Is it true -
I had 8k wus $30--- went to SDM to get dessange deal + milk and used coupon for dessange... My subtotal came down to $18.** after applying coupon and code was put 2001 and because of this I was not able to get 8k.
Old system - when they use to apply coupon my subtotal never use to come down using 2001 code n 8k was applied always....
Is this a glitch or we have to live with the fact to get points we have to spend more????
I only like one thing in the new system that now with fpc, you also get points plus one more thing that I noticed that some types of digital offers start working with redemption,
Last time I had offer spend $20 on food and snack and get 4000 points, I loaded it and I spent $105 before taxes,redeemed $85 but still my loaded offer showed up,because I spent $20 extra,before this system if you r redeeming points you never get points for small offers,but now this is happening.
I redeem points 2 times and got loaded points both times
First time spend $10 and get 1000 points and 15x points on Pepsi
Second time spend $20 and get 4000 points...
The only thing I don't like now it takes too long to checkout at shoppers,
First scan all the items then give scannable coupons and if you are redeeming,redeem first and then give coupons at the end.
I always give coupons first so cashier can match them with the products but now if they enter coupons first it does not give any other option for example the system just leads the cashier to checkout process I can not redeem or use scanable coupons if she enters vendor coupons first.
Its getting more complicated before and yes it also change the price to regular price if the product has red stickers😞😞😞

I like last summer's glitch better. LOL! I"ve seen cashiers use a small little handbook that flips and gives instructions on how to use the new system. I don't know about head cashiers/managers.Quote:

But cashiers tell me they received no training and I have a feeling most do not know about the book. It appears to be kept at the cash used where returns have to be made (at least in the store I visited).

She entered 2001 coupon codeQuote:

Anyone have insight on this? I always was able to buy everything at once before.
My SDM makes me use the paper coupons one by one, and has for quite some time now (at least a couple batches of coupons back.) They are pretty sticky on the rules, so I assume they are up to date.Quote:

Might you share how your coupon is listed on your receipt???
Was it the new system?Quote:

I returned my stuff as I did not get the promotion coupon applied... So don't have receipt to show u and I don't remember what was mentioned...http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...516ee6e818.jpgQuote:

For example, one 8k wus $30 would give the points before coupons, say the Monday one 16010, and then the next one say 8k wus $30 Wednesday one, 16210 would award only after coupons. Perhaps you got lucky and always got the points.
Glad you refunded the items, I would too. Thank you for posting.
