it yet this year. It's actually a PC Financial card which I enrolled to PC plus last month. I made him use it then. I load all the offers every week though. Last week, his offers (and mine) were blah. I think he had only 6 offers last time.

Last time this showed up in my offer list, it was for the 1.2(?) kg pack.

Now it says "Includes Extra Crispy, Super Quick, Red Skin, Sweet Potato, Spicy or Wedges 454, 650 or 750 g" so it's good.

Won't be buying if it's regular price though.

[imagine]

For offers that are spend $x, get xxx points...are these hit or miss when using manufacturer coupons?

I have a personal offer for 6000 points WUS $30 in natural foods dept and have 400 points for Silk almond milk and a few of the $1 off any almond milk coupon from Mini Wheats. Would be awesome to combine them.

I had my 1^st disaster with the program other than the crap offers I have been known to get. Yesterday the site was such a pain, but I faithfully loaded my points from my laptop not my phone and then today watched as nothing showed up. So I checked an none had actually been loaded, so reloaded while waiting at the customer service desk. Customer service desk rep suggested I could call the call centre to have it corrected. She also said I was the second customer in a matter of moments with this issues, so check your receipts. Knowing everyone’s pain with the call centre I returned the items and purchased again and was able to get my points.

You can PM Walmart for $2.47 - I picked up a bag of Extra Crispy and Wedges today, and earned my 1200 points from the personal offer.

I know about myself used my card only one time, and still getting almost same no. and type of offers every week from last 6 month. But too lazy (or always have limited time) to go out of my route just for 1 or 2 things. Just waiting for the time when Nofrill will join the program lol.
