How many offers can we save for next week? Used to be three per week under the old PC Plus. Is it still three?

I was just able to save four offers.

Anyone tried saving offers who's in a household? I'm wondering if the maximum is the same 4 offers for each member (fwiw, that's what I'd guess), or if there's a total (maybe larger then 4?) for the entire household.

In case anyone wants to try changing the offers on an account, it was still possible to do so as of this afternoon as follows. Account A started a household and invited another account B to join, who did and then left a few minutes later. Upon leaving, B got back the exact same set of offers it had before joining, but upon checking about 90 minutes later, those offers had been replaced by a slightly smaller, all-new set. Not long after that though, another bunch of offers was added, giving B about 50% more offers than before it joined the household.

YMMV in terms of getting new offers or ending up with more, but if you don't like any of the ones you currently have, you can try your luck and maybe get some better ones. Be warned though; B lost every pre-household offer.

Perhaps the took the points inquiry down temporarily because they obviously weren't reviewing the requests and were just awarding points. And people are requesting things like two sets of 25K for one shop. Just a possibility.

I got a offer that states 20x the points on cosmetics at Shoppers.

I'm new to shoppers and trying to determine the value of 20x the points can someone help explain this to me.

Thanks,

Let's say you spend $10. 10*15*20=3000 pts for your purchase, which is $3 worth (breakdown: 10*15=150 base points, plus 150*19=2850 bonus points)

I have been on hold for 1h 12min for a points inquiry... If that were the case I wish they would just go through them more thoroughly. My last adjustment was changed within 20 minutes!

Yeah It's been down for quite some time so definitely not fair for points that are deserved. I'd be pretty upset if I had to call and wait that long!

Thank you! So you get 15 points for every dollar spent at shoppers all the time?

Shoppers gives PCO members 1.5% in base points on the rounded down pre-tax dollar amount; so e.g. if you spend $10.88 before tax, you get base points for $10, not $11. So, if we ignore the rounding down for the sake of simplicity, 20x is basically 20 times 1.5% = 30% in points.

Note that you will see posts where points are treated as a discount. They are actually a discount on future purchases, not on the purchase where you get those points.
