I am wondering if anyone here knows how points work at the store level.
If I frequent one SDM for alll of my shopping and accumulate most of my points from purchases at that store....
and then for redemptions I head to a completely different store because it is 24 hours
does that negatively affect my regular store in any way.
My regular SDM is a wonderful place to shop, so if redeeming there is better for that store then I would have to re-think my mega redemption plan.
thanks !This thread is currently associated with: Pharmaprix, Shoppers Drug Mart

No it wouldn't negatively affect either store as each store pays a certain amount of money for the regular and store promotion(20X, spend $75 get 18500, etc) points(individual product bonus points are paid for by the vendors), that money is put in a pool which is then used to reimburse the stores back for the point redemtions. You are giving the store you redeem at extra sales that is all.

That's a topic on it's own - who covers the cost (lost profits) of low margin page 1 sale items when those sales are decided by HO. If it fell solely on the shoulders of the franchise, I would be hiding the bulk of the sale item inventory if I was the store owner.
I don't understand your comment on supercouponers - SDM gets reimbursed by their vendors for the coupons they accept so that does not impact SDM profits?

Supercouponers do cost stores money cause even WM told us that in training. They either clear the shelves, or get the product for free or overage etc and with SDM its a little bit different except for shelf clearing. But since the shelves are clear, or just your average person who purchases the item with out any coupons they pay full price and if there isn't any of the shelf they can't purchase it. With couponers they have to wait to send it in and my WM said once every few months and then it takes a month or so to get the money then they get the money back. When a person pays full price they get the money immediately and can turn it around for day to day operations.

Nope, not to me.
I disagree on the loss - They are making money on the product.
As for the "super couponers". Thats the stores own fault for not limiting it.
But I still disagree on that aswell because the coupons also pay a handling fee so the store does make more money
off of it then the "average" person buying it.Get free gift cards for amazon & paypal. I've earned $100's with the click of my mouse!

the handling fee isn't much .08 cent per coupon or less Walmart said but it's to cover shipping it to them so they either break ever or loss money
