    14 Club Sobeys points = 1 Air Mile. I understand that is better than 20 of some other program's points for 1 Air Mile.

    I was surprised that Club Sobeys is already nudging points conversion and it's only January! I'll be cutting up my cards in March.

    i'm not surprised.. they did this at the sobeys owned thrifty foods locations (and i think sobeys western locations) so it was only a matter of time.. honestly i find the points bonuses not nearly as good and i miss getting a point for every dollar i spend... instead of every $20 i spend.. because often i'm just running in for a few things where my total is under $20

    Shouldn't they have 1 Sobey's point = 1 Air mile? Seems a bit unfair.

    The Thriftys at Quadra/Mackenzie told me that the $'s accumulate weekly so use your card each time during the week regardless if the shop is more or less than $20 because you will get the point(s) at week end.

    This happens at Foodland too.
