Another love for new PCplus points!

[couponingtosurvive]

Stocked up on the items lacking in our freezer stockpile... lovely pork chops (believe it was a left over sale from last week), pork roasts and family sized ground beef packs. With the spend $20 receive 5000 points offer it was amazing to get A TON of meat on sale plus all those points (15000). With other offers also today point haul was @26,000. This was my first go at this points program (so similar to Optimum) so hoping to improve as we go. Overall LOVING this new program so far and will go out of my way to shop there if the price is right (like Shoppers) because of those darn points! Being rewarded is great.

how did you get the 15000 pts on the meat. In the flyer it said valid only for 1 transaction???

"5000 points for every $20 you spend on meat. Valid in one transaction." You can spend more than $20 in the one transaction.

LOL, got it. reading too quick and interpreting wrong, so I will still be able to go at end of week and get pts again on another purchase as well!! Thank u

Sorry. They won't give it again. They give one chance for the points for the meat.
Like last week. I read it wrong too and thought I could go back for the spend $20 in produce and get 5000 points deal, again.

So, basically its a ONE TIME ONLY DEAL....earn $5 for every $20 spent...but you can spend like $100 on meat and get $25 in points?

Yeah, I just re-read the flyer myself, as I planned to go back for more, just ran out of time to shop for meat tonight.... SO disappointed.

Great deal on the meat plus lots of PC Plus points!

Thanks for pointing that out. I assumed that all flyer offers could be used multiple times. I'm glad I bought my $40.00 worth of lean ground beef all in one transaction this morning and received 10,000 bonus points!

Yes it is one go/transaction per deal... but they don't seem to have limits (does say they can limit). There was a personalized offer for blackberries selling 3 for $5 and received points for all three (I think it was 500 or 600 points per). Wish you could go back all week to get the same deals, especially on fresh items.

I notice on the receipt it credited the points for the meat in batches of 2500 under each item that was $10 or more. So I bet you could get away with 2500 for each $10. I thought it would be just raw meat from the butchers bit, bit it counted the cooked ham I bought too!

Wow, that's awesome. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for posting, I didn't get this at all when I read their rules on their site, you really clarified things. Now to plan a meat shop.....

I was able to get 5000 points for each 20.00 on Friday from Zehrs and again 5000 points today from RCSS. Not sure if this was a store limit of 5000 points or ongoing through the flyer period.

It seems that when your total meat purchase meets $20, the system 'divides' the 5000 PC pts per meat product. I bought six items in total, each unique item got 833 pts and two of same item got 1668 pts. I was expecting more PC pts for the latter (personalized digital offer) so I had to do the math to find out I only got the 5000 pts for the meat promo. I think I'd rather see the full 5000 pts straightaway so I'd know right then and there I got it, no math required.
