    Last week, I only received three product-specific offers, and then didn't get any of the usual three one-day wus ones either. I called and was told this is normal, that it happens occasionally to most if not all accounts.

    Since I didn't pay much attention until around mid-year, I don't remember it happening to mine before. So I'm wondering if anyone has kept track enough to tell me roughly how often I can expect it to happen in the future. TIA

    Rather ironically, after a few weeks of no purchases, SDM had an item on sale that I'd have stocked up on if I'd received something like a 20x wus $30 or 8000 wus $40 offer.

    I only get the 20x wus $30 or 8000 wus $40 type of offers about once a month. I also notice that the number of times I get the 20x points on milk has dropped too ... it used to be every week and now it seems to be every 3 weeks.

    I've never tracked it. It does seem to happen every now and then. I have control over my dad and sister in laws shoppers accounts though, so I just use whichever card gets me the best deal. I've never had it that all 3 cards are skunked the same week. It's very handy to sign up a spouse or family member so you have a couple options of offers. Point transfer easily (and instantly) between cards.

    Was there a text Tuesday offer last week? Come to think of it, I don't think so, since it was Thanksgiving, the 'Monday' offer was actually a Tuesday offer last week.

    While I didn't say so, my wife and I have separate accounts. I did use one of her offers, but it was 6k bonus points wus $30. This effectively discouraged me from buying more once I'd reached $30, which left me short of my max. stock-up level. So it would have been nice to have 4 wus offers available on both accounts instead of just hers. Oh well.
