Anyone in QC got their card?I applied the first day in afternoon and still had received anything....
Don't worry it will come. These things are completely random. 2 people in the same area can receive them at 2 totally different times.Quote:

Their Status system is pretty much useless. My mother already has her card, about a week now and her status is STILL the same as yours.Quote:

@sampler -I have the same status and am still waiting:violin:
I took my time applying, waited about a week or two. I just got mine in the mail yesterday. Didn't receive DH's though, which I applied for at the same time.
Do not know if anyone has tried using their gift cards but I saw these two posts on twitter today ...

Hi @Ellenroseman ,
Just got back from @LoblawsON. Trued using wife's $25 Loblaw card we received in the mail for bread price fixing.
Card is activated.
But cashier says you have to use all $25 at once.
Best part? Nobody told customers or store staff!

I didn't know until today
Cashier said store found out when they tried cashing a customer's and had to call head office. [emoji4]

ordered mine on Jan 9th and am still waiting
ordered mine the first day and I'm still waiting, my mom ordered hers around the same time and received hers this week (same city).
That is the same as with the Save on Foods $25. My gut feeling is that is a deliberate marketing ploy on the part of both companies. Who can get their groceries to exactly $25 (before taxes) ... they are banking on most people spending more!Quote:

Friends and coworkers who applied 2 weeks later all received theirs this week!
I've read from at least one person I know on Twitter that you just need to keep track of the balance, as for whatever reason the system does not. She used part of hers with no issue.Quote:

Save On Foods you just buy over $25 then $25 get it taken off automatically.For me self serve register said pay $26.50 then two seconds later it said pay $1.50.Quote:

I bought two orders of groceries. One with my Mother's card a couple of days ago.. and the amount came to about $22. Today with my card (which I received today) I bought $23.42
Also, a co-worker bought lunch from the deli counter with his, and he still has over $15 left on his card.
There is a website and phone # on the card to check your balance... and it's reporting accurately.
So whoever said you had to spend all $25 at once was severely mis-informed.
No one told me anything ... what I said was "I saw these two posts on twitter today" and put it here for comment and discussion. Nowhere did I say it was fact or fiction. So stand down.
