??? about shoppers bonus Days

[Melody113]

Sorry but until a couple months ago I had hardly used my optimum card as I only had enough to redeem $10. That was until the gang here taught me how to use it and maximize my spending

1:Are they always in cosmetics and fragrance when you spend 75,000 points to get $200 worth?

2: When you use it do you tell the cashier up front you are paying with points?

3: Do you earn more points on the stuff you just bought using your points?

4:If you had to return something how does that work?

5: Are you allowed to use coupons in with this offer or not?

I think that's it but I might be back to add more

1:Are they always in cosmetics and fragrance when you spend 75,000 points to get $200 worth? -
NO, in the past they have been for anything and I hope that they keep that.

2: When you use it do you tell the cashier up front you are paying with points?
I haven't - it comes up on the till that you can.

3: Do you earn more points on the stuff you just bought using your points?
No I don't think so

4:If you had to return something how does that work?
I don't know

5: Are you allowed to use coupons in with this offer or not?
Yes

3 outta 5 isn't bad. Thanks

Also forgot to ask how often these events occur?

I'm curious also on why you don't earn more points as you did buy product

[Toronto Gal]

You didn't buy product, you used your points card to cash in for products. so why do you think you would get points? I think it happens 1 or 2 times a year

Ok that makes sense I was just getting GREEDY

I looked through the threads and found full redemption bonuses (ie you can use your points for anything) 4 times in the last 12 months (December, March, July, and September). There were a bunch of 'cosmetics only' days as well (Feb, May, Sept, Nov).

I'm pretty hopeful that there will be another 'full' redemption day before Christmas - they'd be crazy not to try and cash in on Christmas shoppers (for digital cameras, TVs, etc)
